I qualified as a solicitor in 1980 and joined the firm in December 2000. I specialise in commercial property matters, including land acquisition and disposal, options, and landlord and tenant issues.
I have many years’ experience of property transactions, and based on that experience I am good at problem solving. I enjoy working with clients to achieve their goals.
As head of our education team I have been responsible for the property work in Academy Conversions. I have built links with schools converting to Academy status who have praised my work with them.
I often visit clients at their place of business. This gives me valuable insight into the clients’ business and assists in meeting their needs.
I am based in the Taunton office and have strong links with the local community. I was a trustee of Age Concern Somerset and am currently a Trustee of Mary Street Unitarian Chapel.
Wouldn't go anywhere else. Have used Porter Dodson on many occasions. In my opinion, always money well spent.
The whole process was very well conducted by a very professional and approachable solicitor.
Lesley Gaskell is well regarded.
