About James
A trusted guide through life's most important decisions
Fully qualified, compassionate, and committed to making the process as simple as possible for you and your family.
My story
With 30 years of experience of working in the financial services and later life services sectors, I decided to become a will writer following some personal exposure to the profession. From my own personal experience writing a will and thinking about the future can be difficult, which is why I take a supportive approach with my clients. I help you think about the future, understand your options, and then I create a robust, professional will that ensure your requirements are met.
It’s important to me to do things properly, and so I’m a full member of the Institute of Professional Willwriters. The requirements to do this mean I’ve had to complete training, pass entrance exams, continuously develop my skills and carry the necessary professional indemnity and liability insurances. This means you can be confident that I will provide a high quality service to you, with the backing of a professional organisation.
I offer home visits as standard across the East Midlands, because I believe that something this important should be done in the comfort and privacy of your own home. I also offer appointments by video call across England and Wales, which are just as easy for those people who are comfortable using this technology.
