The growing Southampton-based team at Foot Anstey was bolstered by the arrival of Helen Dickie and Simon Beetham. Dickie joined the team in January 2024 from an in-house position, contributing her broad expertise in advising institutional landlords and occupational tenants. Beetham joined from Moore Barlow in August 2023, bringing his experience in adverse possession claims and fire safety issues. Described as ‘an exceptional lawyer’ and ’a legend in the industry’, practice head Kate New is another addition to the firm, having joined from Osborne Clarke LLP in July 2023.
