It is with huge regret we announce the sad passing of David Matthews who passed away on the 8th June 2025 after a short illness bravely borne. David’s passing was unexpected and a huge shock to all his friends, colleagues, and most importantly his family.
All our thoughts are with Sandra and his children, Paul, Anna and Sarah. David worked as a consultant with our practice for the past 13 years dealing primarily with criminal matters. David previously practiced in Liverpool City Centre owing his own firm “David Matthews & Co.” However, for the past 20 or so years he has focused primarily on Wrexham Mold and North Wales. He appeared regularly at all the courts and police stations in Liverpool, North Wales and surrounding areas.
David was a hugely experienced and respected Solicitor who was utterly committed to obtaining the best and fairest outcome for his clients. He approached his role with dedication but never lost his sense of humour. The criminal justice system has lost a respected and talented individual. We as a practice have lost a valued colleague and friend. Away from law, David was an avid Manchester City supporter and keen golfer, although his work left little time for enough games. We will miss our discussions about sport. Our thanks to fellow members of the profession and many clients who have contacted us to pass on their condolences. David’s funeral will be held at St Peters Church, Village Road, Heswall, Wirral CH60 0DZ on Friday 11th July at 2pm.
