Thursfields welcomes new lawyer

Thursfields Solicitors has appointed an additional lawyer in its commercial property department, working principally from the company’s Birmingham office.

Parmveer Virdee, who studied law in the city at the University of Birmingham and the University of Law, joins Thursfields from Pickerings in Tamworth.

Her appointment further strengthens the commercial property team which has once again seen its turnover grow, this time by 14% in the last financial year ending April 2019.

Tony Gibb, who heads up the commercial property team at Thursfields, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Parmveer to our growing team. She has picked up some valuable post-qualification experience and we will be looking to build upon her existing knowledge and skills to help the team achieve strong turnover growth again this year.”

Ms Virdee said: “I decided to move to Thursfields for the great training and business development opportunities it offers. I also wanted to gain exposure to different types of commercial property matters to expand my knowledge base and I’m looking forward to being part of the firm’s growth and development.”

Ms Virdee is one of several key appointments Thursfields has made in the first half of 2019, taking overall staff numbers to 155 at its seven offices in Birmingham, Solihull, Worcester, Kidderminster, Halesowen, Sedgley and Stourport-on-Severn.
