Career
Holly is a shining example of what makes PDT different. Proactive, engaging and bright, she has a thirst for learning and a drive for improvement meaning she goes that extra step which makes a big difference to a client.
Holly acts in the sale and purchase of businesses in the healthcare sector, and also deals with all associated real estate matters, which include lease assignments, new leases and freehold commercial property acquisitions. Holly also deals with secured lending matters, acting for banks on transactions in the healthcare and charitable sectors. Holly works more generally in the team too, assisting on various commercial property matters including lease work and on deals in the residential development sector.
A self-confessed lover of the ‘to do list’ and her daily planner (which she couldn’t live without!) Holly is organised inside and outside of work. In July 2019 Holly was elected to the Law Society Council for a four year term as Council Member for Outer Sussex, representing members of the legal profession across the south coast from Hastings to Chichester.
Holly also runs a networking and marketing forum internally for female fee earners and the PDT Future Leaders group.
