We offer a first-rate legal service provided by experienced, friendly and caring staff. The vast majority of our staff are Dementia Friends. We have acted for many families for generations and we continue to attract new clients through recommendation.
Our History
Our practice has been established in Buxton for over 150 years. We combine the local knowledge and friendly, efficient service of a traditional firm, with the latest developments in legal practice and the use of modern information technology. Until 2010, the practice traded as a partnership, but since that time, we have traded as a limited company. We are well-regarded and aim to provide a friendly, fair, and expert service. Much of our work is either for existing clients or by recommendation from existing clients.
Our Services
We have four principal departments: Property, Private Client, Family, and Litigation. Our services include business disputes and litigation, children law, civil litigation, commercial property transactions, consumer problems, employment law, family law, house purchase and sales, neighbour disputes, wills, and probate. We combine excellent advice and service with a friendly, caring approach. We put our clients first, making sure they feel at ease. We explain how we charge at the outset, and many transactions are done for a fixed fee.
Private Client Department
Our Private Client Department specialises in Probate, Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, and Court of Protection cases.
Litigation Department
Our Litigation Department deals with employment matters, property and/or rights of way, building disputes, contested wills and estates.
Family Department
Our Family Department covers all aspects of legal work which arise not only when relationships break down but also when they develop and might require a more formal footing.

Our Property Department acts for buyers and sellers of freehold and leasehold land and landlords and tenants. We provide other property-related services, including remortgage work, auction advice, and first registration of land.
