About me Expertise

About me

"I specialise in carrying out the last wishes of the deceased by working with the family and personal representatives to obtain the grant of representation required to realise the estate assets and settle estate liabilities before distributing the residue of the estate. ”

I began my legal career as a legal secretary finding myself drawn to probate and estate administration work. I began to concentrate more and more on this type of work and became a full-time fee earner specialising in this area over 15 years ago.

It is rewarding to know that I can help families through a difficult time in their lives, keeping in mind the life changing event that has happened to them whilst maintaining a professional, calm and understanding manner.

Each estate I deal with is different and I enjoy the challenge this provides.
