We pride ourselves on delivering comprehensive, practical legal advice. A well-respected and dependable law firm, we have earned a reputation in the Newport and Monmouth areas for our sound advice and down-to-earth approach.
If you have a legal issue, whether business-related or personal, we will do our best to find the solution that is right for you.
As a long-established Newport firm, we can trace our roots back to the early 1900s. In 1963 the firms of Liscombe & Dawson and H. Meyrick Williams both merged to form Jacklyn Dawson & Meyrick Williams. and moved to our current offices at Equity Chambers in the centre of Newport.
Since then, we have incorporated a number of local practices into the business, including Richard Davies & Co in the year 2000, Llewellin & Co in 2002 and Monmouth solicitors Kenneth Hurley & Co in 2004. As a result, we now have offices in both Newport and Monmouth.
We are a knowledgeable, friendly team, made up of six partners, twelve solicitors and approximately twenty support staff. This means that we are big enough to provide specialist legal advice, without being so large that we lose our personal approach.
From businesses large and small to individuals from all walks of life, we will always be here to provide help, support and a friendly face whenever we are needed.
Our partners, solicitors and advisors are amongst the most experienced legal professionals in England and Wales.
