Rural England Supporter – Houldsworth Solicitors

Houldsworth Solicitors are based in the beautiful Ribble Valley in Lancashire, with offices in Clitheroe and Whalley (see our website www.houldsworthsolicitors.co.uk for details). The firm was established in 1817 but is very forward looking and proactive in its approach to business. We have widely embraced modern technology and as such our practice is now country wide, thanks to the internet.

The Senior Partner is John Houldsworth who is a past President of the Lancashire branch of the Country Land and Business Association. In 2017, John received the Pride of Ribble Valley award (which is awarded to 1 person only in each year) for services to the community.

We offer a complete range of legal services from conveyancing, both residential and commercial, including farm sales, Wills, Probate and Inheritance Tax Planning, Family and related matters and generally legal advice where necessary.

As we have many clients who are resident in rural areas, we are very conscious of the problems that this can bring.
Particularly, there are increasing difficulties with transport, housing, the lack of broadband, particularly for businesses, and the ever increase in rural crime.

Not only do we offer, and indeed have done so for many years, an initial interview absolutely free of charge, we are also more than happy to visit any clients, who may have transport difficulties, at home without an additional charge.
