Consultant Solicitor specialising in Contentious Probate Disputes
- I work part-time for a few local firms as a specialist contentious probate consultant solicitor. I love my work and believe a dual role between legal work and mediation work allows for me to best help clients. The two roles are different, but both central to the Venn Diagram of resolution of a dispute.
