Hello! I’m Harri Thompson, founder of Burdett Legal
I am deeply passionate about giving back to the community, am actively involved in various philanthropic endeavours, and where possible give back to the local community by contributing my time, resources and expertise to try and make a positive impact on society.
With a robust background in both Law and Financial Services, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to my business, helping clients navigate the intricate terrain of estate planning with precision and care.
Having completed my Law Degree and Legal Practice training, I embarked on a career in financial services; all of which were the building blocks for my career.
Why Burdett Legal?
Burdett Legal was founded to meet a clear need in the estate planning space: expert legal guidance delivered with clarity, care, and a client-first approach. We recognised that too often, clients are left overwhelmed by jargon or offered one-size-fits-all solutions. Our mission is to change that.
We specialise in estate planning that is strategic, tailored, and accessible. Whether we’re advising on Wills, trusts, or legacy structures, we focus on understanding each client’s goals and delivering solutions that balance legal robustness with real-world practicality.
At Burdett Legal, we add value by combining deep legal knowledge with clear communication, efficient processes, and a strong commitment to client service. We work closely with families, professionals, and advisers to create plans that protect wealth, reduce risk, and provide peace of mind. That’s what sets us apart—and that’s why our clients choose us.
Comprehensive & effective Estate Plans
I am committed to providing tailored solutions that reflect each client’s unique circumstances and goals. I approach every case with a meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that clients’ wishes are translated into comprehensive and effective Estate Plans.
Whether it’s drafting Wills, establishing Trusts, Lasting Powers of Attorney or implementing tax-efficient strategies, I leverage my legal and financial acumen to deliver results that exceed expectations.
In my leisure time, I enjoy exploring the outdoors walking my dogs and spending quality time with family and friends, and my long term goal is to build an eco house on a smallholding and to indulge further in my love for travel.
