Catrina is currently a trainee solicitor having recently completed her LPC and Masters Degree in Law at Northumbria University, where she was awarded a Distinction. She began her legal career at Clark Willis Law Firm LLP in 2015 where she assisted in an array of departments including crime, mental health and residential conveyancing. It was in 2016, at Cartwright King Solicitors, where she found her love for the Court of Protection. Her day-to-day role involves the preparation of court documents such as issue documentation, witness statements and court orders. She analyses both care home records and medical records, liaises with clients, drafts statements and attends court hearings.
Catrina’s varied role has meant she has developed specialised skills for helping people who lack the capacity to make health and welfare decisions for themselves.
Catrina started her training contract in September 2022, and she now continues this at BHP Law.
