Contact Kerry

I am a Solicitor working within the Corporate & Commercial Team at our Head Office in Bury. I assist with a broad range of business-related matters, including drafting Shareholders’ Agreements and Articles of Association, as well as reviewing and preparing commercial contracts. I also support the team with share sales, purchases and company restructurings.

I joined Butcher & Barlow in 2023 as a Trainee Solicitor. During my training contract I gained experience across several departments, including Residential Property and Employment, before qualifying into the Corporate & Commercial Team.

I graduated from Edge Hill University in 2021 with First Class Honours in Law and went on to complete the Legal Practice Course and a Master’s Degree in Legal Practice at the University of Law in Manchester. While studying, I volunteered at the University’s Law Clinic and at the Citizens Advice Bureau in Bury. These roles gave me practical experience across a variety of legal issues and deepened my understanding of the challenges faced by the people in my local community.

Outside of work I enjoy going to the gym, reading and spending time with my friends and family. I’m also a member of my local tennis club and spend much of my spare time there.

    What our clients say about Kerry

    I have just had a new commercial agreement signed off with an extremely large company, which was handled by Kerry. She was exemplary in dealing with the massive twenty seven page agreement that was sent to me, handled the whole thing quickly, expertly, and left me with a feeling of absolute confidence that the agreement protected me and my small company. I would 100% recommend Butcher & Barlow to anyone requiring legal expertise on either a business or personal basis.

    Thanks to both Kerry and Mohammed. Kerry was timely, helpful and professional with her responses. Mohammed clarified any queries that I had in a way I could understand.
