Sue Carlile is a solicitor and leads the Lifetime Planning and Estates team. She is a member of the Law Society’s Probate Section and a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners. She is from the Wirral and went to Liverpool University. 

Sue enjoys spending time with her family and friends. She is a reluctant gym attendee preferring to get her exercise on the golf course, albeit not as often as she would like. She is working on the reduction of her handicap from 34, but consoles herself nowadays with the fact that she sometimes can play to the handicap rather than to the water or rough. She also enjoys her gardening.

Michelle is intending to study towards the Society of Trust Estate and Practitioners qualification later this year.

In her spare time, Michelle enjoys a good family get together and playing with her 3-year-old Niece. She will spend many a morning listening to dance tracks on the way into work. As for the weekend, Michelle likes to go shopping and on a Sunday morning attends a Step Aerobics class, followed by a short swim.
