Supporting Farming Families since 1770 – Solicitors that last a lifetime.

15th Dec 2023 Supporting Farming Families since 1770 – Solicitors that last a lifetime.

We have supported local rural and agricultural families in areas around Midsomer Norton, Bath and Frome for decades. It is a pleasure to serve generations of the same families with their legal needs as they go through life both personally and commercially.

Agriculture is an important component of any community, and this is why every year we sponsor the Fatstock Show.

The Fatstock Show – Standerwick

The annual Fatstock show is an event hosted annually at Frome is a historic local event that has taken place since the late 1800’s. It is supported by The Richard Oatley Foundation and auctioneers; Symonds & Sampson, Frome Livestock Auctioneers and Cooper and Tanner.

When attending Fatstock we see first-hand the close relationships that exist within local farming, and as a community focussed law firm we are delighted to be continually involved.

The variety of people we meet at Fatstock each year is certainly the most enjoyable aspect. From local farmers to our friends in the property industry, it’s always nice to have a catch up or to put a face to a name of those we haven’t met yet!

This year we sponsored The Best Steer of Continental Breed Category

This year we had the honour of sponsoring the ‘Best Steer of Continental Breed’ and George Persson of our Wills and Probate Department, and Laura Kellaway and Matt Thorne of our Conveyancing Department handed over first prize to Miss Sarah Harrison of Parsonage Farm, Lynhurst for her 529kg Limousin Steer.

The Fatstock show is a significant social event that brings together the local market community and farming families with vendors, buyers, hauliers, and local businesses.It is no secret that the farming industry has experienced challenges in recent times, which is why we provide easy to understand, convenient and cost transparent legal services to help this community with their needs. This is why we look forward to showing up each year and getting involved in supporting this fantastic event and the many that attend.

We offer services from Will writing, to succession planning, to Estate and Tax advice and conveyancing and commercial business in a way so suit, whether in person, by telephone, email, in writing or via video call.

Showing up when you need it most.
