Back in early April, our Chief Legal Officer, Helen Claydon, won 'Highly Commended' for Probate Lawyer of the Year at The Probate Industry Awards 2026.

We were also shortlisted for Probate Law Firm of the Year: Boutique, with our sister company, Simpler Law, also up for Will Writing Firm of the Year, despite tough competition this year. It has been 8 years since the ‘Probies’ (The Probate Industry Awards) were established and remain the perfect opportunity to recognise shining industry talent.


Early in April we made our way down to the luxurious London Pan Pacific for the awards night. It was just as glamorous as promised!


A big ‘Thank you’ is due for our clients who have made this possible. We hope to keep your trust in us and keep things uncomplicated.


We would like to also take a moment to celebrate Helen in particular who continues to amaze us. Did you know she was the very first female Today's Wills and Probate Industry Champion? Awarded to her in 2023, where she was voted for by professionals from across the sector.
