Matthew Wilson

Senior Associate

What can I do for you

Matthew is part of our insurance team, acting for a wide variety of professionals and their insurers in defence of claims against them. He has acted for lawyers, surveyors, IFAs, insurance brokers, accountants and surgeons, but particularly specialises in claims against financial professionals and surgeons. Matthew also advises insurers in respect of coverage matters.

Supporting your ambitions

Matthew has conducted numerous pieces of litigation raising a wide range of issues. Highlights include a (successful) trip to the Court of Appeal to defeat a £1 million+ claim and devising an exit strategy for solicitors from a complex trust dispute that involved multiple parties and various technical legal points. Litigation would have cost insurers significant sums and brought unwanted stress to their insured, but a practical and proactive approach meant that a settlement was concluded which significantly reduced insurers’ potential exposure and left all parties to the dispute satisfied with the outcome.

What do others say

Matthew is listed as a next generation lawyer in the Legal 500 and described as "a star of the future and is calm under pressure". 

What our clients say about us

  • I think Mills & Reeve are a wonderful firm. The support they have provided to us in a really difficult area has been brilliant, collaborative and commercially minded. The team were absolutely wonderful and a joy to work with. Amazing advice and support and a real collaborative effort with us. I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.
  • They are friendly, fast, always available and always on top of the game. I tend to judge my legal team against the other side's legal team and never doubt Mills & Reeve is the better of the two.
  • All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.
  • I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.

As many clients will testify, too many lawyers deliver the required legal expertise but fail to deliver an outstanding client experience. Which is why we always listen to our clients and constantly ask ourselves what we can do to deliver the results you expect.

You expect a close and attentive working relationship, with a lawyer that is responsive and available when you need them. You also want clear, pragmatic and commercial advice tailored to your needs, and transparency and certainty on costs. We completely agree. That’s why every day, through our culture and approach we are committed to delivering the exceptional results and service our clients expect of us.
