Solicitors for the Elderly (SFE) has appointed former board director, Karon Walton, as its first ever Chief Legal Officer, and has welcomed existing SFE members Michael Culver, Carol McBride, Ruth Pyatt and Jenny Pierce to its board of directors, bringing the total number of directors to nine. All new directors are fully accredited members, having completed SFE’s Older Client Law in Practice award within the last three years.
The new appointments are in response to the growing need for specialist skills when dealing with older, more vulnerable consumers in the field of Private Client law.
