Newtons Solicitors Limited

Since incorporation in 2009 Newtons has developed a model based upon local delivery of legal services in market towns and cities in Yorkshire, Teesside and into County Durham. The business is a full service law firm with strength and breadth in both private client and company commercial services. The firm is owned by an entrepreneurial family and their approach to our business that has resulted in its phenomenal growth is positively reflected in our delivery of legal services for the benefit of our clients. The firm is led by a Board of Directors with other senior leadership figures who head teams and offices in their own right. The firm employs a significant number of senior solicitors and the high quality of legal services is determined by their relative experience and also the fact that the firm is in a position to pay reasonably good market salaries to its team, meaning that the overall quality from the client perspective is maintained. Each staff member has a training budget in order to improve their skills. The firm regularly invests in specific educational activities such as applications to join the Society of Trust and Estate Planning. In addition, the firm has subscribed to the Riliance platform which enables all of the staff members in the various offices to view webinars and online training which is a very efficient and effective way of disseminating training information to our team. The firm is very active in respect of its corporate social responsibility and regularly takes part in initiatives for example a 5 km fun run at Ripon on a Saturday was attended by over 40 staff members in the firm. In addition, the firm regularly holds dress down days and captures the contributions by just giving sites to give to nominated charities. Our medium term goal is to become a top 200 law firm, something that we believe that we will achieve within the next 5 years.
