Huddersfield based solicitors Ridley and Hall have been recognised as national experts by a legal publication.

The Legal 500, published for over twenty years provides the most comprehensive worldwide coverage currently available on legal services providers, in over 100 countries.

It’s used as a yardstick to measure firms by commercial and private clients as well as professional advisers. The Legal 500 is widely regarded as offering the definitive judgement of law firm capabilities. The publication is updated every year and relies on reports not just from solicitors firms themselves but also interviews with clients.
Ridley and Hall has been particularly recommended for it’s expertise in family law and trusts and probate. The family team headed up by partner Meena Kumari deals with divorce and financial issues as well as domestic violence and parents seeking contact with children. The firm also has a specialist child care team which includes award winning partners Nigel Priestley and Michael George.

Susan Cash who heads up the wills, trusts and probate team said “We’ve recently launched a service for those nearing or at retirement age called
‘elderflower’ (www.elderfloweradvice.co.uk) because we feel strongly that older clients need specialist advice.  Membership of the Legal 500 provides further assurance of our expertise to offer this service.”

Business Development Partner Adam Fletcher commented “ I’d like to thank our clients who were willing to recommend us; it’s their recognition that really means a lot. For a small firm in West Yorkshire this is quite an achievement!”
