Simpson Millar expands Court of Protection team

Law firm Simpson Millar continues to fortify its national Court of Protection (CoP) team in response to growing demand. Sadaf Indrees-Raza, an experienced Lawyer with over seven years of expertise in managing Court of Protection deputyship cases, has joined the Manchester office. She specializes in handling financial, health, and personal welfare aspects for clients unable to manage their affairs due to mental incapacity.

Sadaf's focus on clients who have suffered serious injuries aligns with her adept handling of Lasting Powers of Attorney, Personal Injury Trusts, and Trust Administration. Fluent in English, Danish, Urdu, and Punjabi, she ensures effective communication with a diverse client base, offering tailored support.

In London, Solicitor Colm Bourke, with seven years of experience in Court of Protection and mental health law from GN Law, is welcomed to Simpson Millar. Specializing in health and welfare matters and mental health law, Colm is dedicated to assisting vulnerable individuals.

Melanie Varey, Head of CoP at Simpson Millar and Co-Chair of the Executive Committee of the Court of Protection Practitioners Association (CoPPA), expresses confidence in the new additions. She notes the team's reputation for excellence and anticipates Sadaf and Colm to be valuable assets, providing sensitive, empathetic, and forward-thinking legal solutions for vulnerable clients. The expansion reflects Simpson Millar's commitment to delivering comprehensive and exceptional services in the field of Court of Protection.
