Major law firm expands into Morpeth with £30k investment

A successful law firm has launched its new and fourth office in one of the region’s most popular market towns.

O’Neill Richmonds, a firm which specialises in property law, Wills, Powers of Attorney and estate administration, has launched the operation on Bridge Street, Morpeth in response to demand for a traditional high street practice in the area.

Director Richard Twyford, who has over 12 years of experience in the industry, is running the Morpeth branch and has been joined by consultant solicitor Vernon Usher, as well as three other expert members of the team including Caroline Merifield and Helen Donaldson, whom have experience in residential conveyancing.

Richard said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to provide O’Neill Richmonds’ expert services to a thriving and growing town. We’ve capitalised on our vast local knowledge and experience of the local area and look forward to serving the local community.

“We have implemented state of the art technology in order to provide the highest standard of service to our clients.

“We specialise here in commercial, agricultural and residential property law, and additionally provide Wills, Powers of Attorney and estate administration. We are also developing a specialisation in education law.

“No matter what the legal issue may be, we offer a personal service to each of our clients including private individuals and businesses. This is where our approach of big practice knowledge with family firm accessibility comes into its own.”

The Morpeth office adds to established branches in Gosforth, South Shields and Benton.

Consultant solicitor Vernon Usher, who has lived in Morpeth for most of his life, has joined the firm following more than four decades in the industry as a specialist in residential conveyancing.

He will support Richard and the firm with his knowledge and experience.
