Creating Your Brand, One Banner at a Time
MarstonHarbottle is a well-established law firm located in the heart of Hexham, Northumberland. Our firm is the successor practice of Travis Marston & Co, which was founded in 1982 by Jane Marston and Andrew Travis. Since then, we have expanded and developed our practice to offer a comprehensive range of legal services to our clients. Our team of experienced solicitors is dedicated to providing quality legal advice and representation to individuals, families, and businesses in the local community and beyond.
Our Services
At MarstonHarbottle, we pride ourselves on offering a wide range of legal services tailored to meet the needs of our clients. Our areas of expertise include:
Residential Conveyancing
We understand that buying or selling a property can be a stressful and daunting experience. Our conveyancing team is here to guide you through the process, ensuring that everything runs smoothly and efficiently. We provide a bespoke conveyancing service, taking the time to explain the process to you and providing a clear quotation for our fees and any associated costs. Our experienced solicitors will handle all aspects of the transaction, from drafting contracts and negotiating terms to dealing with search fees, Land Registry registration fees, and any other necessary costs.
Divorce & Family Law
Our family law team is experienced in all aspects of divorce and family law, including financial disputes, child arrangements, and cohabitation agreements. We understand that these issues can be emotionally charged and sensitive, which is why our solicitors are committed to providing a supportive, empathetic, and non-judgmental service. We will work with you to understand your individual circumstances and goals, providing clear and practical advice to help you move forward. Our family law specialists are members of Resolution, a national organisation committed to promoting a constructive and conciliatory approach to family law issues.
Making your Will
It is vital to ensure that your wishes are clear and legally binding in the event of your death. Our experienced wills and probate team can help you create a will that accurately reflects your intentions, whether you require a simple will or a more complex trust arrangement. We can also advise you on issues such as inheritance tax planning and the appointment of executors.
Children
We understand that issues surrounding children can be particularly emotive and complex. Our family law team is experienced in dealing with child arrangement orders, specific issue orders, and prohibited steps orders. We can also provide advice and representation in cases concerning child abduction and international child relocation. Our solicitors are committed to promoting the best interests of the child at all times, and will work tirelessly to ensure a positive outcome for all parties involved.
Probate/Estate Administration
The death of a loved one can be a difficult and challenging time. Our experienced probate and estate administration team can help you navigate the complex legal and financial issues that can arise during this period. We can assist you with obtaining a grant of probate or letters of administration, administering the estate, and distributing assets in accordance with the will or the laws of intestacy. We understand the importance of dealing with these matters sensitively and efficiently, and will work closely with you to ensure that everything is handled correctly.
Powers of Attorney
It is important to consider who will make decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so. Our experienced solicitors can help you create a lasting power of attorney, appointing a trusted individual to manage your financial affairs or make decisions about your health and welfare. We can also advise on issues surrounding deputyship, mental capacity, and the Court of Protection.
Legal Aid/Legal Help
We are committed to providing access to justice for all, regardless of their financial circumstances. Our solicitors are experienced in applying for legal aid and legal help, and can advise on eligibility criteria and the application process. We can also provide advice and representation on a private basis, providing competitive quotations for our services.
