How can I help you?

I am a Court of Protection Executive in the Court of Protection Team. I support many clients who lack capacity to manage their own affairs typically as a result of an acquired brain injury. I work alongside case managers, care teams and financial advisors to ensure I make a positive difference to my clients and their families.

A little about me.

I am particularly passionate about supporting vulnerable individuals to live as independently as and where possible.

In my spare time, I am a mother to 2 daughters and enjoy travelling to new destinations with them to experience new places and cultures.

My experience.

I have worked in a Court of Protection role since 2019 and started my COP career at Jackson Lees.

Prior to working in Court of Protection, I worked for a large firm as a senior paralegal dealing with large loss and Defendant litigation. Whilst I have no legal qualification, I am hopeful to study CILEX at some point in the future.
