Associate

Alex is an associate in the private client team who specialises in lifetime planning and estate administration. Her clients include elderly and vulnerable individuals, high net worth individuals, families with assets located in multiple jurisdictions and executors administering such assets.

Her practice focuses on advising executors and administrators on probate and estate administration including post-death restructuring. Alex’s work includes drafting wills and trust documentation as part of advising families and individuals as to their succession planning and the preparation of lasting powers of attorney (LPAs).
