With over 40 years of experience as a qualified solicitor, I bring senior-level expertise to every case. My career has encompassed:

• Training with a leading City of London law firm

• Partnership specialising in litigation at a respected Surbiton practice

• Years as a sole practitioner handling diverse family and business matters

• Specialist work with rural healthcare professionals on NHS pharmaceutical dispensing rights, including judicial review cases

• Recognition as an early recipient of the Law Society's 'Lexcel' quality mark for excellence in practice management

After taking time away during my late wife's illness, I have returned to practice to provide the expert legal guidance that many can no longer afford from traditional high-street firms.

Comprehensive Legal Guidance Across Multiple Areas

As a general legal practitioner, I offer a broad range of advisory services covering family and business law. Like a GP in medicine, I can identify when specialist counsel is needed and will engage barristers on your behalf when appropriate.

My Approach:

I practice as a freelance solicitor, a modern category of legal professional with all the regulatory obligations of traditional solicitors but with a focus on advisory and support services. This structure allows me to keep costs significantly lower while maintaining the highest professional standards.

What This Means for You:

I provide expert advice and practical support across areas including:

• Family law matters

• Inheritance and estate planning

• Business agreements and disputes

• Wills and succession planning

• Court document preparation and guidance

• Probate advice

Complaints Procedure
I am committed to addressing any concerns promptly. Please direct any issues to me initially, and I will respond within ten working days (or as soon as possible if I am away).

Legal Ombudsman
Website: www.legalombudsman.org.uk

You must contact the Legal Ombudsman within 6 months of deciding that your complaint has not been properly addressed.

Professional Indemnity Insurance
As I restrict my services to non-reserved activities, I do not currently carry professional indemnity insurance. Throughout my four decades of practice, I have never had a negligence claim. I maintain sufficient personal resources to meet any potential claim that might arise.
