Hi, I am Tanya, and I am a Legal Advisor in our Lifetime Planning team based at our Swansea office, dealing predominantly with the preparation of Wills and Powers of Attorney. I enjoy assisting clients with the process of "taking stock" and planning ahead for life's uncertainties. I aim to help clients achieve their desired outcome, to put them at ease and make the process as easy and straightforward as possible.
I graduated from Cardiff University in 1995 with a 2:1 honours degree in Law and completed the Legal Practice Course in 1996 before joining JCP Solicitors as a Trainee Solicitor. Upon qualification in 1998, I worked as an Associate Solicitor in the Personal Injury team. I returned to JCP Solicitors following a career break to look after my three children and I have worked in the area of Lifetime Planning since September 2018 as a Legal Advisor.
I undertook training in 2020 to become a Dementia Friend. A Dementia Friend learns more about what it is like to live with dementia and then turns that understanding into action. Dementia, especially Alzheimer’s disease, is a condition especially close to my heart because it has touched my own family.
In my spare time I enjoy reading, family history research and spending time with my family and my West Highland terrier. I am a continuing learner of Welsh and I am always trying to improve my spoken Welsh.
