Hodge Jones & Allen has appointed Sarah Charnley as Partner in the Mental Capacity & Deputyship team.
Sarah brings a breadth of experience to Hodge Jones & Allen with over ten years working in Deputyship with adults and children. Sarah is a STEP Solicitor, recognising the role estate planning and wealth management play in Court of Protection work. She will continue to build on Hodge Jones & Allen's meaningful work across all aspects of Court of Protection casework. She is an expert in working with clients who’ve acquired brain injury, which she will continue to pursue at Hodge Jones & Allen.
Sarah is joining Hodge Jones & Allen after almost a decade of working at Fletchers Solicitors, where she worked as Head of Court of Protection and helped grow the department from three Deputyship & trusteeship clients to over 60, managing the settlement of over £70m worth of funds in that time.
Following her appointment as a partner at Hodge Jones & Allen, Sarah said: “I am thrilled to begin my work at Hodge Jones & Allen and look forward to continuing my support for those who’ve sustained brain injuries to ensure they can seek justice and assistance with their future needs. I work to get the best for my clients, and I believe this new chapter in my career will open new challenges that will allow me to continue to grow my skill set and feel a deep sense of purpose in my role.”

She will bring a wealth of experience and knowledge, allowing our advice to evolve in new directions.
