Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I’ve been a solicitor for 30 years. The bulk of my career was spent as a legal manager for HMCTS, managing a team of solicitors and barristers. I moved into private practice in 2014, specialising in Wills, Probate, Estate Management and Lasting Power of Attorney. I joined Stephens Wilmot in its very early days to develop the Wills & Probate department. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my grandchildren and my two recently born great granddaughters. For relaxation I enjoy a quiet game of darts at my local social club.

Will and both power of attorney

Having lost my husband in 2023 I decided it was about time I made my will and sorted my power of attorneys out. I met with Simon who put me straight at ease and explained everything to me. Nothing was too much trouble. Simon made quite a few draft copies without any fuss at all until I was 100% happy with the completed draft.

Outstanding Service – Professional, Efficient, and Supportive

I recently engaged ‘Stephens Wilmot’ to assist with drafting my will, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. From start to finish, Simon Adshead was an absolute professional—efficient, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient throughout the entire process. What stood out most was Simon’s ability to truly listen and deliver exactly what I asked for. He took the time to understand my wishes in detail and translated them into a clear, legally sound document. His advice was always thoughtful and grounded in experience, helping me make informed decisions with complete confidence. Legal jargon can often be overwhelming, but Simon explained everything in plain English, making the complex feel simple and approachable. His calm and reassuring manner made what could have been a daunting task feel straightforward and even empowering. I highly recommend Simon and the team to anyone looking for expert guidance with their will or estate planning. A truly first-class experience from start to finish.

I was recommended this firm as I needed my Will written up and they came highly recommended. The recommendation was spot on. Simon helped me with my Will and also with my Power Of Attorney. Simon was really nice and easy to talk to. He knew exactly what I needed and answered any queries I had. Well deserved 5 star.
