"Outside of work I enjoy cooking, reading, walking, attending live music events and eating out. I also enjoy spending time with my two grown up daughters, family and friends."
Best thing about your job
"The best part of my job is being able to guide our clients through what can sometimes be a stressful process, by ensuring everything runs as smoothly as possible and updating clients at each stage of the transaction right through to completion."

Really Great Experience
"My experience with Nichola was nothing short of delightful. I was buying my first property, and Nichola explained every single detail of the whole process, communicated with me well, in time, and in a manner that a non-lawyer can understand. Really really great experience."
