About

Watson Ramsbottom is a highly regarded legal practice with offices across the UK offering a full range of legal services to personal and commercial clients.

The practice was formed following the merger in 2003 between two long-established North-West legal practices, Watsons Solicitors of Darwen and Ramsbottom & Co. with offices in Blackburn, Darwen, Accrington and Great Harwood.

Subsequently Watson Ramsbottom acquired Carters Solicitors in Pontefract, Quinn and Co in Chorley and Steele & Son with Bagot Heyes, which has offices in Clitheroe and Barnoldswick.

All of these offices have been established in their respective areas for decades and have acted for generations of clients to provide solutions whatever the legal problem.

Since 2020, we have also added Watson Ramsbottom offices in Carlisle, Bristol and Lytham, and a second Carters office in Delph in Greater Manchester.

it's reputation, which extends far beyond it's Lancashire roots, is built upon an ability to combine the warm, personal touch of a High Street firm with the deep legal insight necessary to deliver comprehensive services.
