Solicitor Mark Jones has joined the private client department at Harrowells.
Jones (pictured) has more than 30 years of experience in private client work in Yorkshire and spent 25 years as a partner in two of Harrogate’s longest-established town centre law firms as well as in a Leeds city practice.
He will work out of Harrowells’s offices in Thirsk and St Saviourgate, York city centre.
Jones is among the longest serving members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP) and a member of the Private Client Section of the Law Society of England and Wales.
His expertise includes tax planning, the creation and administration of family trusts, drafting wills and estate administration, as well as handling contentious trust and estate work for families in dispute. He also acts as a trustee, attorney and Court of Protection deputy for clients.
Commenting on his appointment, Jones said: “I’ve known Harrowells from my legal training in York in the 1980s and I’ve watched with great interest as the firm has expanded in North and East Yorkshire. I’m delighted to be part of the ideal practice to meet the needs of my existing clients and contacts and be involved in its development plans.”
