Russell & Russell Solicitors has opened a new meeting space in Westhoughton.

The office, which is located at 112 Market Street, is open as of today, servicing clients between Bolton and Wigan.

Open Monday to Friday, between 9am and 5pm, the firm will offer clients advice and guidance on conveyancing, wills and probate, family matters, personal injury compensation claims, criminal defence services and commercial property law.

“We’ve been looking at opening a branch in the area for some time and when this particular building became available, we jumped at the chance”, said Judith Bromley, managing partner at Russell & Russell.

“Our new location offers clients a convenient way of speaking to someone about a legal issue. They won't need to make an appointment; instead they can call in and speak to someone direct or arrange for one of the team to give them a call when it's best for them.

“Our philosophy is all about making it easy for clients to access legal advice. In addition to our branch network and our drop in advice centre on Newport Street in Bolton, which is open on Saturdays, the new Westhoughton office is another way we hope to provide it.”

This latest news follows that of the firm converting to a limited liability partnership (LLP) and an alternative business structure (ABS) in February this year. The firm currently employs 220 staff and the Westhoughton opening brings the number of Russell & Russell branches to 14 across the North West region.
