Kirsty Limacher - Director
Having spent my career working in private law firms, I decided I've now stepped away from the traditional way of doing things. I started Sherlock Legal Consulting to enable me to give legal advice on a consultancy basis to provide a better work life balance.
I am a passionate advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and aim to provide a safe space for members of the community and our allies to access advice on Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Estate administration and other Private Client matters.
I provide advice on a consultancy basis as a Private Client Partner via nexa law, a new model law strong on diversity. Nexa is a law firm with a national presence, and as part of nexa I can provide my services flexibly where and when is convenient for my clients.
I specialise in Wills, Estate Administration, Powers of Attorney, Court of Protection deputy applications and elderly client matters. I have a particular interest in advising cohabiting couples and those with alternative relationship structures.
I'm a committee member of the Law Society's LGBT+ Lawyers Division and have recently been appointed as a Trustee of Ask for Clive, a charity that partners with venues to promote inclusion and to create welcoming environments for the LGBTQ+ community. We work directly with local communities and venues, and collaborate with law enforcement on training and reporting initiatives.
I am a Fully Accredited Member of Solicitors for the Elderly (SFE), a Dementia Friend, and an affiliate member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP). I am dual qualified having been admitted to the Roll of Solicitors in Ireland in October 2021, though currently non-practising in Ireland.
On a personal basis, I've recently discovered a love of motorcycles, gaining my full licence in 2019 and I'm always keen to connect with fellow bikers. In January 2021 I adopted an adorable rescue Rottie cross who is my Barkministrator, and the namesake for Sherlock Legal Consulting (see below).

Sherlock Bones - Barkministrator
I'm mum's bestest boy, I'm paid in treats and cuddles, and I also work for my dad's company Logistical Training.
I'm a Rottweiler cross and came to live with mum and dad in 2021 after a short stay with my wonderful foster family after being rescued by Heathlands Animal Sanctuary in Royston.
I enjoy country walks, checking my weemails, sniffing for squirrels, and my best friend is a Jack Russell called Bruno.
