Stop Blaming the Solicitor with Kirsty Baxter

Solicitors get blamed for everything. The delays, the silence, the deal that collapses two days before exchange. The truth is usually far less dramatic and far more fixable.In this episode of Girls in Property I'm joined by Kirsty Baxter, a conveyancing solicitor with fifteen years of experience and a mum of four who is very open about the fact that none of it looks perfect from the inside.We get into the practical side first. How to choose the right solicitor, what you actually need in place before you instruct, and why communication is the thing that quietly makes or breaks a transaction. Kirsty explains why conveyancing only ever feels simple when everyone in the chain responds quickly and says what they mean.Then we go somewhere else. Kirsty shares how she got into law through A level law, work experience and the old ILEX route rather than a traditional path, and what it has taken to build a career while raising four children. She is refreshingly open about the juggle, the guilt and the identity shifts that come with it.If the legal side of property has ever felt intimidating, or you're quietly wondering whether you can build something serious while your life is already full, this episode is for you.How to Get Involved With The Girls in Property  👇 👩 Join our GIP Community 📞 Not sure it's for you?
