starting the firm in 1988. While Martin excels in all areas of the law, he most enjoys being in a courtroom. He

Society. His book of legal precedents was published in 2007 also by the Law Society.
Rachel Smith
Conveyancer
Rachel helped set up the firm in 1988 and provided all the back room support for the practice. After providing
secretarial support for other lawyers within the firm for some years she moved over to "hands on" legal work in
house buying and selling. She has no formal legal training but has a loyal following of very satisfied customers who
are testimony to her conveyancing skills. She and Martin celebrated their 25th wedding anniversay in 2003.
