About Us

We are a leading firm in North Wales and Cheshire providing clients locally and nationally with expert, friendly and specialist advice on a range of legal issues.

We are independent and act in the best interests of our Clients. We would like to thank our loyal Clients and everyone who has recommended us to a relative, friend or work colleague. Many organisations try and refer you to their own Solicitor often receiving commission or a referral fee. We at Allington Hughes are extremely proud that we rely upon our reputation and integrity and do not enter into any financial referral arrangements with any introducer to the firm.

We are listed in the “Legal 500” independent research book as one of the top 500 providers of specialist legal advice.

At Allington Hughes we are very proud of our historical roots. The firm began back in 1826 when Thomas Hughes set up business as a Solicitor in Wrexham. After many years, the firm became known as Allington Hughes and Bate and in 1986 Allington Hughes and Bate merged with David Hughes and Co, a company which had been set up in Chester back in 1912. The combined practice became known as Allington Hughes, a convenient and continued recognition of the two former names. The firm has continued to grow and in 2010, Allington Hughes merged with David Spalding Solicitor. In 2011 the firm became a Legal Disciplinary Practice by appointing Alison Stace, a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives, as a Partner. Alison is the first non-solicitor lawyer to become a Partner of Allington Hughes.

Our reputation has evolved over more than 180 years due to our commitment to ensuring that the legal advice we provide to our Clients is specialist, efficient, practical and reasonably priced.

Allington Hughes is proud of its succession planning which will ensure the longevity of the firm. The firm has eleven Partners and more than fifty staff members across two offices in North Wales and Cheshire. We will continue into the future with the firm’s long standing ethos which nurtures home grown talent whilst at the same time gradually introduces new blood to ensure our advisers are the leading advisers in their specialist fields.

We are also proud of our numerous accreditation scheme memberships. Accreditation scheme membership is indicated by a green tick logo. It means that a member of the firm has demonstrated special competence in their particular area of law.
