Career:
Elizabeth specialises in Wills and Probate. Having helped an array of clients throughout her career, she knows how to deal with all kinds of situations and understands that a ‘one size fits all’ approach is never appropriate.Elizabeth has a keen interest in the elderly and especially enjoys helping her clients to sort out their Wills and Lasting Powers of Attorney.

Elizabeth is not afraid to approach sensitive topics, such as Dementia, with her clients. She explains, “It is important to address issues that individuals are sometimes reluctant to talk about, because who knows what the future holds? If I can help someone prepare for the unexpected or give aid and support to families already dealing with a family member with dementia, then I feel I have made a difference. I find this very rewarding and hopefully my client has benefitted too.”

Elizabeth is able to offer a great deal of empathy to her clients. Being able to help people is what drives her. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Elizabeth and she will go above and beyond to support her client.
