Biography
Having obtained a Durham University Law Degree in 2008, Carly qualified as a Solicitor in 2012 and has specialised in residential property ever since. Carly has built a strong reputation in this field over the 13 years since qualification and has acted for residential property clients in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, Cheshire and beyond.
Covering the wide range of residential property matters, Carly’s caseload has particular emphasis on assisting high-net-worth individual and investor clients to refinance, restructure and add to their existing property portfolios, whether that be for tax or other commercial reasons. Carly works closely with Myerson’s Corporate Team, particularly in relation to private loans and legal charge arrangements and property incorporations.
Carly has established herself as a trusted and pragmatic advisor with considerable experience in complex transactions and title issues which can often cause a chain of transactions to collapse without a representative in that chain to unravel and solve the problem. The team has strong links with local estate agents, and Carly has a reputation for getting the job done and supporting her clients through their property journey, with many clients returning to instruct her again and again.
Carly supports the Head of Department in managing and training the team and is a member of the firm’s Banking Sector and the firm Employee Engagement Committee, being a voice for colleagues in sharing feedback and thoughts on the future of the firm.
Client Feedback
Melissa
Carly Traverse recently dealt with the sale of my house, and I was very impressed with the service I received. She was very proactive and always quick to respond. Carly was tenacious in dealing with the other parties to make sure that the sale went through as quickly and smoothly as possible and was very good at explaining things to me when I needed clarifications. I would not hesitate to recommend Carly to anyone looking for a conveyancing solicitor.
Joanna Diggines
I used Myerson to buy my first property. Carly, Olivia and Josie were all brilliant throughout the process. From getting the quote to completion, the process was smooth with a high level of communication throughout. Everyone was very friendly and patient, which was really important to me as a first time buyer. I can't recommend them enough and I would use them again in the future.
Mr. Ayre
We had a great experience with Myerson during our auction property purchase. They were professional, responsive, and kept us well-informed throughout the process. Everything was handled efficiently and with great attention to detail, making the experience smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend their services.

While it hasn’t been the smoothest of purchases - are they ever - I have always felt extremely comfortable with the work that you’ve done on my behalf. I know little about conveyancing, but Carly and her team made it obvious that they were the experts I needed.
