FRANCESCA ANGELUCCI has been appointed as conveyancing specialist at law firm Watson Burton.

She has moved from Dickinson Dees to lead Watson Burton's conveyancing unit, which specialises in buying and selling properties.

After graduating from university, Ms Angelucci trained at Berkshire firm Dexter Montague, but decided to return to the region after qualifying as a solicitor to focus on residential property law.

Keith Hately, head of the private client department at Watson Burton, said: "Francesca has the personality and experience to ensure clients receive best attention from beginning to end."
