Biography
I am Solicitor in the Court of Protection Department at Irwin Mitchell based in our Manchester Office. I joined the team in August 2021.
I act on behalf of clients who have been assessed as lacking the mental capacity to manage their own property and financial affairs and have a Deputy appointed by the Court of Protection. I am regularly involved in making applications to Court for the appointment of a professional or lay deputy, and subsequently in assisting with the delivery of Irwin Mitchell’s professional deputyship services. As part of my role, I work closely with our litigation teams to support clients both pre and post settlement and a key part of my role involves building relationships with my clients, their families and those involved in their care to ensure their needs are met and their affairs managed in their best interests.
I also have experience with statutory will applications and in preparing and executing Personal Injury Trusts.
What Inspired You To Get Into Law?
I enjoy working with people and became a lawyer because I wanted a career that allowed me help others and make a real difference.
What Is The Most Rewarding Aspect Of Your Role?
Working with clients who have often sustained life changing injuries and supporting them on their journey as they overcome challenges and navigate through highs and lows is incredibly rewarding. I feel honoured to work with such inspiring clients.
What Do You Like About Working At Irwin Mitchell?
I feel privileged to work at Irwin Mitchell and within such an experienced team who have a wealth of knowledge and passion for doing the very best for our clients.
What Do You Do Away From The Office?
Outside of work I love spending time with my family and friends and I enjoy traveling and visiting new places and going to the theatre to watch shows and musicals.
