Ms Love, who has worked in residential conveyancing across Merseyside for more than 30 years, will be based primarily in the law firm’s Crosby office on Liverpool Road

Liverpool law firm Morecrofts Solicitors has recruited experienced conveyancing solicitor Alison Love.

Ms Love, who has worked in residential conveyancing across Merseyside for more than 30 years, will be based primarily in the firm’s Crosby office on Liverpool Road.

Her most recent role was at Black Norman Solicitors, while she has also worked for regional law firms Maxwell Hodge and EAD Solicitors.

She said: “This is still a buoyant time for residential conveyancing and buyer confidence remains high in many areas, which has been further boosted by the first time buyer stamp duty incentive introduced in the last Budget. We are looking forward to being very busy for a long time to come.”

Peter Pownall, head of property law at Morecrofts, said: “Our property team has grown exponentially over the past 18 months, with instructions from residential and commercial clients at an all-time high.

“We felt it was crucial to bring in a high quality, experienced practitioner to help sustain that trend and Alison undoubtedly fits the bill.”
