Our People

Simon qualified as a solicitor following service in the Cheshire Regiment in Hong Kong, Cyprus, Canada, Germany, Northern Ireland and Bosnia.

Simon deals with two main areas of law: commercial property and charity, the latter of which he is recommended in Chambers and Partners as a leading expert. He undertakes all aspects of non contentious charity work, in particular charity property, including acquisitions and disposals as well as options and site assembly for development. He advises on the formation of charities and incorporation of existing and new charities.

He has extensive experience of ecclesiastical matters acting in the past for Diocesan Boards of Finance, Incumbents and Sequestrators in relation to Benefice land as well as for Parochial Church Councils, especially in property matters including voluntary registrations of Glebe and Parsonage land as well as Diocesan Corporate property.

In the commercial property sector he carries out a wide range of work including large scale voluntary registrations and asset disposals.

When Simon is not helping his clients unlock their property’s full potential he likes running up and down mountains (for fun!) and skiing.
