About Dawn Parkes

I joined the firm in 1989 shortly after my qualification having undertaken my law degree at the University of East Anglia and was the firm’s Managing Partner from 2014 to 2022. I specialise in Private Client work and can assist you in all aspects of wills, probate including intestacy, powers of attorney, Court of Protection applications and trusts and tax planning.

I am friendly and approachable and aim to provide clear, practical advice in a straightforward way. I particularly enjoy getting to know our clients and building a strong working relationship. I am a full member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners.

‘Your firm was very good from the onset to completion. We found Dawn very helpful at all times. Thank you very much.’

‘We were very satisfied and reassured by the expert professional advice we received on a family matter. The eventual outcome was achieved in a much less stressful way, under your guidance, than would have otherwise been the case.’

‘Each visit to the office was comfortable and laid back. Everything was explained in layman’s terms to make understanding so much simpler without all the legal jargon which can be inhibiting. Dealing with my parents’ estate was a pain free experience.’
