Dally (pictured) has been at Shoosmiths for 21 years prior to getting the to job.
“I am thrilled to be assuming the position of Head of Conveyancing at Shoosmiths. David has done a brilliant job of making Shoosmiths’ conveyancing department the success that it is today,” she says.
The other big changes are at leading firm McMillan Williams (MW) which was bought by Taylor Rose in May last year.
Following the acquisition, both firms are to united under a single brand, Taylor Rose MW, although the new graphic for the renamed operation makes it clear MW is the junior partner.
“I believe we are positioning ourselves on the edge of a market that is undergoing major structural change,” says its CEO Adrian Jaggard (pictured).
“As a modern and commercially focussed firm we are committed to a strategy of mergers, acquisitions and partnering with consultants to accelerate growth.
The pace of growth has been demanding at times, but it is market leading.”
