TOLLERS Solicitors, whose flagship head office is located at 1 Waterside Way, Bedford Road in Northampton, was founded in 1877. Since that time, Tollers has grown to become a leading regional force in legal practice with a geographic footprint throughout the South and East Midlands.
Tollers, whose full service practice works with both businesses and individuals is particularly well served by its For Business team which is led by Gary Tait and the firm’s Head of Corporate, Craig Harrison. The team specialises in providing practical legal advice to owner-managed businesses and corporates on the wide range of legal issues that inevitably arise through the journey from inception of a business all the way through to exit.
A key practice area to the For Business team is the firm’s Commercial Property business unit. As Tollers Managing Partner Duncan Nicholson announced last month, the practice anticipates an exciting year for its Commercial Property team which has been strengthened by significant appointments over the last 12 months.
The most significant of those appointments in Northamptonshire is the recruitment of Simon Chambers as a Partner. Simon, who is based at Waterside Way is the Head of Tollers Commercial Property practice.
Simon is a highly regarded and accomplished commercial property solicitor, having spent several years working in the Northamptonshire market acting for businesses, developers, investors and other commercial entities across the region. Simon manages a team of lawyers that primarily deal with buying and selling commercial properties, leases, mortgages and secured borrowing, option agreements and a variety of landlord and tenant issues.
Simon said: “I am relishing the opportunity to work with the team at Tollers. I believe in leading by example and showing clients how we can add value to their businesses and organisations.”
Simon’s vision is to build on the firm’s successes in supporting business clients throughout the region by his leadership of a cohesive team of lawyers that deliver commercially astute and client focused advice to Tollers’ business clients and the markets in which they serve.
Simon added: “It is important to recognise that in such a fast-moving legal climate clients will often want much more than traditional legal advice. Commerciality in approach is what many clients now demand and at Tollers we are proud to provide a seamless service with a commitment to resolve issues that our clients face and assist them in making the most of their opportunities.”
Simon’s team in Northampton includes solicitors Afua Akom and Will Grisley and paralegal Leonie Allen. In addition, Tollers Commercial Property Team is able to demonstrate its strength in depth through Partner Kiran Yadav, Director Alan Goodwin, Senior Associates Danielle Sher and Daniel Addrison and solicitor Jenny Dudzinski. Add to that the imminent arrival of another solicitor to the team and it is no surprise that Tollers has the capability to support its commercial client base when it comes to property related matters.
Duncan Nicholson, Managing Partner of Tollers said: “We recognise that a strong Commercial Property offering is absolutely key to our business and to our commercial client base.
“Our heavy investment in personnel to strengthen the team is reflective of that recognition. We are particularly excited to have secured the services of Simon Chambers in Northamptonshire. Simon brings with him a wealth of expertise of the Northamptonshire market and will help to ensure that Tollers continues to provide the highest calibre legal advice to its business clients throughout Northamptonshire and the other markets that we serve.”
Tollers provides its Commercial Property and other clients with a high-quality legal service that is client focused and designed to add value. The firm’s mantra of Exceptional People, Exceptional Service, Exceptional Delivery is at the heart of everything that Tollers offers to the market.
