0191 375 5088

Rebecca joined Swinburne Maddison LLP in 2011 where she has since qualified as a Solicitor and completed a Masters in Law. Prior to qualifying as a Solicitor in 2014, Rebecca worked as a Legal Assistant within a criminal and civil litigation team at a law firm in York and also provided debt management advice at Citizens Advice.

Away from the office, she enjoys spending time with her family and is a keen “grow your own” gardener.

A solicitor within the firm’s Real Estate team, Rebecca deals with a range of cross-departmental cases, including commercial and residential property matters for both private clients and registered social landlords.

Rebecca has a particular interest in social housing issues, so much so that at the conclusion of her Masters, she prepared a dissertation which examined the pivotal role of the social housing sector in society today. In her day-to-day work at the firm, Rebecca regularly deals with shared ownership and Right to Buy matters.

She also specialises in adverse possession applications, first registrations based on lost title deeds and lease extensions.

"Having worked directly with Rebecca for a number of years on many transactions we have developed a very good working relationship. I find her helpfulness and courtesy invaluable and look forward to continuing our working relationship."
