Donna Eland

Donna qualified as a solicitor in 2004 after completing an LLB degree in Law with French Language.  She has spent her entire legal career at Rowlinsons, having started as a Trainee Solicitor, and has been a Director for over 10 years. 

She is an active member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners ( https://www.step.org/ ) demonstrating specialist  knowledge in her field, and won the prestigious national  ‘Student of the Year’ award while gaining her STEP accreditation.

Donna specialises in the preparation of wills and trusts, estate administration, inheritance tax advice and elderly client issues, taking on more complex matters including advising business owners and high net worth clients as well as overseeing the private client team.  She regularly speaks at North Wales Police Pre-Retirement seminars as well local carers’ groups and charities on the importance of will planning and Lasting Powers of Attorney.

She is a mum to two young children, and in her spare time enjoys reading (particularly French novels to try to maintain some fluency!) and is a member of a Shotokan karate club which provides a great workout for both mind and body.

"Donna was thoroughly professional in all her undertakings. Following the loss of my wife she exercised compassion, total understanding and she explained legal jargon in simplistic, helpful terms."
