at Ansons Solicitors
Cannock and Lichfield law firm, Ansons Solicitors is celebrating
Sarah Popp's achievement of completing 25 years within the legal
profession.
Sarah, who lives in Lichfield, commenced her legal career in
Cannock for Haden & Stretton Solicitors as an articled clerk.
Sarah's career took off at an early stage when she was sent
to run a new office in Hednesford, just 18 months into her
career.
In addition to commercial property law, Sarah used to advise on
family law and accident claims. Sarah became a partner at Hadens in
1992 and was one of the founding partners at Ansons Solicitors
which was formed in 2004 as a result of a de-merger from Hadens.
Today Sarah heads Ansons Solicitors' commercial property department
in Cannock and is instrumental in the firm's strategic
planning.
Sarah commented: "I have seen a great deal of positive change
and development within Staffordshire over the last 25 years,
particularly since the Toll Road was opened. It has been
tough recently but the last three months have seen Staffordshire's
commercial property market bounce back, which could well be one of
the first real signs of a recovery taking shape".
Senior partner Simon James said: "Sarah has established a
reputation as being one of the top commercial property solicitors
within the region. Sarah's extensive local contacts and her
role in acting for a number of key local property developers,
builders and investors is a real asset to Ansons Solicitors".
When asked about future aspirations Sarah said: "I'm excited
about the future and I remain focussed on growing Ansons
Solicitors' commercial property department in Cannock by continuing
to strengthen relationships with property professionals active in
the area over the years to come".
