The Human Side of the Law
With 20+ years of legal experience, Kate brings a unique blend of high-level strategic thinking and profound personal empathy to her role as a Consultant Solicitor. Having navigated the complexities of the legal and healthcare systems first-hand through a family member’s sudden neurological diagnosis, she understands that legal “paperwork” is never just paperwork—it is the foundation of peace of mind.
Specialist Areas
Kate specialises in protecting the interests of individuals and families when life feels its most “brittle.” Her practise focuses on:
- Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPA): Ensuring that your voice is heard, even if you are unable to speak for yourself.
- Court of Protection Deputyship: Guiding families through the process of securing legal authority when a loved one has lost capacity.
- Wills & Succession Planning: Providing clear, structured advice for straightforward estates to ensure your wishes are expressed.
- Consultative Support: Offering grounded ‘first steps’ oral advice and a steady hand for general legal enquiries.
A Holistic Approach
As a dedicated Yoga Instructor and Practitioner, Kate incorporates a sense of “Atha” (the power of Now) into her legal practice. She believes that the law should provide a “Sattva” (balance) to the chaos of life. Her clients value her ability to translate dense “legalese” into actionable, compassionate strategies, treating every case with that keen eye of a solicitor and the heart of a caregiver.
“My goal is to turn the ‘stones’ of uncertainty for my clients, providing the legal structure they need to focus on what truly matters: their well-being and that of those they care for.”
