Hopkins Solicitors expands their legal support into Derbyshire

This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in the growth and expansion of Hopkins Solicitors Ltd's footprint into Derbyshire’s legal community. By joining forces with Miles & Cash, Hopkins Solicitors Ltd strengthens its position as a provider of legal services, offering an expanded range of expertise and resources to Heanor’s local residents and small businesses.

Miles & Cash’s Managing Partner, Chris Sedgwick, said, “Our search for a law firm to transform the business was easy, having known a number of the Hopkins staff personally, we knew they held the same values and high levels of quality service. In addition, we knew that during their previous acquisitions of other local law firms they ensured that existing clients knew that the business was still there to support them, and that the employees felt secure and supported on their future career growth.”

"We are excited about the opportunities that this acquisition presents for our clients and our team," said Chris. "Joining Hopkins Solicitors Ltd allows us to continue providing the highest level of service to our clients while offering expanded resources and expertise across a wider spectrum of legal areas. We look forward to a seamless integration and continued success as part of the Hopkins Solicitors family."

Miles & Cash Solicitors has built a solid reputation for its expertise in Children and Care Law, serving a diverse client base with integrity and professionalism. This team including solicitors Chris Sedgwick (Partner) and Lucy Fisher (Associate) have stayed onboard further expanding Hopkins already extensive and reputable Children Law and Care Team.

Martyn Knox, Managing Director of Hopkins Solicitors said, “We look forward to getting to know and support the members of Heanor’s local community, both as clients and as future employees. We believe that our local expertise and our honest commitment to high standards is what allows us to provide a personal approach to our clients, and truly make a difference in improving peoples’ lives.”

In March 2024 interior and exterior renovations began on the existing Miles & Cash office which is located in Heanor’s town centre just north of Derby, between Ripley and Ilkeston.

Once complete, the office will be expanding and housing at least 8 solicitors offering a full range of legal support services including private family law, children & care law, residential conveyancing, wills & probate, civil litigation, personal injury & medical negligence, employment law, company commercial and commercial property law.

The acquisition of Miles & Cash Solicitors underscores Hopkins Solicitors Ltd's commitment to growth, innovation, and delivering exceptional results for its clients.
