Bio

Peter is the Managing Partner of the firm.

Born in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, Peter was brought up in the heart of the country in Walsall near Birmingham. Putting Gulliver to shame he travelled north to begin his degree at the University of Hull before moving to Leeds to complete the postgraduate diplomas in Law and Legal Practice.

Peter qualified as a Solicitor in 2005 and has over 10 years Post Qualification Experience.

During this time Peter has dealt with all matters relating to Property and Wills, Probate and Trusts.

What areas of law do you specialise in?

Property & Wills, probate and trusts

How many years have you worked in this field?

I qualified as a solicitor in 2005 and have been working at Taylor Bracewell since 2003

What is the main reason you got into law?

Suits? Sadly I’m old enough to say that it was L.A Law that first got me wanting to be a lawyer! You might have to look it up….

What is the best part of working for Taylor Bracewell?

How dynamic we are. The size of the firm allows us to constantly focus on changes and improvements to client care and service. We have recently upgraded our case management system and, once we have removed the usual gremlins involved in such a process, we hope to be offering our clients some new and exciting ways of dealing with their legal matters that will really make their lives easier when dealing with a Solicitor.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with friends and family, walking on a golf course, watching cricket or American football or watching films. I enjoy cooking and hope to soon be attending a course on how to prepare the perfect curry.
