Bio

I joined Porter Dodson in April 2016, having started my career as a legal secretary and then progressing to become a legal assistant. Throughout my career, I have always worked in the legal profession and, for the majority, under the umbrella of property law.

My role is to assist Michelle Wilson, Partner and Head of the Residential Property Team with all aspects of residential conveyancing, including sales, purchases, remortgages and transfers of equity. I also deal with Land Registry applications.

From a personal point of view, I appreciate that moving home is stressful at any time of life and I enjoy making the process as straightforward as possible for our clients.

In my spare time, I enjoy travelling in my motorhome across the UK, discovering new places with my husband and pet Chihuahua. I also enjoy cycling, reading and spending time with friends and family.

Testimonials

Efficient and very helpful though the whole process of conveyancing for my house purchase.

Robert

We cannot speak highly enough of Michelle Wilson and Sonya Bailey who gave us great service for the purchase of our house. It was quite a challenge with us currently living abroad. They were very professional at all times and were always able to answer our questions. Michelle gave good advice and provided clear reassuring guidance. They are a credit to Porter Dodson, we would certainly recommend.

John

I wanted the best, and that is exactly what I got. Outstanding service, efficient with expert knowledge which enabled them to deal with any hurdle that came their way. I was nervous in selling, but putting it in the hands in a quality solicitor took all that away. I am so grateful to Sonya and everyone at Porter Dodson and would not hesitate to recommend.

Caroline H

We were very pleased with the support we received from Michelle Wilson at the Poundbury office and her paralegal Sonya Bailey who acted on our behalf during the sale of a property. Everything was handled efficiently and there was good communication.

Residential Property Client

A huge thank you to Michelle Wilson and Sonya Bailey, who were able to assist us on an auction property purchase that our normal solicitors couldn't assist with. Not only were they both extremely professional, but the communication was truly phenomenal and we were able to exchange and complete on the deal in under 14 working days. I couldn't recommend Michelle, Sonya and the team enough and look forward to many future deals together.

Shaun

I have used Michelle and Sonya at the Poundbury branch for several sales and purchases and they have always been thorough and reliable in their dealings. They have provided helpful advice and kept the pressure on other solicitors to ensure that the conveyances have proceeded as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Andy

Both Michelle Wilson and her paralegal Sonya Bailey conducted the sale of my property in a very professional, polite and friendly manner. I would highly recommend this firm.

M Collard

Excellent service throughout.

Michael & Jane

Many thanks for all you did, you kept us in the picture at all times and were always happy to answer any of our questions and see us when we popped in and kept us as sane as possible during the sale and buying of our properties.
