Emily Hallas
Director of Conveyancing
I’m a licensed conveyancer with 20 years’ experience, specialising in residential property transactions.
As the head of Open Law’s Conveyancing Team and Senior Reporting Officer for the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme, I maintain the highest standards in my work and help ensure the firm is compliant.
I joined Open Law in 2022, drawn by the strong family first ethos (which I share) and commitment to employee wellbeing. I’m passionate about creating a positive, supportive working environment where people feel valued as that gives everybody a better experience. Part of how I implement this is mentoring junior staff and trainees to build the next generation of Open Law.
In January 2025, I proudly became a Director of this unique firm with Lisa and Kara, helping bring the Open Law vision and strategy to life.
I specialise in:
Shared ownership New build developments Leasehold matters Complex Conveyancing matters
My approach is grounded and nurturing, shaped by my own life experience. Growing up less privileged, I learned the value of hard work and resilience early on. My clients, both local & national, describe me as kind, approachable and understanding. They appreciate my clear and honest attitude to explaining matters.
I grew my expertise and knowledge to develop my roles through the years, determined to build a better life and future for my family. Like Lisa, I also juggled work and family around the clock, always putting my son first.
Outside of work, I’m happiest spending time with my husband, son and step-children or digging away in my allotment. My family is and always has been my driving force.
