MILES HUTCHINSON & LITHGOW SOLICITORS ARE PRACTISING IN SALTBURN ONCE MORE We are pleased to announce that our new offices are open at First Floor, 15 Station Street Saltburn-by-the-Sea and we have a presence to serve the people of Saltburn again. Our present Partners Fergus M Grant and Alastair J Gowans and our Paralegal Sara Dewing are now on hand to offer our previous friendly and efficient service and Mr Grant’s Saltburn Legal Secretary Sam Caley has returned to us. Our Practice has a long history and was formed approximately 115 years ago in Middlesbrough by Miles Hutchinson & James Lithgow and although the Partners have changed over the years we have retained the name as a recognizable brand name in the Teesside area. In 1977 we amalgamated with another well established Practice in Middlesbrough named W. Stanley Smith & Partners. Many people will remember Stanley Smith as being from Saltburn and at that time he had a very small office in Dundas Street and so began the establishment of Miles Hutchinson & Lithgow’s branch office in Saltburn. In 1978 we relocated to 27 Milton Street and were able to employ more staff and have a full time office in the town. In November 2016 we were able to take on the lease of the first floor at 15 Station Street which is a more centralized office. People in Saltburn may remember this as Langham’s Dental Surgery which had been empty for many years and required extensive building work to turn it into the bright and airy modern office that we have now opened. As our address says we are on the first floor and have stairs but if anyone is unable to deal with the stairs
then we are still happy to carry out home visits to accommodate our Clients. Please ring to make this request. We pride ourselves in being one of the few High Street Practices remaining as many changes in the profession have seen more factory style services being offered which deal with Clients remotely but we prefer being the face to face Solicitors who build a friendly relationship with our Clients. Our Partners have 77 years of experience in the profession between them. Our Senior Partner Fergus Grant is head of Conveyancing, dealing with both domestic conveyancing and commercial leasing, Probate, Wills, Powers of Attorney and related issues. Alastair Gowans is head of Family and Criminal and an accredited Family Law member and Criminal advocate and also works in Wills Probate and Conveyancing and related issues. Sara Dewing is an accredited Immigration Specialist and attends the Saltburn office one day per week to offer her services in this area of law. Our charitable work includes taking part in Will Aid each year. Over the years we have raised thousands of pounds for this very worthwhile Charity by interviewing Clients, preparing drafts and then engrossing their wills for signature in return for them donating the cost to Will Aid. In this we give our services free. We offer this service at both of our offices and will be doing so again this year in November. Look out for the Will Aid announcement in the Local Press and the announcement already on their website and you will see that they support nine charities including AgeUK, British Red Cross, Christian Aid, NSPCC and Save the Children.
