Brooke Taylors Solicitors

Brooke-Taylors Solicitors has been an integral part of Buxton's business community for over 150 years. We have successfully combined the local knowledge and friendly, efficient service of a traditional firm with the latest developments in legal practice and the use of modern information technology.

Our practice is built on the principle of putting our clients first, ensuring they feel at ease throughout their legal journey. Our staff are experienced, friendly, and caring, with the majority being Dementia Friends. We have a long history of acting for many families for generations and continue to attract new clients through recommendation.

We offer a first-rate legal service across four main departments: Family, Property, Private Client, and Litigation. Our services include Business Disputes & Litigation, Children Law, Civil Litigation, Commercial Property Transactions, Consumer problems, Employment Law, Family Law, House Purchase & Sales, Neighbour Disputes, Wills & Probate, and more.

Our Expertise and Approach

Our solicitors are experienced specialists who provide clear, practical advice. We understand the importance of making our clients feel comfortable and supported throughout their legal experience. We explain our system of charging fees at the outset, with many transactions done for a fixed fee.

Principal Departments & Services

Our Private Client Department specializes in Probate, Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, and Court of Protection cases. Our Litigation Department covers employment matters, property and/or rights of way, building disputes, contested wills, and estates. The Family Department deals with all aspects of legal work that arise not only when relationships break down but also when they develop and might require a more formal footing. Our Property Department acts for buyers and sellers of freehold and leasehold land and landlords and tenants, providing other property-related services including remortgage work, auction advice, and first registration of land.

We also offer Lasting Power of Attorney services, helping you choose trusted people to make decisions on your behalf. Furthermore, we assist with making or updating a will, ensuring your wishes are documented and kept up to date as your circumstances in life change.

Obligation-Free Initial Meeting

If you would like advice on any legal matter, please contact us. In many cases, we will be able to offer you a free of charge initial 15-minute meeting. This is an opportunity for you to discuss your legal needs with one of our experienced solicitors and gain a better understanding of how we can assist you.

Opening Times and Honours in the Local Community

We are open from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, you may wish to arrange an appointment outside of these hours.
