Wrigleys Solicitor in 2016 list of Top 35 Under 35

Congratulations to Charlotte Dyson for her place on the definitive annual list of young private client practitioners across the UK.

The Top 35 Under 35 list is published by eprivateclient to identify, recognise, introduce and promote the rising stars of the private client professions across the UK (including lawyers, accountants, trustees or any other professional intermediary).

Charlotte's special focus of work is on meeting the needs of individuals who are vulnerable, injured, sick or disabled in managing their finances, property and care. Charlotte deals sensitively and pragmatically with ‎such clients and provides effective solutions for managing and protecting their awards.

Lynne Bradey, Head of Probate, Trusts and Estate Planning in Wrigleys' Sheffield office comments on the qualities that helped Charlotte achieve her place on the exclusive list: "From being very newly qualified, Charlotte demonstrated the skills for frontline client work and has flourished. The bulk of her time is spent on the road visiting clients who are too ill or injured to travel.   As well as having the empathy, client skills and discretion for this type of work, Charlotte has strong technical skills that are relied upon by lay clients and hardened litigators alike. She often gives  second opinions to clients concerned about advice received from non-experts and has prevented significant unnecessary tax charges for many people receiving multi-million pound settlements."

Alongside her client work, Charlotte is also a professional lead to the local Rotherham Dementia Action Alliance Group and contributed to a free booklet for those living with dementia and their families. Charlotte is now in the process of establishing a new DAA group for the whole of Yorkshire and Humber. Charlotte has trained as a Dementia Champion (part of the Alzheimer Association's national campaign) and delivered countless awareness sessions to Wrigleys' staff resulting in over 100 colleagues becoming 'Dementia Friends'.
