As an Equity Partner and Solicitor, I co‑head the Wills, Trusts & Probate Department alongside Claire Curtis and help clients plan for the future with confidence.

I qualified as a Solicitor in 2007 and am a full member of both The Association of Lifetime Lawyers (previously Solicitors for the Elderly) and The Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners.

My practice areas include:

• All aspects of Wills, Trusts & Probate planning
• Lifetime and tax planning, including Inheritance Tax mitigation
• Setting up Charities and Trusts
• Estate administration, including complex and international Estates

I particularly enjoy tax planning and advising on Inheritance Tax mitigation, taking a holistic approach to ensure clients’ plans work in practice as well as on paper.

Examples of my work:

• Managing an Estate with worldwide assets exceeding £15 million.
• Establishing Trusts to protect Business Property Relief and Agricultural Property Relief.
• Supporting a local Charity to ensure a public playing field continued to benefit the community.
• Advising farmers and business owners on planning and tax efficient structures.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my young daughter, reading and attending the theatre.
