Richard Durrant, Partner at Boys & Maughan, explained: “Our work volumes have been growing throughout 2014 and are at their highest for seven years, with us repeatedly breaking our monthly records for new matters and achieving 316 exchanges in July, for example.

“This makes it essential that we keep up with demand. Laura specialises in freehold and leasehold sales and purchases and remortgages. She is known for her high level of commitment to clients and attention to detail.”

Laura Cobb, who is based in our Margate office, said: “Boys & Maughan has an outstanding reputation for the quality of service it provides and I am delighted to have joined the team.”

In July Boys & Maughan was the 82nd largest conveyancer by number of transactions by value across England & Wales. We have also recently been shortlisted in the prestigious national Law Society Excellence Awards for our conveyancing services.
