I am the Court of Protection manager and have over 30 years’ experience of working in the fields of Court of Protection and care for the elderly. I deal with all Court of Protection matters, specialising in deputyship applications. I can also advise on all aspects of lasting powers of attorney and the registration of enduring powers of attorney.

Over the years I have built up good working relationships with local care homes and work closely with social services.

My ability to deal with a varying degree of complexity with deputyship applications places great importance and other professionals regularly approach me for advice and assistance.

I have a reputation for being patient, kind and understanding when dealing with vulnerable and elderly clients.
