Timms Solicitors have promoted Charlotte Day to head the growing Wills and Probate department across their offices in Derby, Burton, Ashby and Swadlincote.
Having graduated with a Law degree from the University of Chester and completing her Legal Practice Course with a London firm, Charlotte qualified as a Solicitor in 2016 and joined Timms in August 2018. She completed the firm’s bespoke Pathways programme and was promoted to Associate in 2022.
Timms managing partner Fiona Moffat said: “Charlotte has proven to be a natural leader as well as an excellent lawyer and we are delighted that she has taken on the role as Head of Wills and Probate.
“This is a growing team and I know that, under Charlotte’s leadership, this important aspect of our work will flourish even further.”
Charlotte, who is a fully qualified STEP member and an accredited member of The Association of Lifetime Lawyers, concluded: “Wills and Probate is a diverse and sometimes complicated area of law and I am proud to head such an excellent and empathetic team.
“I originally joined Timms because of their commitment to professional and personal development. Having seen the benefits of the Pathways to Associate programme, I too am keen to nurture young talent to ensure that our clients continue to receive not only sound legal advice but the support they need at what can be particularly challenging times in their lives.”
