Private client lawyer joins firm in Chester

Katie Brassington has joined national consultancy law firm Excello Law based in Chester. Qualifying in 2004, Katie has over 18 years’ experience advising individuals, families, trustees and business owners across Cheshire and North Wales.  She joined Excello from Knights where she headed up their private client team in Chester.

Katie is a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) and Solicitors for the Elderly (SFE) and specialises in wills, estate and succession planning, trusts, Lasting Powers of Attorney, estate administration, including complex claims for agricultural property relief and business property relief, and Court of Protection matters.

On joining Excello, Katie commented: 'I work to build good relationships with clients allowing us to work together to plan pragmatically based on their individual circumstances.  Working in a more flexible and collaborative working environment within Excello Law, I look forward to building on those relationships with existing and new clients.'

Joanne Losty, chief operating officer, said: 'Katie is an experienced private client lawyer and joins a senior team in Chester offering the full range of commercial and private client legal services.

'With offices in Chester, Liverpool and Manchester, and further expansion planned in the region in Preston, we’re continuing to enjoy great interest from lawyers looking to work in a more liberating environment and collaborative culture and would be pleased to hear from senior professionals across the north west.'
