Jessica Jarvis
Hello, I’m Jess – a Solicitor specialising in Court of Protection, trust, tax, and estate matters. With nearly a decade of experience, I advise and support vulnerable individuals, their families, and professionals in managing complex financial and property affairs.
My practice includes advising on high-value deputyships, statutory wills, personal injury trusts, and estate administration. I have experience assisting with trust structures and tax considerations as part of broader wealth management strategies, helping to ensure that clients’ assets are protected and managed in their best interests. I am often involved in cases where cross-border elements or complex family dynamics add an extra layer of consideration.
In addition to acting as a professional deputy and trustee, I regularly lead on investigations into financial abuse and fraud, taking a meticulous and pragmatic approach to safeguarding vulnerable clients. My focus is always on achieving the best outcomes while maintaining a compassionate and client-centred approach.
Beyond my legal work, I am passionate about mentoring and supporting junior lawyers and paralegals as they build their careers. I am proud to serve as an Ambassador for Ladies of Law, promoting women in the profession, and as a Trustee for Age UK.
When I’m not working, I’m often found enjoying a good science fiction novel or cooking with my family. I’m committed to continuous learning, collaboration, and delivering an empathetic, high-quality service.
