Alison Armstrong

Partner – Private Client

I am an 18-year qualified Solicitor and Trust and Estate Practitioner and I look after private client legal matters for high net worth individuals, families and entrepreneurs. I deal with wills and succession planning; trusts, tax and estate planning; probate and estate administration; mental capacity and Court of Protection, including powers of attorney.

Prior to merging with Spencer West in July 2021, I ran my own boutique law firm for 10 years.




"We were very happy with the service that we received from Alison. We particularly appreciated the speed of response, the attention to detail and Alison’s efficient yet sympathetic approach. We had complete confidence in her."
Mr and Mrs Bayley, private clients

"Alison administered my Father's estate. It was a very emotional time for me and I was comforted by the fact I had Alison at the helm ensuring it was done properly, efficiently and sympathetically. I recommend her whole heartedly as it made the whole process manageable. My Father would have been thrilled his affairs were in apple pie order."
Juliette Peters, Solicitor

"Alison has shown both strong technical and ethical skills when acting for both family and clients over the last at least half a dozen years. Admirably straightforward in both advice and fee quotations Alison has consistently added value wherever she's been introduced."
Douglas Shanks, Chartered Accountant
