Reflecting on her journey, Lesley states, "I've dedicated myself to understanding and managing risks, unlocking opportunities for innovative approaches. I continuously strive to improve outcomes for our clients and support my colleagues in their endeavours."

John Durkan, managing director of Switalskis, expresses confidence in Lesley's appointment, citing her unique insights gained from working with law firms as clients. He emphasises her dual expertise as both a former partner and specialist advisor, aligning seamlessly with the firm's vision for the future.
