Victoria Kiver, Taryn Pyle and Hannah Skillicorn, who all work at Simcocks, are celebrating after successfully passing the Manx Bar exams.

Simcocks chief executive Phil Games said: “On behalf of all at Simcocks I would like to congratulate Victoria, Taryn and Hannah on their achievement. It takes determination and hard work and they should all be proud of their success.”

Victoria, a former head girl of Queen Elizabeth High School and Lancaster University graduate said: “Simcocks has been tremendously supportive, providing me with some great training opportunities. I am especially grateful to everyone at the firm for mentoring and encouraging me throughout my study.”

Taryn, who joined the company in 2008 as a Paralegal said: “As part of my training I have gained valuable experience in litigation, with the private client team and in Simcocks’ conveyancing department which has all complimented my study. It was a great boost to get the help and advice of my colleagues.”

Hannah, a former pupil of Ballakermeen High School and Lancaster University graduate gained vocational experience with Simcocks while still at school and continued her association with the firm as a student. She said: “It has been incredibly hard work but I was thrilled to have passed all the exams first time. I am very appreciative of the support from my colleagues who helped me prepare for the exams by giving me feedback on the past papers I did.”
