Four Future Solicitors Begin Training Contracts at Wansbroughs

Wansbroughs is proud to confirm that four talented individuals have started their training contracts with the firm: Ben Hawkins, Kaitlin Hocquard Bonner, Holly Grant, and Isabella Jolliffe. Each brings unique experience and a shared commitment to delivering exceptional client service.
Holly Grant joined Wansbroughs in August 2025 as a paralegal in our Residential Property team. A graduate of the University of Plymouth (2025), Holly has already demonstrated her dedication to providing clear and practical advice to clients.
Ben Hawkins became part of the firm in July 2025, working as a paralegal in our Commercial Property team. Ben holds a law degree from Cardiff University (2024) and is passionate about supporting businesses with expert guidance.
Kaitlin Hocquard Bonner joined our Private Client team in September 2025. Kaitlin was one of the first in her family to attend university and benefited from the Wiltshire Community Foundation’s grants and bursaries scheme. Her commitment to education continues as she joins the Foundation’s Education Panel, helping to shape opportunities for young people in the region.
Isabella Jolliffe started with Wansbroughs in September 2025 as a paralegal in our Agriculture & Landed Estates team. Isabella graduated from the University of Exeter and brings a good understanding of rural and estate matters to her role.
These new trainees join our existing cohort of future solicitors, reinforcing Wansbroughs’ reputation for nurturing talent and delivering personal service across all practice areas.
Anna Wensley Stock, Co-Managing Partner, commented:
“We are delighted to see Holly, Ben, Kaitlin, and Isabella begin their training contracts and take the next step toward qualification. From day one, our trainees contribute to live client matters under the guidance of experienced solicitors and partners. We look forward to supporting them on this journey and wish them every success in their careers with Wansbroughs.”
