ASTL welcomes JMW Solicitors as new associate member

The Association of Short Term Lenders (ASTL) has announced the addition of law firm JMW Solicitors to its growing list of associate members.

JMW’s real estate finance team is one of the largest dedicated finance teams in the North West, with a team of lawyers that has more than 20 years of industry-specific knowledge and experience.

“At JMW Solicitors, we advise a wide range of clients, including investors, institutional lenders, banks, specialist financiers, peer-to-peer lenders, fin-tech companies, short-term bridging lenders and mezzanine funders,” said Jodi Lund, partner at JMW Solicitors. “We are known for our commercial approach that enables us to meet our clients’ goals and complete transactions swiftly while also effectively managing risk.

“Joining the ASTL gives us a great opportunity to work more closely with short-term mortgage lenders and play our part in helping to grow the reputation and opportunity in the industry.”

The ASTL – the only trade association in the UK dedicated to representing the interests of short-term lenders and their customers – now has approaching 50 associate members and more than 40 lender members.

“I’m really pleased to welcome JMW Solicitors as the latest organisation to become an associate member of the ASTL,” stated Vic Jannels (pictured), chief executive of the Association of Short Term Lenders.

“A successful short-term mortgage market only works effectively when solicitors and lenders work closely together – and this collaboration can help ensure we deliver the best possible experience for customers. This is just one of the reasons why associate members are so important to the ASTL, and our growing membership reflects the increasing number of like-minded businesses.”
