Joel Weitzman

Manager and Director of The Probate Practice

Joel joined NLP in 1997 as a tax consultant and now leads The Probate Practice, the firm’s dedicated probate division. With more than two decades of experience across tax and probate, he is a steady, trusted adviser for clients dealing with complex and sensitive estate matters.

He was among the first professionals licensed by the ICAEW to offer probate services when accountants were granted that authority. Today, he helps clients navigate Inheritance Tax, guides them through the probate process, and often supports families responding to HMRC enquiries. His calm approach and technical depth have seen him called upon even when NLP is not the original adviser.

Joel also maintains a loyal portfolio of tax clients, offering practical, clear advice that reflects both his experience and his empathy.

Outside work, Joel enjoys family life with his wife and young son. He’s a keen traveller, a sports fan, and a devoted follower of Tottenham Hotspur.
