Biography

Catherine is a solicitor with 15 years’ experience in dealing with administration of estates, wills, lasting powers of attorney, inheritance tax and deputyship matters.

After qualifying as a solicitor in January 2011, Catherine joined Kirbys in August 2018. Catherine understands that many of her clients are vulnerable or have just lost someone close to them; her kind and caring nature helps clients in difficult situations.

In her spare time, Catherine enjoys reading, travel, cooking, running, and going for long walks in the countryside.

I cannot recommend Alison at Kirbys more highly. Three things stood out for me; her intellect and negotiation skills, her rigorous management of a complex process, and her outstanding care for her client. Through a stressful and emotionally charged process Alison was the voice of calm pragmatism. Her wise counsel, listening skills and kindness set her apart and she walked alongside me, a sure and thoughtful presence, through a most difficult time. I’m fortunate enough to work with outstanding professional advisers in my day job. Alison has all the qualities of the very best, combined with a humility and kindness that may not always be fashionable, but is always appreciated. Through our work together I came to regard Alison as a wise friend; perhaps the highest compliment one can offer to an outstanding adviser.
