Peta joined Stephens Scown in July 2024, working as an associate in the Private Client team specialising in tax, trust and estate planning.

She trained in London, largely advising high-net worth non-UK domiciled individuals and was awarded private client Top 35 Under 35. Peta has an LLM in International Law and is also a qualified criminal solicitor and has advised and represented clients in the Magistrates Courts in relation to a wide range of offences and is well placed to understand the pressures that the court system can bring. She has a rural and farming background and so has a particular interest in this area.

Peta has extensive experience and advises on:

• Wills
• Trusts
• Tax & succession planning
• Powers of attorney
• Complex estates

Outside of work, when not spending time with her three children, Peta enjoys riding and the great outdoors.
