Our focus is on advising private clients on their legal affairs, including:

- property development;
- making a will, power of attorney, and inheritance planning;
- probate and estate administration; and
- care of the elderly and management of their affairs in later life.
We enjoy working for our clients, getting to know them personally and providing the best possible legal advice.
Hughes Solicitors has built its reputation on the quality of advice and the personal service which we provide. As a result, many of our new clients come to us through word of mouth and recommendation by clients or professional advisers.
