Meet Our Team
Stacey Hardy
I work within the Residential Conveyancing department and ensure that property matters are fully handled through to closure after the transaction has completed. My role involves ensuring all post-completion formalities are dealt with in line with the correct policies and procedures.
Charlie Cothliff
New Business Executive at Farnworth Rose - here to help handle your initial enquiry by making sure you’re connected with the right lawyer and know what any work would cost.
Macey Shian
I'm a member of the Legal Support Team and joined Farnworth Rose in the summer of 2026. Once a client instructs the firm, we’re the people that clients first speak to and their point of contact until the file is handed over to their fee earner. I provide administrative support with new file opening and new client onboarding.
Nimra Akhtar
I work with our litigation team supporting clients through civil disputes. That means reviewing evidence, analysing witness statements, preparing correspondence, liaising with the courts and other parties, and keeping clients updated on where their case stands. Disputes can feel stressful, so a large part of my job is making sure people know what is happening and what comes next.
Linda Simcock
I’m a Wills and Probate Solicitor here at Farnworth Rose, helping clients plan for the future with clarity and confidence. My role involves preparing Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney, making sure people’s wishes are respected and their estates go to the loved ones they intend. I also support Executors with administering deceased estates — easing the burden during incredibly difficult times.
Louise Gray
I’m the Accountant here at Farnworth Rose, responsible for preparing annual budgets, managing monthly accounts, and keeping everything financially on track. From processing invoices and making payments to filing returns on time, I make sure all financial records are accurate and up to date.
Beth Wilson
I am the System Developer and Technical Support Assistant here at Farnworth Rose. From reporting and data analysis to implementing internal processes and troubleshooting tech issues, I’m involved in just about anything that helps the firm operate more efficiently. I also train new (and current) staff, suggest plan and action system improvements, and generally try to make everyone's working lives that little bit easier — professionally, of course (although a sweet treat does go a long way).
Jon Batchelor
I am the Strategic Director at Farnworth Rose. My role is to ensure we have — and execute — an effective growth strategy that supports the firm’s ambitions while continuing to deliver the exceptional service our clients expect and deserve. It’s about building for the future without losing sight of what matters most: quality, integrity, and caring for clients.
Sophie Holdsworth
I am the Operations Manager at Farnworth Rose. I am responsible for keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes. My role is all about improving efficiency, streamlining internal processes, collecting and analysing performance data, and supporting the firm in meeting its regulatory requirements — all with the goal of helping the business grow and perform at its best.
