Neil is one of the firm’s co-founders, together with Amanda Wilkins. Having qualified as a solicitor in 1995, he then embarked on their joint venture in early 2010. And since those first few days waiting for the work to come in, the business has gone on to become one of the busiest law firms in the region.

He has specialised in residential conveyancing work throughout his entire career and lives for the client-focused service that Angel Wilkins is renowned for. There’s no doubt that looking after clients in the right way has been the cornerstone of the business, even if it has resulted in the occasional 3.30am start to ensure just that! Dedicated? Yes. Insomniac? Maybe.

Neil’s other main focus can be summed up in one word: cars. He’ll openly admit they’re a guilty pleasure but is only just coming around to the fact he can only drive one at a time. Perhaps his annual insurance renewals might help him to reflect more on that…

When not sat in a car or at his desk, Neil likes to find time for running, reading and struggling with French. Two words he’s particularly mastered are ‘très’ and ‘difficile’.

Doing more property renovation and travelling is a hope for the future – in France, of course – although this is somewhat dependent upon finding more time and improving his Franglais!

Helen is a residential property solicitor and deals with all aspects of residential conveyancing, including building plots and land for development, newbuild sales, lease variations, deeds of easement, transfers of equity and remortgages.

Having qualified in 2008, Helen was a locum solicitor here from 2011 before permanently joining the team in 2013. In all that time, one thing has never changed: the buzz she gets from the variety of work that comes in and seeing how happy clients are once everything is sorted!

With a lust for exercise and fitness, she is a self-confessed circuit training and spin class addict, and aspiring triathlete… who also loves cooking, crochet, cocktails, and music concerts – although not necessarily in that order!

It’s hard to imagine, but if any time was left from doing all of that, then you’d find Helen forging an alternative career writing paranormal romantic novels (we don’t know either) or as a holistic therapy practitioner.

Having joined us in 2018 as a trainee conveyancer, Dan quickly made the step up to become a fully-fledged Conveyancing Executive. As a young Padawan developed by Amanda, he’s now putting all that conveyancing knowledge into practice – something his clients appreciate very much!

When not immersed in all things property-related, you’re likely to find Dan racing around the Oxfordshire countryside training for his next triathlon, or indulging his love of cooking and food under the guise of ‘carb-loading’.

And in a completely alternative universe, he’d resurrect his student radio talents – presumably as resident DJ on Angel Wilkins FM, playing topical pop-picker hits such as ‘Our house’ and ‘Take me home, country roads’…
