Rachel Beard
Professional Support Lawyer driving legal excellence in real estate
I’m a Professional Support Lawyer in Shoosmiths’ Real Estate team, helping our lawyers stay ahead of legal developments and maintain best-in-class know-how. I lead on precedent updates, training and technical support across the division.
I joined Shoosmiths as a trainee in 2011 and qualified into the Real Estate team in 2013. I became a Senior Associate in 2016 and moved into my current role in 2021. My transactional experience includes advising investors, landlords, tenants and portfolio managers.
I’m a member of the Property Support Lawyers Group and contribute to Shoosmiths’ knowledge strategy. I also support our Balance network and internal training programmes.
