Phoebe will be based at Ashtons’ Cambridge office on Newmarket Road but will work alongside the firm’s well established personal injury teams in Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and Thetford.
Phoebe qualified as a solicitor in 2013 after training with a regional firm and then worked as a Solicitor for a National disease team in Cambridge before joining Ashtons.
As part of the growing team, Phoebe will be focusing on working with the Anglia Asbestos Support Group, a relatively new group which Ashtons have helped to set up with charity Mesothelioma UK. The group meets in Norwich and Bury St Edmunds on a monthly basis and is open to those affected by asbestos, their carers and health care professionals who work with those affected by mesothelioma, asbestosis, pleural thickening and asbestos related lung cancer.
Richard Foyster, Partner, and Head of Personal Injury at Ashtons said: “We are delighted to welcome Phoebe to the team and are pleased to be attracting so much specialist talent to the firm. Her recruitment is an important part of our strategy to continue to grow our asbestos services across East Anglia and Phoebe and the team look forward to welcoming new members to the Anglia Asbestos Support Group.”
Phoebe Osborne said: “I am very excited to join Ashtons Legal and am looking forward to working with Richard and his team to support clients, family members, carers and other members of the support groups.”
