Harrison Clark Rickerbys—David King

New head of private client services at HCR

The Wye Valley office of Harrison Clark Rickerbys has a new head of private client services in partner David King. He joins the firm from Slater and Gordon, where he was principal solicitor in the inheritance and welfare team.

David is experienced in advising high net worth clients on issues such as estate planning and administration, trusts, and wills. In his new role he will head up the firm’s private client practice across the Wye Valley and Hereford area.

The firm’s overall head of private client services, Dawn Oliver, said: ‘David’s appointment is a real win for our clients in the Wye Valley and South Wales who will benefit from his outstanding skills and experience, especially if they want to protect their family’s assets.’

David added: ‘I am delighted to be joining such a vibrant team, which is clearly developing and strengthening in this area. I look forward to working with a wide range of clients, from individuals to charities and financial bodies, to advise them on trusts and estates issues.’

David's appointment continues a trend of changing leadership at the firm, with a new head of the Thames Valley corporate team, Rachel Turner, being announced earlier this month.
