Beverley Town Mayor Duncan Jack commended James Legal for the firm’s contribution to enhancing the Beverley community, as he cut the ribbon on the firm’s new Annie Reed Court office on Wednesday.
“Beverley is an expanding town and it’s important that our available services improve to cater for this. It’s fantastic to welcome James Legal into the town, especially given they are playing such an active part in the local community, including their voluntary work at the town’s Cherry Tree Centre,” he said as he declared the new office officially open on Wednesday, 26 February.
As well as offering business and private clients the whole range of legal services, James Legal’s friendly team provide walk-in, free legal advice every Wednesday morning at the town’s Cherry Tree Centre.
The ‘friendly, caring, approachable and human’ legal practice is renowned for its ‘fresh approach to law’ and was established in Hull a decade ago.
Since then, it has built an enviable reputation for ‘doing things differently’, with a staunch commitment to being down to earth and transparent over fees, as well as offering outstanding legal advice and support. Specialising in business law, the firm also offers expert help with everything from Wills and inheritance planning to divorce and separation, employment issues, disputes and conveyancing.
Complementing its sister office on Hull’s Hedon Road, James Legal’s new Annie Reed Court base also signals a rapid expansion, with eight new team members joining since September – many of them well known and respected lawyers in the region, including family law and private client gurus Leon Lurie and Dominic Hudson, and conveyancing expert Nicky Mounsor.
James Legal Founder and CEO, Nick Miller, said: “Officially opening our new Beverley office was a very proud moment. Our team has grown to 10 times its original size over the past 10 years, as a result of us having such great people, and I’m delighted to see our Beverley-based colleagues already establishing themselves as a positive new force within this thriving town.
“I’m looking forward to watching them make a difference in this community, as well as giving our clients from across East Yorkshire the convenience to engage with us in the most convenient location for them.”
He added: “We’re passionate about our reputation for delivering legal advice with integrity, and ‘walking the walk’ with the clients we help, and the Beverley office is the next step on our journey towards doing that for more people.”
