Charlene’s clients range from private individuals and families, trustees, executors and administrators. Although her expertise is broad, her specialist area is estate administration; having worked at a top 50 city firm, where she dealt with the administration of estates and the dissolution of companies passing to the Duchy of Lancaster and Duchy of Cornwall.
