Simon is a Solicitor currently working in the Commercial Property Department at our Beeston office. During his training contract, Simon gained experience of Commercial Property and Charity Law, Residential Property, Wills & Probate and Family Law, assisting and shadowing experienced solicitors across our four offices.

Simon studied for his LLB Law undergraduate degree at Oxford Brookes University. He then spent 6 months living in North-East Brazil, leading a Tearfund gap year project there. When he returned to the UK, he completed a Children & Youth internship at St. Aldates, Oxford before working as a Youth Pastor at Oxford Community Church. Once that position ended, he completed his Legal Practice Course with a Masters in Professional Legal Practice (LPC LLM) as part of the first intake of the University of Law in Reading. He then spent two and a half years working as a paralegal in Guildford and then Reading, working in the areas of Commercial Debt Recovery and Professional Regulation.

Originally from Reading, Simon enjoys playing or keeping track of a variety of sports, ranging from badminton and table-tennis to spikeball to skiing. However, his main passion is football – he is a Reading FC fan (unfortunately for him)! Simon and his wife moved to Nottingham in November 2021. They love travelling and being a part of Trent Vineyard church where they serve in the kids, youth and worship bands. Simon was pleased to able to run the Oxford Half marathon, completing it in under two hours in October 2021!
