Contact Philip

I am a Solicitor and Partner based across the Firm’s Frodsham and Northwich offices, specialising in Wills, Trusts and Estates.

I have been with Butcher & Barlow throughout my legal career, having trained with the Firm before qualifying as a Solicitor in 2012. I advise individuals, families and trustees on a wide range of Private Client matters, providing clear and practical advice tailored to their circumstances.

My areas of expertise include:

Wills;
Probate and estate administration;
Inheritance Tax planning;
Trusts;
Powers of Attorney; and
Court of Protection matters.

I understand that Private Client matters often involve important personal and family decisions. My aim is to provide straightforward advice, explain complex legal issues clearly and help clients make informed decisions with confidence.

Before qualifying as a Solicitor, I studied History at the University of St Andrews before completing my legal qualifications at the College of Law, Chester.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, building Lego creations and spending time with my two children.

    Phil Jennings at the Frodsham Office is just simply put, very good at his job. His expertise and experience mean that I feel I can trust his advice and ability to get the job done without fuss. He is always super helpful and accommodating, provides regular written updates and available in-person, on the phone or by video conference when I have needed to talk with him in more depth than can be covered in email.
