Private Client Consultant & Will Writer
With over 24 years in financial services and 15 years specialising in Wills and estate planning, I am qualified through both the IPW and The Society of Will Writers. I also hold CeMAP (Distinction) and have completed additional studies in dementia care, helping me support families with empathy as well as technical expertise. Having experienced personal loss myself, I know how important it is to plan with clarity and compassion. My aim is to make the process simple, jargon-free, and reassuring, so clients feel confident at every stage. As a father of five in a blended family, I understand the real-life challenges of family dynamics and the importance of protecting those you love for the future.
Legal & Technical team
WillPack bring over 30 years of experience in Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, and estate planning, and are a founding member of The Society of Will Writers. They provide technical support to professionals across the UK, ensuring that documents meet the highest legal standards. At Fern Wills & LPAs, all documents are prepared and tailored by me personally. WillPack act as my behind-the-scenes legal partner, available if I need an additional technical check, or to provide extra resilience in busy periods. This means my clients always benefit from both personal attention and the assurance of an experienced safety net. I also draw on WillPack’s regular industry insights to keep my advice current and practical. Their partnership strengthens the depth and reliability of the service I provide, while ensuring that every client benefits from up-to-date expertise and proven legal quality.
Specialist Network
Alongside my own expertise, I work closely with a trusted network of professionals who can provide specialist advice when required. This includes independent financial advisers, accountants, care specialists, property professionals, and other advisers whose knowledge complements the estate planning work I carry out. I remain the single point of contact for my clients, coordinating any input from these trusted advisors where it benefits the client. This ensures advice remains joined-up, jargon-free, and tailored to each family’s needs. Clients never have to manage multiple professionals — I handle the process, while drawing on the right expertise at the right time. This collaborative approach means clients receive not only personal, one-to-one support from me, but also the reassurance that additional knowledge is available whenever their circumstances call for it. Working in this way strengthens my service and ensures that every client receives clear, practical, and fully-rounded guidance.
