We are wishing a very happy, healthy, and long retirement to two of our colleagues who joined Maxwells in the late 1980s!

Mike Pratt, Senior Family Lawyer, started with us in 1988 and Carol Knowles, Legal Assistant, joined in 1989. Carol worked alongside Mike as a Family Assistant for many years, before moving over to assist our Lifetime Planning Team.

Both Mike and Carol have assisted several clients and colleagues throughout their time at the company, including providing support to clients going through difficult periods, such as divorce or bereavement. They have also both showed mentorship and friendship to colleagues past and present, helping them in their careers.

Mike and Carol have had long and distinguished careers and although everyone at Maxwell Hodge will miss them, we are equally excited for them as they enter this next chapter of life and enjoy a well-deserved rest!
