Vincents Solicitors is to open a new office in Lytham to accommodate its growing team, which includes five senior appointments across its private client, residential property, and family law departments.

Vincents will open a new base at 21-23 Park Street, formerly the home of Linder Myers Solicitors in the town.

Joining the team are David Hinchliffe and STEP qualified lawyer Patricia Prescott, who have been appointed senior solicitors in the Private Client department. The pair will support individuals and families with wills, probate, trusts, estates, and Lasting Powers of Attorney.

David Hinchliffe is also expert in private residential law and, together with recently appointed and highly experienced senior conveyancer Callum Dudley and his assistant Rhian Cumming, will provide homebuying services for local community.

Family Law expert Sarah McCarthy is a  and STEP-qualified former secretary of Resolution and Secretary for the Lancashire and Cumbria Resolution committee. She will also extend provision for divorce, relationship, inheritance and estate administration cases.

The five new starters all previously worked at Linder Myers Solicitors in Lytham and have been offered roles with Vincents as part of the firm’s strategic growth plan for the Fylde coast.

The company will also retain its current premises at 25 Park Street in Lytham, which will remain home to Mary E Lowe @ Vincents Solicitors, the boutique family law and private client team servicing high net worth individuals which was created last year following the appointment of Mary Lowe to the Vincents board. Vincents’ also has a 13-strong commercial and residential property team based at Jubilee House in Lytham.

Over the last three years, the firm's headcount along  the Fylde coast has increased from six to 39 and new offices opened in Lytham and Poulton.

Phillip Gilmore, Vincents Solicitors managing director, said: “I would like to welcome our new starters, all of whom join us from Linder Myers Solicitors. To accommodate the increase in staff we have secured new premises in Park Street, which is the former Linder Myers office in Lytham.

“Their arrival supports our strategic growth plan and allows Vincents to become one of the largest full-service law firms supporting private individuals, families, and business clients on the Fylde coast.

“Each of these appointments has been made on an individual basis and we must be clear that Vincents Solicitors has not acquired Linder Myers Solicitors or any part of that business. While we are not a ‘successor practice’ to Linder Myers, we are pleased to have been able to recruit all of their senior solicitors following the closure of their former office in Lytham.”
