Award-winning North West law firm Stephensons Solicitors LLP has expanded with a move to Middlebrook.
The expansion will enable the firm’s Commercial department, previously spread across two offices at Wigan Investment Centre and Bolton town centre, to come together under one roof at Sefton House, Middlebrook.
The new Commercial office will advise businesses on all aspects of law including business recovery, commercial property, corporate and company law, debt recovery, employment, insolvency and litigation, private client services and regulatory law.
The addition of the Middlebrook office means the firm now has seven offices in Middlebrook, Bolton, Wigan, Leigh, Manchester and St Helens.
Jonathan Chadwick, managing partner of Stephensons’ Commercial department, said: “Our move to Middlebrook is part of the firm’s growth strategy to provide the entire range of Commercial legal services to the region’s small and medium-sized businesses in the region.
“Middlebrook is one of the prime locations in the region for business. Being in such a central location will provide the perfect platform to expand in the Lancashire market. We intend to continue our strategy for growth, delivering excellent specialist legal services to business clients.
“We pride ourselves on providing high quality priced advice to help our clients’ businesses grow and this regional office is a great location to expand from.
“While many businesses are feeling the tough times at the moment, we are here to deliver the city centre quality and breadth of expertise.”
It’s been a successful period for Stephensons’ Commercial department, which was recently recommended by leading legal directory Legal 500. In addition, partner Paula Smith has joined the Corporate team, whilst the Commercial department has also expanded its range of fixed-price legal services to make legal services more affordable for business owners.
This includes the launch of fixed-price Commercial landlord and tenant packages, residential landlords’ services and business review audits. More information can be accessed online via Stephensons’ website, www.stephensons.co.uk.
