Private client specialist Katie Gosling joins Sintons
The Wills, Trusts and Estates Team at Sintons is continuing to expand with the appointment of a highly experienced new specialist.
Katie Gosling joins the team as a senior associate with over a decade of experience of supporting private clients with the preparation of wills and trusts, alongside complex estate and tax planning matters.
She has particular expertise in inheritance tax planning both during a client’s lifetime and after their death.
Katie has routinely worked with high net worth clients in advising on the protection of their wealth and assets for future generations and has acted in numerous cross-border matters.
Katie – a Cambridge graduate with a first in both her undergraduate and Masters law degrees – has practiced solely in private client work since her qualification in 2012 and joins Sintons from a leading international law firm.
Katie – named as a rising star by Legal 500 – is a fully qualified Trust and Estate Practitioner, having completed the STEP Diploma, which is recognised worldwide as a mark of excellence in private client work. She received one of only two distinctions awarded across the country for her wills and administration of estates assessment.
Her appointment to Sintons’ Wills, Trusts and Estates Team comes at a time of ongoing growth for the department which continues to attract new instructions from across the UK on the strength of its reputation for its legal excellence and outstanding levels of client service.
“I am very pleased to join Sintons, a firm whose private client expertise is well known and highly regarded, and who shares my own commitment to giving the best possible service to each and every client we work with,” says Katie.
“I believe in getting to know clients and understanding their priorities, then tailoring advice and providing the practical solutions so they can achieve their goals. Supporting clients in planning for their future and that of their family is a great responsibility, and one I am privileged to undertake for my clients.
“I look forward to working with my colleagues at Sintons to continue to develop the team, while maintaining our absolute commitment to our clients and supporting them in every way possible.”
Paul Nickalls, head of the Wills, Trusts and Estates Team at Sintons – and regularly hailed by both the Legal 500 and Chambers as one of the leading lawyers in the North of England – said: “We are delighted to add Katie to our team and welcome her to Sintons.
“Increasingly we are being instructed in new matters on a national basis, and by adding new capability to the team, we can continue to support all our clients. This is a time of strong growth and development for the team and an exciting time for Katie to join us.
“She has gained significant experience of handling the whole spectrum of private client work – including highly complex planning matters – which strengthens even further our award-winning team. Katie also shares our deep commitment to our clients, which is at the heart of everything we do here.”
