Some of these areas are sensitive to discuss, so I ensure that I am empathetic in my approach by listening respectfully and carefully to my client’s needs and then imparting advice in a friendly yet professional manner: I thoroughly enjoy meeting and building strong professional relationships with my clients. As a qualified solicitor, I have over 10 years’ experience in this area so my clients can be assured that my advice is accurate and founded upon academic and professional experience.
I qualified as a Solicitor in 2012 after completing my training contract with a firm in Norwich. Following qualification, I specialised in Wills, Trusts and Probate and returned to my roots in the East Midlands. I further developed my expertise within the Wills, Trust and Probate sector by completing the STEP diploma in Estates and Trusts, becoming a full member in 2018.
