Jolyon (Joe) is a duty solicitor based in our Exeter Office. He has spent all his working life in Devon, training and working in Torquay with WBW Solicitors in a busy criminal department for more than ten years. After a brief spell in Plymouth, he joined our Exeter office in 2019.
Joe qualified as a solicitor in 2004 after studying in Aberystywth gaining a BA(Hons) degree in English Literature in 2001 and an LLB(Hons) degree in law in 2003.
He specialises in all areas of criminal law. He is a great believer that the best advice to be given in a case starts at the police station, face to face. He is a keen trial advocate and is experienced representing in cases of motoring offences, violence, and dishonesty. His Crown Court caseload is always a mixture of serious violence, sexual offences present and historic and works with a range of local barristers to obtain the best results for clients.
Away from the Courts he is a keen reader and a member of the Exeter Writers. He enjoys treading the boards and has dabbled in amateur theatre for companies across Devon for the best part of a decade, playing parts ranging from the darkness of Shakespearean villains through to the joy and laughter of Pantomime Dames. However serious your situation, Joe will always work to put you at ease, make sure you understand what is happening and deal with any questions you may have.
