Firm strengthens UK probate capabilities with partner appointment

International law firm Withers has boosted the ranks of its London probate team with the arrival of new partner Carrie Duncan. Carrie joins the firm from Anthony Gold, where she headed the Private Client, Probate & Trusts team.

Carrie advises clients on the broad range of issues surrounding effective succession planning and protecting their family's futures. She acts for clients from a variety of backgrounds, including elderly individuals, academics, business owners, landowners and high net worth individuals, dealing with their interests in the UK and globally.

Dora Clarke, co-head of Withers' Private Client & Tax division in London, comments: 'Helping clients to successfully navigate the complexities of the probate process is key to what we do around the world, and lawyers with Carrie's skills and depth of experience are few and far between. She is equally adept at managing domestic cases as she is with the challenges of probate matters involving multiple jurisdictions. We really look forward to welcoming Carrie to the team.'

Carrie adds: 'Withers has long been a leading firm in trust and probate work and joining the firm's international private client group is an exciting move for me. Working with skilled colleagues around the world, I will be delivering the best possible advice to our clients.'
