Private client specialist returns to mfg Solicitors

Law firm mfg Solicitors has strengthened its private client team with the appointment of partner Tracy Ashby.

Tracy returns to the firm after previously working at mfg between 2006 and 2017.

Since then, she has held senior private client roles at a number of regional law firms, most recently leading a team at FBC Manby Bowdler.

Based in the firm's Birmingham office, she will work alongside head of department Valerie Robinson, advising clients on inheritance tax, estate administration and a range of complex private client matters.

Her appointment further strengthens mfg Solicitors' private client offering, which operates across the firm's network of offices in Birmingham, Worcestershire, Shropshire and the Black Country.

Tracy said: “I was delighted to have the opportunity to return to mfg Solicitors. 

“I rejoin a firm that has grown considerably over the past nine years but still maintains its core values by putting its clients at the centre of everything it does.

“Having worked in the Birmingham area for the last few years, the move felt like the right fit at the right time. 

“The firm has evolved significantly and it’s exciting to be part of that continued growth.

“Valerie and I work extremely well together, and alongside the wider team of partners and specialists, we are set up perfectly for the future to deliver the highest possible service to clients across the region.”

mfg Solicitors has offices in Birmingham, Worcester, Kidderminster, Bromsgrove, Ludlow, Telford and the Black Country.

Valerie Robinson, partner and head of the private client department at mfg Solicitors, added: “Tracy is a sought-after solicitor who has earned the trust of hundreds of clients over many years.

“It’s a huge plus to welcome her back to the firm after almost a decade away. 

“She is already making a significant impact, both internally and with our clients. 

“She is also part of our growing Birmingham office, which continues to go from strength to strength and will only get stronger with someone of Tracy’s calibre in the team.”
