More about Emily
We asked Emily: Q: What can clients expect from you? A: I work hard to ensure that my clients have their wishes heard in Court, as often my clients are vulnerable and cannot always advocate for themselves. I support them through cases and times that are difficult and challenging and I do all that I can to ensure that they get the outcome they desire. I want clients to feel supported through the Court process. Q: What do you love about your job? A: The nature of Court of Protection means that no two cases or clients are the same and every matter has something unique about it. I enjoy going out to visit clients and talking to them, ensuring that they are supported through the Court process. Q: What are your interests outside work? Outside of work, I enjoy reading and watching TV/films, as well as going to the gym and going on walks with my family and my dog.
