Sheffield’s Taylor&Emmet LLP is adding three new faces to its property management team to meet rising demand from clients across the UK. A solicitor and two paralegals are joining partner, Cassandra Zanelli, to meet increasing interest in the firm’s advice for landlords, property agents and leaseholders. Specialist solicitor, Liz Rowen, will be handling complex litigation cases in both the First-tier Tribunal and county court, dealing with issues such as insurance arrears and breach of leases. She worked previously for a niche property management firm in Nottingham, handling mainly service charge and ground rent matters. Paralegals Patrick Macken and Katerina Woodcock will be focusing in all types of debt recovery, particularly in the areas of service charges, ground rent and tenancy arrears. Before joining Taylor&Emmet, Katerina held a similar role for a solicitors firm in Hull. Patrick worked at Sheffield Magistrates Court as an administrative enforcement officer. The firm has also promoted property management paralegal, Alex Byard, to litigation executive. She has experience in dealing with the recovery of service and rent charges, and will work with managing companies, agents and landlords.
