Crane and Walton

Crane and Walton is a legal practice which was founded over 100 years ago in Coalville, Leicestershire. The founder, Charles Crane, soon expanded and opened two more offices in Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Leicester. Crane and Walton employ 18 lawyers who all specialise in different areas of the law. The company can deal with the legalities which arise after a death, a divorce or a work related problem. In addition, Crane and Walton have a busy conveyancing department which deals with all aspects of property law, both residential and commercial. Recently the company made some changes and now operates as an LLP (Limited Liability Partnership). This move to a modern form of business practice will enable the company to provide a better service for clients and also assist in the further expansion of the business.

Two years ago, Crane and Walton opened a new office in Melbourne, Derbyshire because there was a growing need for its services in the town and surrounding area. The company now has 18 highly trained lawyers on its staff and these experts, together with the 20 administration staff, can offer assistance to new and existing clients on all legal matters. The service which Crane and Walton provide is very personal as the company believes in fostering excellent long term relationships with its clients. The company website provides biographies for each of its lawyers and gives information about how the company can be contacted through the website, by telephone, by email or by a personal visit. The website of Crane and Walton also gives details about the process that a new client can expect to go through after the initial consultation.

Crane and Walton have specialist lawyers for each area of the law including matrimonial law, charity law and agricultural law. Specialists in other areas of law like conveyancing and litigation are available and each area is dealt with at a different office. The Ashby-de-la-Zouch office deals with mainly commercial and residential property law, wills and trusts and probate and business law. The company has a specialist in charity law and is involved with sponsoring the Ashby Hastings Cricket Club as well as aiding the Sir John Moore Foundation.

Clients who contact Crane and Walton will receive excellent service and the company has several accreditations from both CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) and Lexcel, the Law Society scheme
