Nosheen Bukhari—Chadwick Lawrence

Appointment of dementia champion boosts firm’s expertise

Chadwick Lawrence have announced the recent appointment of private client solicitor and elderly client specialist Nosheen Bukhari. The appointment of Nosheen signals the continued growth of the firm and is a testament to the increasing portfolio of clients working with the firm's family law department.

Nosheen, who specialises in working with elderly clients, brings with her a wealth of legal experience having worked for a number of firms across Yorkshire and the north west. As a private client solicitor, she specialises in securing lasting powers of attorney for her clients in order to provide them with protection should they lose mental or physical capacity. This is a major concern for a number of elderly clients and Nosheen’s expertise will further bolster Chadwick Lawrence’s service offering.

As well as being fluent in Urdu and Punjabi, Nosheen is also a dementia champion meaning that she has a strong understanding of what it is like for an individual living with dementia.

Sarah Crowther, partner at Chadwick Lawrence, comments: “We firmly believe Nosheen will add to the wealth of experience and legal expertise within the wills and probate department. As a firm, we understand the importance of appointing someone our clients trust to advise and support them in making decisions in respect of their personal welfare and Nosheen’s expertise puts us in a stronger position to offer sound advice and act on behalf of our clients with regards to dementia”
