Northamptonshire law firm Wilson Browne Solicitors has appointed Court of Protection partner Michael Neal-Brook to its Northampton team, adding further specialist expertise in mental capacity and deputyship work.
Michael brings more than 12 years’ experience in the legal sector and is approaching ten years since qualifying as a solicitor. His work focuses on Court of Protection and mental capacity matters, supporting vulnerable clients and their families.
His appointment strengthens Wilson Browne’s Court of Protection practice, led by partner Vicki Pearce, head of its Care Funding and Court of Protection team. The wider firm operates six offices across Northamptonshire and Leicestershire, in Northampton, Kettering, Corby, Higham Ferrers, Wellingborough and Leicester.
Michael is an accredited member of the Association of Lifetime Lawyers, an affiliate member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners and a senior member of the Professional Deputies Forum.
He is also recognised as a specialist solicitor by the National Autistic Society and is a Dementia Friend. The Thalidomide Trust regularly recommends him to beneficiaries and their families.
Michael said: “Joining Wilson Browne felt like a natural fit. The firm’s commitment to delivering practical solutions and exceptional client care aligns perfectly with my own values. After spending 12 years at my previous firm, it was important to find a firm that shared my ethos of putting clients first. I’m excited to be joining such a highly regarded team and look forward to supporting clients and their families.”
Vicki said: “Michael is a fantastic addition to our team. His expertise, experience and dedication to client care are clear to see, and he shares our commitment to achieving the very best outcomes for our clients. We are delighted to welcome him to Wilson Browne and look forward to the positive impact he will make.”
