Leading Essex-based law firm, Palmers Solicitors, has made another significant investment in its talented team with the promotion of Lorna Boorman to Associate Solicitor.
With over 10 years of experience in estate planning, Wills, trusts, probate and older client services, Lorna joined the firm in 2023 – making a splash in the department as a solicitor and building her own client base.
Stepping into her new role, Lorna is spearheading an internal initiative to boost cross-team collaboration and communication with a view to creating opportunities for the firm’s growth and further investment in skills.
Lorna will also continue to market and develop the firm’s Private Client service line at its South Woodham Ferrers Office, focusing on building relationships in the local area.
The move comes as the firm’s Private Client team undergoes significant growth – a demonstration of Palmers Solicitor’s dedication to the community and local people.
Donna Smy, Supervising Department Director in the firm’s Private Client team, said: “Lorna is a hugely valued and successful member of our team, so it’s an honour to offer her this opportunity and have her continue her career with us.
“Her promotion is thoroughly well-deserved and a sign of her talent, skills and standing within the team.
“However, it also marks a wider drive to grow our Private Client offering and further enhance what we offer to people in the community – whether that be planning their estate, writing their Will or helping loved ones through the probate process.
“This comes back to our fantastic team. We’re all exceptionally proud of the work we do and our shared approach to professional development and peer support – and we will certainly look to continue investing in our staff!”
