Jesamine Somerville LLB (Hons)

Private Client Solicitor | Director

Jesamine is a Director and Solicitor specialising in Wills, trusts, estate administration, powers of attorney, and contentious probate. A New Forest local for over 20 years, she completed her law degree at Bournemouth University and obtained a distinction in her Legal Practice Course at the University of Law.

Lifetime Lawyers

Jesamine is an Accredited Lifetime Lawyer, having completed both the Lifetime Care in Practice and Lifetime Law in Practice awards. Advising older and vulnerable clients has long been a core focus of her work and a particular passion. With a lifelong exposure to the care sector, including supporting terminally ill patients to put Wills in place at St Bartholomew’s Hospital, she has extensive experience supporting clients around mental capacity, helping them to understand their options clearly and to make their own decisions for as long as possible. She is known for her patient, practical and approachable style, and for providing clear advice tailored to each client’s needs.

Outside of work, Jesamine enjoys reading, spending time with her family and travelling, particularly where it involves scuba diving. In the office, she and her colleagues are regular participants in the daily Wordle and Connections challenge, with the occasional crossword thrown in.
