One of Yorkshire’s leading law firms has opened a new office in Bridlington.
Williamsons Solicitors is now providing an extensive range of legal services from 138 Quay Road, Bridlington, near the town’s magistrates’ court.
The firm, which has a growing reputation in several fields of law, wants to enhance its service to customers in the town, who tend to be currently served from its Driffield office and Hull headquarters.
Bill Waddington, director at Williamsons, said: “We already have a strong client base in Bridlington and feel this is an opportunity to form closer relationships, and new ones as well. We are now able to offer our specialist expertise to more of the town’s residents and businesses and those living in the surrounding areas.”
Williamsons’ legal services include family and childcare, personal injury, clinical negligence and industrial disease, criminal and road traffic defence work, wills and probate, and residential and commercial property.
Included in the personnel at the new office is Rebecca Lovel, a family and childcare specialist. Mrs Lovel, who is a member of Resolution, a national organisation that promotes the constructive resolution of family disputes, deals with all areas of family law, in particular issues regarding children, public law care proceedings, separation and divorce.
Williamsons Solicitors is regularly featured in the independent national guides Legal 500 and the Chambers Guide for its work in family, clinical negligence and criminal law. The guides are an independent appraisal of solicitors’ standing.
The firm recently became one of the first legal practices in the country to be accredited by the new Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) from the Law Society.
The scheme has been introduced by the legal profession’s governing body as a way of demonstrating to the general public that law firms meet strict criteria for residential property conveyancing.
Williamsons Solicitors is keen to support young, local lawyers in their careers and offers training contracts after completion of an undergraduate law degree and legal practice course.
The firm is also very active in local communities and regularly sponsors and supports charitable events such as Sue Ryder Care and the Sailors’ Families’ Society.
