Solicitors in Berkshire
Berkshire is situated in the south of England, with the main county town of Berkshire being Reading. Other larger towns in Berkshire include Bracknell, Maidenhead, Slough and Windsor, and it is famous as the county containing Windsor Castle and the Royal Ascot race meetings. Berkshire is a very popular residential area and rental property can easily be found with letting agents serving all of the areas of the county. With the increase of rental and freehold property comes an increase in the number of solicitors in Berkshire providing conveyancing and other legal services, including:
- family law services
- employment law advice
- corporate and commercial legal services
- wills and probate
- commercial litigation
Berkshire is a large county and solicitors in Berkshire have the choice of filing their work in any of the courts in their region: this usually being the court closest to either the claimant or the defendant. The courts in Reading are probably the busiest in the area and probably explains why there are three in the area: Reading Crown Court at Old Shire Hall, The Forbury, Reading, Berkshire, RG1 3EH and Reading Magistrates’ Court at Civic Centre, Reading, Berkshire, RG1 7TQ which deal largely with criminal matters, and Reading County Court which deals with civil and family matters along with housing the District Registry and can be found at 160-163 Friar Street, Reading, Berkshire, RG1 1HE.
Due to its size Berkshire has many Citizens Advice Bureaus (CABs) which offer legal advice to everyone. They concentrate specifically on helping those who require legal aid. Berkshire’s main CAB can be found at 16 Bartholomew St, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 5LL. The CAB is usually no substitute for professional legal advice and Contact Law can put you in touch with the right solicitors in Berkshire to help you in your endeavours.
