Jeremy Brooks

Solicitor | Private Client

Jeremy qualified as a Solicitor in 1991 after graduating from the University of Leicester with an LLB in Law and the College of Law with Merit in the Solicitors' finals. He subsequently practiced at a Peterborough-based law firm. In 1994, Jeremy trained as a Priest in the Church of England and worked for the Church for over twenty-five years. Jeremy has since completed an MA in Theology at Cambridge University and obtained a doctorate from Kings College London in 2012. Jeremy’s doctoral research focused on the changing nature of funerals and as an author of a number of books, he provides guidance on the resources required as people prepare for their later years.

Jeremy specialises in:

  • Advice and drafting Wills
  • Inheritance Tax advice
  • Managing estates for probate purposes
  • Dealing with capacity issues
  • Lasting Powers for property and financial affairs and health and welfare matters
  • Advising clients on deputyship orders and applications to the Court of Protection

Outside of work, Jeremy enjoys the cinema, cookery and swimming. He cycles across London to work in a vain attempt to impress his clients.

  1. A helpful, comfortable and friendly service, prepared to accommodate my mobility needs, with options of video calls and personal meetings. Clear and straight forward professional advice. Will definitely re-engage for future legal needs and highly recommend.

  2. I was told the facts and information I needed to make my decisions in a clear, easy to understand way. I was able to make decisions in my own time and did not feel rushed. All paperwork was raised in good time. Definitely knows his stuff. Anybody who went for advice on law would be well looked after.

  3. After my husband passed away, I needed to make a new Will. At a time of deep grief, it wasn’t easy. Jeremy was so understanding and helpful. The whole experience was made easier because of this.

  4. My husband and I came across Grant Saw a few years ago now. As a company they were always very helpful, kind and totally professional. When the family and I needed to work on something of a complex nature we were recently introduced to Jermey. Apart from being excellent at his job he is wonderful in taking care of his clients. He is a problem solver, and also stood his ground when he was representing us. When he went the extra mile to get something over the line for us as a deadline approached we couldn’t be happier that we were working with him. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

  7. A small office with friendly staff, not the least bit intimidating. Business dealt with efficiently and clearly. The only difficulty I found was with the online identification app, and I see from other comments that I am not the only one. However, it can be bypassed. (And they have excellent Fox’s glacier mints in the waiting room!}
