I am a Private Client Solicitor specialising in dealing with complex probate cases, often involving high value estates, foreign assets, businesses and complex intestacies. I advise clients on a range of tax implications arising from estate administration, in particular Inheritance Tax, Capital Gains Tax and Income Tax. I also assist clients with preparation of wills, LPAs and Deputyship applications. I have dealt with many unusual Court applications and scenarios and I pride myself on my friendly professionalism, efficiency and time management. I work hard to form close relationships with clients, keeping them regularly informed and updated in a way that means they always have a clear understanding of what is happening on their case. I completed my Law Degree at the University of the West of England, Bristol, graduating with a 2:1. I then began working at Co-op Legal Services while studying for my Legal Practice Course and commenced my training contract there in 2011. I qualified as a solicitor in 2013.

A small matter dealt with exceptionally well
I had a very minor probate enquiry - it might have been minor but the staff treated it with urgency and professionalism. I will be using them for all of my future personal legal requirements.

Probate
After several years of trying to resolve the estate/ probate in respect of my late husband I was recommended to Kate Rutherford of Cross Border Law Ltd.
From our first discussions I was immediately reassured by Kate's professional & compassionate attitude. Nothing was too much trouble & she was always able to talk & explain things in lay terms keeping me fully informed at all times even when it was to say there was still no news. Thanks to Kate all is now resolved.
