New Solicitor joins Wills and Probate team in Weston-super-Mare office

The Wills, Probate and Mental Capacity legal expertise already available in Wards Solicitors' Weston-super-Mare office has been further enhanced by the arrival of Solicitor, Jessica Joules.

Jessica, born and bred in Weston, worked her way up from a paralegal to a solicitor after finishing her law degree, specialising in Wills and Probate work during her training.

She joins Partner Rebecca Parkman, deputyship specialist and a key member of the Wills, Probate and Mental Capacity team, and Solicitor Emily Moberly.

Like Rebecca, who has lived and worked in Weston all her life, Jessica knows the local area well. She was drawn to Wards Solicitors by its reputation for excellence in private client law.

She adds: "As a newly qualified lawyer, I felt it was important to be working in a firm which has experienced people to learn from and a good reputation to help me gain in confidence.

"I also like the fact that I am working in my local community, one that I know well."

Jessica, who enjoys running and is a member of a local running group, will specialise in Will drafting, inheritance tax planning, probate and estate administration as well as mental capacity work including the application and registration of Lasting Powers of Attorney.

Rebecca Parkman says: "I am delighted to welcome Jessica to the team. She brings to her role a real commitment and passion for Wills, Probate and Mental Capacity work as well as considerable local knowledge."
