ABOUT PE WILSON & CO

P E Wilson & Co commenced on 2 January 2001 and was officially opened on 5th February 2001 by the then Mayor of Lambeth, Mrs Clare Whelan.   P E Wilson & Co operates from 106 Norwood High Street, London SE27 9NH. 

Phil Wilson is the proprietor and solicitor who started his legal career as an office junior law clerk with a firm of City solicitors before moving on to a West End firm. After six years experience of clerking in the High Court, Divorce and Probate Registry etc he left to qualify as a solicitor and later set up P E Wilson & Co.

OBJECTIVES
