Leah Vincent LLB (Hons), LLM, TEP

Solicitor

As a solicitor in the wills, trusts & probate team, I help people to look after their affairs and achieve their wishes for the future.

I strive to carry out my work with a professional and conscientious attitude, combined with an understanding of the need to provide clear, concise and practical advice tailored to my client’s requirements and circumstances.

I am a Dementia Friend and aim to provide the right support to vulnerable clients in order for them to access the legal services that they require.

I have qualified with the Society of Trusts and Estate Practitioners (STEP), the internationally recognised and most comprehensive qualification in the trusts and estates field. I am a fully accredited member of the Association of Lifetime Lawyers (previously Solicitors for the Elderly), and am also a member of the STEP Digital Assets Special Interest Group as I have a particular interest in digital assets.
