Helen Firth – A bit about me blog
I always knew I wanted to be a Solicitor and when I qualified into Private Client Law, I was delighted. I love all aspects of my job especially engaging with elderly clients. I have been known to have a little dance to Jingle Bells at Christmas time in the local care home corridors with some of my clients that I look after. I think for me, whenever I am looking after a client, I always think ‘how would I want my parents to be treated’ and I always make sure my clients receive the best possible service, sometimes at what can be a very difficult time in their lives.
I joined GoodyBurrett in 2017 and when I moved to Wales in August 2019 for my husbands’ job, I remained employed by GoodyBurrett. I love being able to get out into the local community and I am thoroughly enjoying meeting new clients in Wales. The scenery is fantastic and driving out to visit clients is brilliant for the views alone.
I am a fully qualified Solicitor specialising in Will drafting and drafting Lasting Powers of Attorney. I also deal with Mental Capacity and Court of Protection Applications. In the past I have acted for clients in the High Court in relation to Mental Capacity and Best Interests proceedings.
Gone are the days of the Private Client Solicitor being thought of as serious, morbid and mundane. I pride myself on being approachable and welcoming in order to make my clients feel at ease and confident to talk to me about their needs. My aim is to make the process feel simple for my clients so that it eliminates any anxious feelings they may have about the process. At the end of each matter I deal with, whether I am instructed to deal with the creation of Wills, creating Lasting Powers of Attorney, or a Court application in relation to capacity, I want my clients to feel happy and confident that they have received the most professional service possible.
When I am not in work, you will find me at the stables with my horse. I love being outdoors and living in Wales certainly allows for this. There are some amazing places to visit here. One of my first outdoor activities upon arriving in Wales was walking to the top of the Pen y Fan. I say walk, it was more of a crawl!
