Karen Lacey
Senior Conveyancing Assistant
Karen joined SP Law in 2015 after previously working at 2 other large regional law firms. Karen has been involved in conveyancing since 1992 and provides invaluable support to the conveyancing fee-earners within the team. Karen is usually the initial point of contact within the conveyancing team dealing with any initial enquiries received from the public. From here Karen assists the fee-earners in most aspects of a transaction right through to completion and, where applicable, dealing with the land registry to facilitate registration of a transaction.
Outside of the office, Karen has just completed 25 years voluntary service to Girlguiding UK. Karen admits that she does not play tennis but absolutely loves Wimbledon fortnight and was fortunate enough to be present on Centre Court when Andy Murray won his first Wimbledon title in 2013, an experience which Karen says she will never forget. The other love of Karen’s life is her Lhasa Apso named Alfie. Anyone who knows Karen knows that they cannot have a conversation with her without reference to Alfie!

Mark and Karen were smooth and clear in their communication throughout. At times of stress they were reassuring and incredibly useful and clear in their advice. My family regularly use SP Law as our solicitors. And I would most definitely use them again.

Genuinely Reliable and Professional Service
Sp Law have dealt with many things for myself and my family: Wills, POA, Probate and Conveyancing. All have been carried out with due care and professionalism.
There has in every case been a direct line of communication and it was never too much to take the time to explain things.
I would highly recommend Sp Law.

Property Sale Service
SP Law (Mark Normansell) had diligently and competently handled a house sale for us over 10 years ago when overseas communications were certainly more complicated, and not as fast and easy as today.
We were not disappointed this time either as Mark Normansell ably assisted by Karen Lacey were well organised and handled matters quickly and without fuss. This was despite us once again not being present in the UK for the sale.
All the documents and exchanges required were clearly indicated and followed up, and we had a trouble and worry free sale expertly handled.
The final costs also came in as per the original detailed quotation, which was noted and appreciated.
We would highly recommend Mark Normansell and team at SP Law as professional and reliable Solicitors, and thank them for the excellent work done for us!

I must say that their professionalism and quality of service were outstanding. They were very efficient and provided a smooth and stress-free experience throughout the process.
