The firm has moved into offices at 1 Townsend Place in Kirkcaldy to develop its presence in Fife, especially for private client legal services.

Managing director Peter Boyd said: “Fundamentally we aim to deliver personal service and affordable fees – and to be centrally located in Fife where people can find us or we can get easily to them. One of our commitments is to be mobile and to offer home visits as a standard service.”

The office, which will be officially launched in a charity fundraising event on March 1, is to offer clients a free will review service to celebrate its opening.

The Kirkcaldy team will also be augmented with the appointment of corporate/commercial solicitor Kelly Matthews, who previously held posts at Russel & Aitken in Falkirk and before that Thorntons and Blackadders.
