I'm a principal lawyer in the Court of Protection team. I act as a court deputy for brain injured adults and children who lack capacity to manage their property and finances.
Get to know Angela
I began my legal career in 1990 and qualified as a solicitor in 1993 in a London firm. I specialised in personal injury litigation and was head of the personal injury team for 20 years.
Over the past 12 years I've developed experience of and a speciality in acting as a court deputy for brain injured clients, it's felt like a natural progression for me, setting up a court of protection team before moving to further specialise as a partner in a highly regarded court of protection team in another London firm.
Joining the Slater and Gordon team in 2021 has created the perfect opportunity for me to use my blend of skills from a very long history in litigation and as a dedicated court deputy and strong advocate for the brain injured and their families.
As an advocate I work with many professionals in both social care and work with various solicitors but I must say that Angela Nunn, and Kelly and Frankie, are both excellent and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend her, or her team. I love working with her always happy to listen, support and give time when needed for all.

Even though those with a deputyship or power of attorney have responsibility for managing a donor’s affairs, they are still ultimately answerable to the Court of Protection for any decisions they make.
The Family Court puts the needs and safety of children first at all times, sometimes using child arrangement orders to do so. Our child arrangement order lawyers are here to help if you need to apply for a court order.
Infant Settlement Trusts can be accessed by a parent/guardian or solicitor and allow access to the compensation which can be used for treatment, maintenance and education of the child without additional approval from the court. The Trust can also continue after the age of 18 and this can be extremely useful if claiming any means tested benefits.
If you have received compensation following a personal injury (PI) claim, then a PI compensation trust may be the best way to protect it. Your compensation can be separated from what's in your bank account so that it doesn't affect your eligibility for means-tested benefits.
