Charlotte Turner has become the first trainee at Hale-based Blackstone Solicitors to qualify as a solicitor.
The 27-year-old, who studied at Imperial College London, will now be joining the firm’s litigation team.
Set up in 2010 by Emma Nawaz, Blackstone specialises in dispute resolution and has recently opened a property department.
Nawaz said: “My sincere congratulations to Charlotte. I am so proud of what Charlotte has achieved over the past two years. Her knowledge of commercial litigation and possession proceedings is exceptional.
“Charlotte was instrumental in winning a Court of Appeal case during her training. Undoubtedly her tenacious approach and real eye for detail will prove an asset to our team. Well done Charlotte.”
Turner added: “I am extremely proud to have qualified as Blackstone’s first trainee and I am delighted to be joining the litigation team.”
