I am the Senior Partner at Penman Sedgwick, where I specialise in litigation and employment law. With over thirty years’ experience, I take pride in working closely with clients to be able to find a solution that works for all parties involved. That means working numerous hats, mediation wherever possible, taking the time to understand both parties’ requirements and to find a solution that gets results without legalities alone but with consideration for clients’ needs. I have particular expertise in contentious probate matters including inheritance act claims, will disputes, removal of executors and/or trustees and breach of trust cases.I am a full member of the Association of Contentious Trust and Probate Specialists (ACTAPS), one of only a few Hertfordshire solicitors to have achieved this accreditation. I am an experienced litigator in all areas of dispute resolution from court and tribunal hearings to mediation. I also advise businesses and individual clients on employment law matters, both contentious and non-contentious.I am also a member of the Employment Lawyers Association. We understand that litigation can often be stressful and worrying for our clients. Together with my team, we work to minimise this and act on your behalf to fight your case robustly. When entering mediation on your behalf, we act objectively to achieve the best possible outcomes for all parties.On 1st July 2013, my firm Penman Johnson LLP joined forces with Sedgwick Kelly LLP to become Penman Sedgwick LLP, which is now one of the biggest and long-established law firms in the Watford area. Sedgwick Kelly was established over 180 years ago in 1836 and Penman Johnson celebrated its centenary in 2012 – together we are building on the solid foundations laid by both firms over the many years during which we have each practised in this area.
