Nicola Clarke

Leading Nottingham-based law firm Nelsons has bolstered its commercial property team with the appointment of a new expert.

Nicola Clarke, who previously spent almost four years working for Nelsons as both a residential conveyancer and trainee solicitor, has re-joined the team a year after qualifying.

Nicola, who has expertise in property finance and secured lending, as well as general commercial property transactions, said: “Returning to Nelsons was an easy decision for me to make as I loved my time here before. It is a really exciting time to be joining Nelsons – the Nottingham office has just undergone a complete refurb, our new branding has recently gone live and Nelsons is continuing to invest in IT systems and technology.

“Nelsons has a well-established and well-respected commercial property department across all three of its East Midlands offices and I’m delighted to have joined the Nottingham team. I pride myself on delivering a high-level service.”

Nicola studied law at Nottingham Trent University, before graduating in 2011 and gaining her LPC from BPP University Law School in 2014. She said: “Working as a residential conveyancer before qualifying as a solicitor laid good foundations for a career in property law. My favourite part of the role is completion day – it’s a great feeling getting a deal over the line and delivering the news to the client.”

Riaz Dudhia, head of Nelsons’ commercial property department, added: “We are delighted to welcome Nicola back to the commercial property team in Nottingham. Her experience and expertise is a great asset to the department and I am looking forward to seeing her flourish in her new role.”
