Williamsons Solicitors

Our 130-strong team comprises expert solicitors and skilled support staff, working together to obtain the best outcomes. We have a national, as well as a local profile, and director and senior solicitor Bill Waddington, as immediate past chair of the Criminal Lawyers’ Association, led the countrywide campaign against legal aid cuts. Our in-house IT expertise keeps us fully abreast of new technology, bringing increased efficiency for our customers and enabling us to take the business forward. Our first client came through the doors in 1890, the same year as the Forth Bridge opened, and as with those fabled painters, the job has been non-stop ever since. Many of life’s challenges, such as wills and probate, house purchase, family issues and personal injury, are our bread and butter legal work. As a long-established and respected local firm, we will guide you through these potential minefields with sensitivity and scrupulous attention to detail, if possible trying to resolve problems without conflict. We are the people to ask about the day-to-day legal matters. We can help you in nine core fields of law, covering almost every eventuality. It is the nature of law that you never quite know what’s around the corner and our solicitors are always ready to take on the big headline challenges, sometimes winning against the odds. Successes include £multimillion medical negligence claims and reuniting a mother with her three children who had been abducted to Afghanistan.
