A lawyer from Dover legal practice Mowll and Mowll has joined national firm Excello Law as it looks to expand across the South East.

Private client lawyer Mark Diomede was a director of the Kent firm.

Mr Diomede, who qualified in 1985, acts as a professional trustee on a number of trusts and also acts as a court-appointed deputy for the management of the finances of individuals who have lost capacity to manage their own affairs.

He said: “I’m thrilled to be part of a forward-thinking and successful firm which, with its significant depth of resource, enables me to concentrate on giving the best possible advice to clients.”

Joanne Losty, director at Excello Law, added: “We are committed to significant expansion across the South East and we’re seeing great interest from lawyers across all disciplines who are looking for greater freedom to build their practice and support their clients.

"Our focus, as always, remains on quality candidates and we welcome applications from senior specialists looking for a more liberating working environment and collaborative culture.”
