A solicitors firm has announced the appointment of two new directors.
Charlotte Fitzpatrick and Nicola Mawson have joined the board of directors at Waddington & Son, who have offices in Blackburn, Burnley, and Preston.
Qualifying as a solicitor in 2009, Nicola joined the company in November 2021 and has extensive experience in several areas of law, but specialises in Court of Protection Deputyship matters.
She acts in many high-net-worth matters for clients suffering from physical issues affecting their mental capacity and she is also a member of the Professional Deputies Form.
Charlotte joined the company in July 2021 after qualifying in 2011 and working at her previous firm for more than seven years.
In June 2022, she became head of the family department and specialises in proceedings brought by the Local Authority, representing parents, grandparents and children.
She is also a member of the Law Society Children’s Panel and is an accredited member of Resolution.
Colin Warner, director at Waddington & Son, said: "I am delighted to welcome Charlotte and Nicola to the board of directors.
"They have both made a substantial contribution to making Waddington and Son the firm it is today and I look forward to working closely with both of them as the firm continues to grow from strength to strength.”
