David is recognised as one of the area’s leading practitioners in Wills, Probate, Trust and Tax, in which he has specialised since qualifying as a Solicitor in 1986, and was one of the earliest members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners.

Having gathered a loyal following of clients, David’s new clients now come entirely from personal recommendations and referrals from Accountants, Financial Advisers and other Solicitors who recognise his knowledge and client care skills.

David regularly deals with multi-million pound Estates and associated pre- and post-death tax planning, but considers it a privilege and the best bit of his job to meet an incredible variety of people from all walks of life and different backgrounds irrespective of their wealth.

A Boro Season Ticket holder for more than 40 years (and an ever receding hairline to prove it!) David’s clients appreciate his approachable manner and “nothing is too much trouble” attitude.
