Home|People|Emily Cliffe

I am a Solicitor working in the Wills, Trusts and Estates Department across our Gadbrook Park, Northwich and Stoke-on-Trent offices.

I completed my Law degree in 2018 and completed my Legal Practice Course and Masters in Law at BPP University in 2021, which I studied part time whilst working.

I have been in legal practice since 2018, initially gaining experience as a Paralegal at other Staffordshire and Cheshire firms before joining Butcher & Barlow in 2022. In 2023, I commenced my training contract with the firm, further developing my expertise in Private Client work including Wills, Trusts, Probate, Estate Planning, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Court of Protection matters. During my training with Butcher & Barlow, I was fortunate to work in the Residential Property Department where I have gained valuable knowledge of various matters including Freehold and Leasehold sales and purchases, Remortgages, Transfers of Equity and Plot Purchases.

I take a friendly and approachable manner to support my clients through each step of the process. I am committed to providing clear, practical and tailored advice suitable to individual circumstances ensuring that my clients feel informed and confident in the decisions that they make and supported through difficult times.

When I am not working, I often spend my time walking in the Staffordshire and Cheshire countryside with my two dogs; a spaniel and collie cross who are both rescues. I am also currently taking photography lessons – whether this will be a lasting hobby, I don’t know!

    Our first meeting with Emily established a good rapport, she was informative and knowledgeable of the subject matter which made it easier for is to decide how best to move forward with our Wills.
