Nicholas Buckman
With over 20 years experience as a specialist Mental Capacity lawyer, Nicholas has particular
expertise in dealing with the Court of Protection and establishing Personal Injury Trusts for high
net worth claimants. Nicholas works in conjunction with Personal Injury Specialist lawyers to
achieve the best results possible in very trying circumstances for the patient and their family.
Nicholas offers his clients realistic and practical advice in easing the process of having to take
over the responsibility of dealing with someone’s financial affairs. He is particularly adept at
co-ordinating and pulling together all the strands – from builders who have to adapt a property,
finding a Case manager and Occupational Therapist, introducing care regimes and employing
carers in addition to overseeing financial budgets to sustain the injured party for the rest of their
lives.
Outside the office, Nicholas enjoys walking, or Scottish dancing after enjoying the good food and
wine at numerous hostelries along the edge of the Salisbury Plain where he lives with his family
and is keenly involved in music making of various types.
Membership: Nicholas is a member of STEP and Solicitors for the Elderly.
