About Me
Why Local Families Choose Lakes Legacies

Choosing someone to write your Will is a deeply personal decision. You need advice you can trust, delivered by someone who will take the time to understand you, your circumstances, and what matters most.

​

A little about me…

​

I live near Arnside and work with clients across Kendal, Milnthorpe, Grange-over-Sands, Carnforth, Windermere, and throughout the Lake District and Cumbria. For over 16 years, I worked with a respected firm of solicitors and estate agents in Kendal, where I developed a strong understanding of the legal profession, client care, and the importance of clear, well-prepared documentation. This experience inspired me to train as a Will writer and become a member of the Institute of Professional Willwriters (IPW).

​

I founded Lakes Legacies to offer a personal Will writing service - one that puts clients at ease, avoids jargon, and makes the process as simple and stress-free as possible. My goal is to ensure your wishes are clearly documented, legally sound, and easy for your family to follow when the time comes.
