Newport Street to be New Home for Russell and Russell Solicitors

21/06/2016

Russell and Russell Solicitors is expanding to new offices in Bolton town centre. The firm is relocating back office staff and consolidating some of its legal team at 39 Newport Street.

From early July, staff will work from the upper two floors of the 4,000 sq ft building, while the ground floor will operate as a legal advice centre for clients wanting help with residential and commercial property, wills and probate, family matters, personal injury and criminal defence services.

"We're really excited about the new facilities", explained Derrick Smethurst, partner at Russell and Russell. "The new office will be in the heart of the retail district, giving people instant access to legal advice. We understand that it's not always possible to see a solicitor during normal working hours, so we'll be open from 8.30am - 6.00pm Monday to Friday and 10.00am - 4.00pm on a Saturday. Anyone wanting guidance on a legal issue won't need to make an appointment. Instead, they can call in at Newport Street and speak to someone direct or arrange for one of the team to give them a call when it's convenient for them. This is just one of the ways we aim to make life that little bit easier for the client."

The announcement is more good news for the town as it looks to build on the £3 million regeneration of Newport Street and the development of a £48 million transport interchange close by.
