Battens Office Manager for Bridport, Nicola Pugsley said; “The past year in Bridport has been fantastic, everyone has been so kind and welcoming. We have gained lots of new clients who have popped into the office initially for an informal chat which has led to us acting for them in some capacity. Our door is always open, and we are always happy to see new people for a chat to see if we can assist them. The past year has seen many highlights, including winning the Hat Festival best window display and the Christmas Cheer event where we got to welcome existing clients, meet new clients, and raise money for charity all with a glass of mulled wine!”
Senior Associate Chartered Legal Executive, Michelle Green said; “I have lived in Bridport for many years, and I am thrilled to be able to work in this community with so many friends and familiar faces. Bridport has always been a welcoming town and it is so great to now be able to help and advice those who need it. It is also a chance for us as a company to give back to the local community through pledging our support to some many local causes and events, for example sponsoring the Bridport Carnival and Small World events plus a variety of sports team and the local foodbank.”
