Nicola Chard

Nicola Chard

Nicola is the founder Director of B Legal Limited and has been qualified for more than 20 years! Legal Director of Household Mortgage Corporation Limited, First National Bank PLC, then GE Consumer Finance (as it was then) and running her own consultancy business, Nicola set up B Legal in 2005 and is instrumental in its growth.

Specialising in a range of commercial law including business contracts, general business advice, property law and most types of litigation, she is valued for her ability to give clear, user friendly advice to her clients and business partners and has an excellent reputation for delivering within pressing deadlines.

A mother of four, Nicola spends a lot of time supporting her family, cooking, driving and separating the Chelsea and Arsenal Fans. She is a qualified hockey coach and umpire, plays the Classical Guitar and is, we hear, a competent plumber and wine taster!

Manisha joined B Legal Limited in 2006 as a Director having previously practised in a prominent law firm in the Thames Valley.

With over 10 years' of experience as a property lawyer in both Residential and Commercial Property including purchases of business, company formations Manisha uses that experience to manage the Property Department and team of legal personnel providing services to individuals, developers and business partners.

Outside B Legal, Manisha enjoys cooking, the theatre and travelling. She also endeavours to entertain her husband's over-zealous outdoor pursuits!

Andrea Lee

Andrea Lee

As Head of B Legal's New Business Development Department, Andrea is responsible for identifying opportunities for B Legal's growth and for developing new client relationships. As a solicitor with a background in commercial legal advice, litigation and property law, she is ideally placed to introduce new clients to the exceptional legal services offered by B Legal.

Andrea lives life to the full and is an enthusiastic sportswoman and fan. She uses every spare minute away from the office to pursue her many hobbies which include netball, travel, theatre and following Formula 1.

Karen White

Karen White

Karen has been a residential conveyancing solicitor since qualifying in 2000. Having qualified and worked in private practice until September 2007 where she gained experience in all types of residential conveyancing work, she then joined B Legal.

Working on primarily complex residential conveyancing transactions, Karen's expertise is in Security management, New Build, Equity Release, Shared Ownership and Leasehold and large property acquisition.

Outside of work, she is a voracious reader, particularly crime and thriller fiction, with the odd sporting autobiography for good measure! Being educated in the rules of cricket and rugby she now thinks of Twickenham as home away from home.

Priscilla Sinder

Priscilla Sinder

Priscilla qualified as a Solicitor in 2006 and trained in private practice in Sudbury Hill before commencing employment with B Legal Ltd in October 2006.

A Residential Conveyancing guru, dealing with both contentious and non contentious residential property work, Priscilla is known for her quiet and serene approach to life and work and has combined her legal and management skills to design and implement the new B Legal case management system (even though declaring herself a technophobe!)

A keen cook Priscilla also is qualified in Indian Classical Dance... though she has yet to be persuaded to demonstrate her skills on this front.

Dharmesh Bhula

Dharmesh Bhula

Dharmesh is in a somewhat unusual predicament of being B-Legal's only male Solicitor! He has acquired experience in corporate, commercial, civil litigation and employment matters since qualification and continues to act for clients across a broad range of issues.

Dharmesh is a keen outdoor enthusiast and weather permitting, he enjoys fishing, camping, hiking and mountain biking.
