Three Balfour+Manson trainees move to NQ roles

Balfour+Manson's three second-year trainee solicitors have been appointed to qualified positions within the firm as they become newly qualified solicitors from today.

Taylor Henry, Klaudia Wasilewska and Emily Deans have all come through a challenging traineeship dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ms Deans joins the Edinburgh Family Law team, where she spent part of her traineeship, while Ms Henry will work in the Private Client team and Ms Wasilewska in the Medical Negligence and Personal Injury team, where she has already spent 12 months.

Elaine Motion, chairman of Balfour+Manson, said: "I am so delighted that Taylor, Klaudia and Emily will remain as highly-valued members of the Balfour+Manson family. 

"When they joined us in August 2019, none of us had any idea that their traineeship would be like no other, with almost three-quarters of their two years taken up by the uncertainties and difficulties of the pandemic. They have made it through really tough times and shown great resilience and team spirit, as well as impressive legal skills."
