WHN strengthens wills, trusts and probate team

Woodcocks Haworth & Nuttall Solicitors has appointed associate solicitor Jennifer Moorhouse to its wills, trusts and probate team.

Jennifer holds ten years of industry experience and is a full member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), a global professional body that recognises experts with proven qualifications and professional experience in trusts, estates, wills and tax.

She works closely with clients to help resolve complex trust and estate matters, while her specialism in inheritance and succession planning sees her drafting wills to ensure client assets are passed on in accordance with their wishes. She is also experienced in dealing with Court of Protection matters and the preparation and registration of Lasting Powers of Attorney.

Jennifer will be based in the company's Blackburn office, which is one of eight it operates in the Lancashire and Greater Manchester area.

Michael Shroot, CEO of WHN Solicitors, said: “Jennifer is a well-regarded locally trained solicitor specialising in a very complex and personal area of law.

"Coupled with her Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners qualification, she embodies all the attributes we look for in our team members, so I’m confident she’ll deliver a first-class service to WHN’s clients while helping with all their inheritance and succession planning needs."
