my previous firm to assist the large Trusts and Estates Team at Ashfords, which has an excellent reputation for being able to advise clients from individuals of modest means to the extremely wealthy  to manage their personal wealth.”

We are sure his experience and strong interpersonal skills mean he will prove a significant asset both to the team and to the firm and will further enhance our Agricultural Law offering.”
