Five Paper bolsters housing and property team with England hire

Social housing and landlord & tenant specialist Elizabeth England has joined Five Paper.

The set said her arrival “adds further strength and depth to the pool of exceptional juniors we already have in the Property Team of chambers”.

In 2005 England was part of a government pilot scheme providing housing law advice via webcam to members of the public. She qualified as a solicitor in 2008 and as a solicitor-advocate in 2012.

In 2014 she was called to the Bar and “is now a sought-after advocate for both social housing and residential landlord & tenant matters”, Five Paper said.

David Portch, Senior Clerk at Five Paper, said: “The recruitment of Elizabeth is a testament to our strength in the housing and property fields, helping us maintain a high quality service to our clients in these areas”.
