Since joining Lancashire Law in 2018, Kelly Edge has become an essential part of our Todmorden team. With extensive experience in residential conveyancing, Kelly is known not only for her technical knowledge but also for her warmth, approachability, and unwavering dedication to client care. Affectionately referred to as “the smiling secretary,” she provides vital support to both clients and colleagues, helping transactions progress smoothly from start to finish.
What is your role at Lancashire Law?
My role in the firm is as a Secretary/Legal assistant. I liaise with clients and ensure all administrative tasks are handled with precision and efficiency.
What is your favourite part of the job?
My favourite part of the job is helping clients understand the process and making it as simplistic as possible. Whether its explaining legal jargon terms or guiding them step by step, I enjoy making the experience clear, manageable and less overwhelming.
What is a fun fact about you that nobody would guess?
I am quite flexible and can do the splits!
What is your favourite thing to do outside of work?
I LOVE live music of all types, so will go to as many festivals and gigs as possible. I am also a massive Disney fan and will gladly watch Disney films on repeat all day long given half the chance. But above all, I love spending time with my family and friends, and my main man – Ralph the cocker spaniel.
I am very proud that our firm has opted to support Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary this festive season, as there isn’t anyone who loves animals as much as me! We are accepting donations for toys, beds, food and more at both our Todmorden and Milnrow offices ahead of the festivities this year. I will enjoy dropping off the generous donations, but I can’t promise I won’t be coming home with five new pets!
What is your best advice for someone going through the conveyancing procedure?
I recommend that you instruct a solicitor as soon as possible so that you are a step ahead of the game especially if selling to ensure you have time to complete the protocol forms without feeling pressured/overwhelmed or rushed into completing these.
I also advise clients to keep communication open and prompt. Responding quickly to requests for information or documents can significantly speed up the process. Finally, try not to worry if things feel slow at times—conveyancing involves many moving parts and third parties, so patience really is key. Trust that we’re working behind the scenes to keep everything on track.
What do our clients say about Kelly?
“I’ve really appreciated how responsive Lancashire Law are – great having locally based conveyancers who will always give you an answer. The buying and selling process was tricky (isn’t it always) so it was great to have this level of customer service where you will always get a useful and helpful response. Special mention goes to Kelly Edge always unfailing cheerful and helpful!” – Ms U, March 2025
