Providing high-quality legal services, since 1946.
That longevity reflects more than history; it demonstrates trust, continuity and a long-standing commitment to the community we serve. Today, our focus is firmly on the future. The firm is led by experienced, long-established partners — Shena Franklyn, Gordon Luckhurst and Bruce Wilkey — who are committed to maintaining high professional standards while ensuring the firm continues to evolve to meet modern legal needs. Each partner brings deep expertise, practical judgement and a shared belief in accessible, client focused legal services. Together, they ensure that the firm remains stable, forward-thinking and grounded in the values on which it was built.

Legal aid in the community
Giving back to the community has always been an important part of our work. We actively support access to justice through our involvement with Legal Aid, the National Free Wills Network, Free Wills Month, and Will Aid, providing legal services that help individuals and families who might otherwise struggle to obtain advice. These initiatives reflect our belief that good legal support should be available to all, not just those who can afford it.
Heritage & values
Being embedded in the local High Street for generations has allowed us to build lasting relationships with individuals, families and businesses. Many clients return to us throughout their lives — and across generations — because they value our combination of personal service, experience and integrity. While we are proud of our heritage, our priority is continuing to serve our clients and community with clarity, care and professionalism — today and in the years ahead.
Our people are our foundation…
Our skilled team of senior solicitors, legal executives assistants, legal accounts staff and support professionals are here to provide unwavering legal support.
