About
As the leader of the UK Private Client team, Sally brings over three decades of experience, helping clients to protect and pass on their personal wealth or business interests through inheritance tax mitigation and succession planning. She also advises clients in relation to their broader philanthropic and charitable aims.
Sally takes pride in the long-standing relationships she has built, in some cases extending across three generations of a client's family. This depth of connection allows her to provide tailored advice that resonates with the personal and financial nuances of each family's story.
Her experience also encompasses Court of Protection matters, where she navigates issues relating to mental incapacity including statutory will and gift applications. Sally regularly acts as an attorney or professional deputy, offering guidance and support when it is most needed, and often in complex cases.
Beyond acting for individuals and business owners, Sally also advises charities and not-for-profit organisations in relation to legacy administration and the development of legacy campaign literature, ensuring their valuable work continues well into the future.
Sally is honoured to be recommended in the Legal 500 and Chambers legal directories and ranked in the Citywealth Leaders List and the Hall of Fame for Legal 500 Court of Protection. She is a director of the Firm's independent Trust Corporation and a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP).
Sally is passionate about her work and building lasting relationships with our clients. She takes the time to find out what our clients are worrying about, and then, together with their other advisors, works to find practical and appropriate solutions. If you're seeking a trusted adviser to help you navigate the complexities of private client law, Sally is here to offer her expertise and support.
Sally is admitted to practise in England and Wales.
