Victoria Crick
Community Care Chartered Legal Executive
I have a wealth of experience advising Professional and Lay Deputies, having been a Private Client Legal Executive for over 11 years. I understand the difficulties my clients face and assist them through what is often, a difficult and stressful time.

I am a member of the Community Care Law team at our offices in Brighton. I joined the team, having worked in a Professional Deputy and a Private Client team. This means I am able to utilise my Private Client knowledge to provide holistic advice which covers many areas of Community Care law, such as gifting advice and disputes between Attorneys.

Other experience
