Laura Finnigan

Senior Associate Solicitor

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I am a Senior Associate Solicitor for the Residential Real Estate team, based in the Chelmsford office, qualified and experienced in assisting clients within all areas of residential property including selling, buying, remortgaging and transfers of equity. I really enjoy the fast paced nature of residential property and helping clients to achieve their ultimate goal, whether that is moving into their dream home or selling property in difficult circumstances. My aim is to guide clients through the process and make it as stress-free as possible. Qualifying as a solicitor in 2006 I have worked both in central London and East Anglia, acting for high-net-worth individuals in high-value transactions. I seek to offer a more bespoke service to my clients, tailored to meet their needs and achieve a strong working relationship. I enjoy adventures with my family, whether it’s day trips or holidays – we particularly love exploring the North Norfolk coast. When we are not adventuring, I am a member of a local book club and love to curl up with a good book at the end of a busy day.

Laura Finnigan

Laura Finnigan has been very helpful and conscientious throughout the transaction, involving the selling of part of the garden to our next door neighbour. In particular , she sorted out the problem with the land registry and kept us fully informed throughout.

Conveyancing for Wix Abbey

Laura has been exceptionally professional and a pleasure to work with throughout a relatively complicated purchase with multiple titles and land registry issues. Laura manages the process very well with us as well as the vendors solicitors whilst also managing the sale of another property and refinancing a third one. We could not have been happier with Laura’s considerable efforts.

house move

My solicitor for a recent house move was outstanding. Laura Finnigan of Birkett Long was approachable, always quick to respond, efficient and reliable. She was also very knowledgeable and reassuring when my long and complicated house chain hit problems. I am grateful to her and her team for helping me, and for making the process as stress free as possible.

Absolutely exceptional from start to finish! I moved to TSP after a slow response rate from the existing legal firm that I used for many years and after multiple recommendations from friends . TSP handled both the sale of a large residential property and the onward purchase on what turned out to be a little bit of a rollercoaster. TSP managed our sale perfectly with sound advice and great communication. With regards to the purchase, Laura quickly identified an issue within the paperwork and protected me. She reviewed the seller's solicitors legal documents spotting further mistakes and inconsistencies highlighting the necessary corrections. We eventually achieved everything we needed to safely buy our dream barn... and then our chain fell apart with 2 weeks left before the buyers mortgage expired. I spoke to our buyer over the weekend and struck a deal to buy their property to keep the sale alive but at the cost of buying our barn. I phoned TSP on the the Monday and said, can you help me buy a property in 9 days! After the initial shock, there were a few questions and they said, we can certainly do our best and try! That's exactly what they did and were phenomenal.. We bought our buyers property and they in turn bought ours.. Can't thank Laura and her team enough!

Our main contracts for two property sales and one purchase were Laura Finnigan and Verity Lambert. Both were excellent at keeping us informed and up to speed on developments. There were complications to be resolved and they were, coolly, calmly and professionally. All the team we dealt work were equally helpful. A pleasure to work with them all.
