Edwin Coe is delighted to announce that Alison Broadberry has today joined Edwin Coe as Partner and Head of Private Client.

Having initially qualified as a barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, Alison went into the financial services industry and rose to become an Associate Director of Schroders.  She then moved on to St. James’s Place Wealth Management Plc where she was Divisional Director, Head of Tax and Trusts.

Subsequently, she moved across to private practice and re-qualified as a solicitor rising rapidly to become Head of Private Client at Speechly Bircham before they merged with Charles Russell in November 2014.

Along with Alison, Michael Reynolds (Trust and Probate Manager) and Joanne Hills (Personal Assistant and Administrator) are also joining the firm.

Alison takes over as Head of Private Client from Nick Giles, who will have more time to look after clients whilst also continuing his role as the firm’s Managing Partner.
