Gemma Fancini - Residential Property Lawyer - Woodstock Legal Services

Woodstock Legal Services has welcomed more top legal talent to their growing Property Team with the appointment of residential property specialist, Gemma Fancini.


Gemma joins Woodstock Legal as a Consultant Residential Conveyancer, having gained over 20 years of conveyancing experience across the Dorset region, developing specialisms in advising on all aspects of simple and complex residential conveyancing work whilst acting for high-net-worth individuals, investors, and first-time buyers.


Speaking on joining Woodstock Legal, Gemma said: “It took seconds to decide to join. Spending time speaking with Carly [Jermyn] and Simone [Ritchie] about the ambitions of the firm and about the opportunity to join as a consultant proved to be an easy decision to make.


“Having been at my previous firms for over a decade, the move into consultancy at such a positive and ambitious firm represents a natural step for me. I know many uniquely talented lawyers who have already made the step to consultancy at Woodstock Legal, so it’s an incredible time to be a part of an exciting new adventure.”


She continued:


“Having worked throughout the Dorset region for many years, I’ve built wonderful relationships with clients and agents who value personable and proactive conveyancing service.”


Simone Ritchie, Director and Head of Woodstock Legal’s Property Team, said: “We’re over the moon that Gemma has joined our ever-expanding property team. Gemma brings over two decades of residential property expertise and experience and is the perfect person to join and complement our already outstanding conveyancing team.”


Discussing the current outlook for the property market, Gemma said:


“It’s an interesting time for the residential property market at the moment. The challenges the market has faced over a turbulent few years have provided an incredibly busy time for conveyancers and agents across the country.


“However, for me and the team here at Woodstock Legal, our focus is on ensuring our clients receive a seamless client experience.”
