Rix & Kay announce raft of new joiners

Leading regional law firm Rix & Kay has announced a number of new hires as it continues to grow its business across the region and offer enhanced services to clients. The announcement confirms the hire of two new solicitors, three new trainee solicitors and five other legal professionals.

Georgina Henderson joined the firm as a solicitor at the start of 2024. Georgina joins Rix & Kay’s Commercial Property team and is based in the firm’s Brighton & Hove office. Georgina joins from regional firm Mayo Wynne Baxter.

Commenting on the firm’s latest hires, Richard Cripps, Managing Partner said,

“I am delighted to welcome Georgina to our team. Her decision to join us aligns perfectly with our values of being Committed, Expert, and Transparent. Both individuals embody the qualities we seek in professionals who can truly make a significant and positive impact on both our clients and our business. I am enthusiastic about the contributions they will make and extend my best wishes for their successful careers within our organisation.

“At Rix & Kay our commitment to hiring exceptional talent remains steadfast as we strive to strengthen our teams and enhance our overall practice. We are dedicated to fostering a workplace that upholds our values, providing a supportive environment where every team member can thrive, regardless of their job title. Central to our commitment are robust training programs and mentoring initiatives that unlock the full potential of our staff. Additionally, our embrace of hybrid and flexible working options underlines our belief in promoting well-being and enabling our people to work in ways that suit them best. This approach not only cultivates an inclusive and authentic culture but also contributes to better business outcomes.

“The success of our approach is evident, and we are excited to announce the upcoming appointment of other senior hires very soon.”

Rix & Kay’s latest hires follow an exceptionally busy year for the firm that has seen no less than eight other professionals join the firm in the last six months.

In October the firm appointed three new trainee solicitors with Morgan Prior, Jordan Ismail and Jonathan Laws all commencing a two-year training contract.

Rix & Kay also boosted its Residential Property team with the recruitment of two new conveyancing professionals and paralegals. Bishoy Amin and Charles Hincks recently joined the firm. The firm’s Private Client team has also welcomed a new joiner: Michaela Packham as a probate executive.

Earlier in 2023, the firm announced the lateral hire of Family partner, Rebecca Jones, who joined Rix & Kay from Brachers, alongside other new hire Leah Norton who joined the firm’s Private Client team.
