Elliott Costa LLB LLM

Director

Elliott qualified as a Solicitor in 2001.  He joined the partnership in 2005 with degrees from both Queen Mary & Westfield College and the prestigious University College London.  With responsibility for the wide areas of conveyancing and commercial property, it’s not surprising that he’s known for arriving into the office bright and early each day!

Elliott describes the firm as ‘contactable’ – a feature so often lacking in legal firms. His approachable manner makes him a popular choice for clients seeking advice on more personal matters than property, such as probate, trust deeds and powers of attorney.  He provides a personal service to patients at the Margaret Centre, a local hospice, helping them to prepare their wills in the most comfortable and stress-free environment possible under those circumstances.  He has been the firm's COLP (Compliance Officer of Legal Practice) since January 2013.

He likes to travel and although he has travelled far and wide, he has always lived and worked locally giving him an excellent knowledge and insight of the area.

He’s also proud of what he’s achieved in business.  He’s helped to create an environment working with fun people, and his colleagues make his job enjoyable. 

Outside of work he enjoys spending time with his family.

Nicola Taylor LLB (Hons)

Director

Nicola qualified in 1999 with a law degree from Nottingham Trent University and was introduced to commercial property work at Herbert Smith.  Her success there, at one of the world’s leading law firms, provided a contrast to her work at the National Union of Teachers for the East London region.  The wealth of experience she gained prompted her to set up her own practice, creating the largest law firm in the area. 

Nicola’s main role involves purchasing properties and conveyancing.  She works closely with some of the UK’s major property developers, acting as their buyers’ solicitor.  Nicola meets tight deadlines throughout the year - in particular during the property developers’ year end.  She also takes responsibility for all aspects of client care, ensuring that her large client base remains happy. 

Nicola has many achievements to her name, her proudest being the launch of her law firm in 2005.  She also wears the crown of highest achiever in the whole of the UK on her Legal Practice Course.  Naturally, Nicola feels that her firm is the best legal practice in the area and she credits her staff as the firm’s main strength.  This feeling is echoed by the whole team: it’s professional, dedicated and ethical, but the main reason: “The people here are great!”

As the founding partner, Nicola obviously has a handle on everything that goes on in the practice.  It’s not difficult for her to multitask in this way – she’s very used to that, being the mother of identical twin boys!  They keep her busy outside of work, but she always finds time for shopping and socialising with her good friends.
