About

My practice is dedicated to providing strategic advice to some of our Firm's most prominent and historic landed families and their trustees.

I combine my understanding of traditional private client work, including tax, trusts, estate planning, and capacity issues, with specialised knowledge in agricultural law and heritage exemption. This allows me to deliver comprehensive guidance that is not only tailored to the different needs of families managing significant properties and estates but also anticipates their evolving requirements over time.

With a forward-thinking approach, I ensure that my clients are prepared for the future, adapting strategies to meet their ever-changing needs and to preserve their legacy for generations to come.

As a qualified Trusts and Estates Practitioner (TEP), I am committed to upholding the highest standards in estate planning and trust management to meet my clients' ever-changing needs now and in the future.

I am admitted to practise in England and Wales, and I welcome the opportunity to assist you with your legal needs.
