New Banbury Office Opening

After 37 years at The Old Vicarage on Horsefair, long-established Banbury law firm, Hancocks Solicitors (Hancocks), has moved up the road to 46 The Green, South Bar Street, Banbury, Oxon OX16 9AB (01295 253211 partners@hancocks-legal.co.uk www.hancocks-legal.co.uk).

Commenting on the move, Hancocks’ commercial property partner, Andrew Hardcastle, said:

“While we’re sorry to say goodbye to The Old Vicarage, the move marks an important step in our plans for growth, following our acquisition of Cotswold Family Law in Brailes last year. It’s a significant milestone towards our projected expansion which will help us to offer a broader range of legal services to both current and new clients.”

Senior partner Michael Barlow commented:

“Having recently taken on Eddie Reeves as a solicitor in our conveyancing and private client departments, we’re delighted to be growing our team of dedicated, qualified staff alongside our associate Toni Peppard who has been with us for almost 18 years. Family law partner Ian Davies’ return to Banbury from the firm’s Brailes office sees Andrew moving the other way in a bid to grow our rural and agricultural property practices.”
