SIMON LEYLAND
CHIEF EXECUTIVE – DIRECTOR RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROPERTY TEAM

I joined Maxwell Hodge in August 1994 and qualified as a Solicitor in September 1996. Throughout that time, I have had various roles and I have been Chief Executive of the Company since December 2013. I am currently based at our Formby Office and you can contact me on 01704 872 156.

I am responsible for the overall leadership and management of the Company. I also oversee our internal Business Support Team (comprising of day-to-day operations relating to Finance, IT and HR), as well as compliance and regulatory issues as the Compliance Officer for Legal Practice (COLP).

In relation to my legal practice, I act for clients in Medical Negligence cases, and I am the Director Responsible for the Property Team.

During my time at Maxwell Hodge, there have been many changes but it has always been the case that I enjoy working with a team of people, and seeing others progress in their careers. I not only try to make a difference to the lives of my clients by striving to get them a positive outcome, but also to the lives of my colleagues by helping and supporting them throughout their employment with Maxwell Hodge.

Our Company values are ‘Team, Guidance, Support and Resilience’, and these values are reflected in the work we do for our clients as well as the way we interact with our colleagues.
