Kate Arnold
Partner
I provide bespoke succession and tax planning advice suited to clients’ individual needs.
Combining a sunny disposition with a high level of technical knowledge and ability, I take time to understand my clients’ circumstances and needs so that I can apply both legal and practical skills to provide the correct solution.
I enjoy coming to work for the daily interaction with clients and colleagues alike and the challenges which arise from advising on each client’s unique situation (and to get a rest from my two young children!).
