A solicitor at Kendal-based law firm Napthens has qualified with the Society of Trust and Estates Practitioners.
Georgina Smith has gained what is considered the top professional qualification for a wills, trusts and probate solicitor with the society – a worldwide professional body that promotes high professional standards and education for its members.
Jamie Allison, head of Cumbria at Napthens, said: “Georgina is a key member of our team here in Cumbria and we are delighted to see her become a full member of STEP.
“She has worked hard to achieve this qualification which confirms her expertise, and level of professionalism and care for her clients in this important, and often sensitive, line of work.”
