Matt Groom
Trainee Solicitor - Real Estate
"I am a trainee solicitor (training via the apprenticeship route) currently in the Core Real Estate team, working on commercial property transactions. Prior to joining the Real Estate team, I worked in the firm's Corporate team for over 2 years. I have also previously worked in both regional and national law firms.”
After opting against the traditional university route, I started my legal career as an administrator in a corporate team in early 2019.
I was shortly after promoted to paralegal and began to undertake the apprenticeship route towards qualification as a solicitor in 2020. I am undertaking the SQE route to qualification as a solicitor and will qualify in 2027.
I have a large breadth of experience working on corporate transactions, ranging between small scale sales, up to multi-million pound acquisitions.
- Advising and assisting on the sales and acquisitions of multiple care home franchises.
- Advising an energy company on multiple sales of their subsidiary companies.
