Cartmell Shepherd Solicitors will move into a new office in Cockermouth this week as part of the firm’s continued expansion.
Staff based at its current West Cumbrian office in Dovenby will transfer to the new base, which is in an historic building on Main Street, close to Cocker Bridge and Market Place.
Claire Wilson, who is an associate solicitor with Cartmell Shepherd based in West Cumbria, said the move would strengthen the legal firm’s presence in the area and bring the team even closer to the community it serves.
She said: “The new office is a fantastic signal to the local community that we’re committed to the local area. Being in the centre of Cockermouth will mean we are more accessible for our clients and it will also enable us to get even more involved with town initiatives which support local businesses. We’re really excited about moving to Cockermouth and can’t wait to be based there.”
