Matthew read law at the University of Kent, graduating in 2009, and went on to complete the Legal Practice Course at the College of Law in London with a Distinction in 2011. Prior to joining Palmers Solicitors, Matthew spent a year working in the personal insolvency department of an insolvency practitioner’s firm, dealing primarily with bankruptcy cases.

Matthew joined Palmers Solicitors as a trainee in 2012 and upon qualification as a Solicitor in September 2014 has continued in our Company Commercial Department. In February 2023, he was promoted to become Departmental Director. Matthew regularly advises and represents clients on a broad range of commercial and corporate issues with particular emphasis upon:

  • corporate finance
  • commercial law matters
  • contracts
  • terms of business
  • shareholder agreements
  • business sales and acquisitions
  • intellectual property
  • business law
  • independent legal advice on personal guarantees

In his spare time, when he is not in the stands passionately supporting West Ham United FC, Matthew is a keen footballer and golfer.

Matthew Johnson – Matthew was very quick to pick up the brief, clear about the plan and timescales and has remained diligent throughout. Matthew is obviously technically competent in his job; however, a key strength is his ability to communicate in plain English and quickly establish a trusted working relationship. Matthew is smart and interpersonally effective. I have no hesitation in recommending your firm to colleagues and I’m very grateful for Matthew’s support.

Matthew Johnson – I come from a family of lawyers and so I have a good idea what a business should expect from its legal representatives. Against this benchmark, Palmers Solicitors is very good indeed, providing straightforward advice and explanations that are easy to digest. The team is dedicated to solving problems in a friendly and helpful manner.
