Christchurch Solicitors
We are a friendly team dedicated to delivering a first class, yet affordable, range of legal advice from Wills and Probate, Matrimonial, Family law, Bankruptcy and Employment law. We also offer pre-arranged face-to-face appointments for document certification, where we can verify a whole host of legal documents including affidavits, statutory declarations, providing certified copies of original documents and verifying ID.

We pride ourselves on delivering our services in an easy-to-digest manner rather than using complex legalese. We offer a warm welcome to all of our clients at our historic offices facing Christchurch Mansion, opposite the entrance to Christchurch Park in Ipswich. Likewise, for those who are unable to get in to see us we can offer at home appointments or phone / Skype / FaceTime / Zoom meetings - whatever they feel comfortable with.

The founder members of the firm, Clare Barlow and Julie Ferguson, first met in 2011 whilst undertaking voluntary work for the Ipswich Council for Racial Equality (IPSCRE), a charity for which they both felt passionately. A lifelong friendship was formed.

Clare's earlier background in senior management at the NHS doubled with Julie's experience working in City law firms in London meant these solicitors brought a dynamic energy to the brainchild of Christchurch Solicitors LLP which continues to this day.A combined wealth of legal and life experiences as mothers, solicitors, friends make this a very special partnership.

I found Christchurch Solicitors to be friendly, professional and trustworthy. Everything I needed was taken care of efficiently and without errors or delays; each stage was explained clearly and followed up well. It was all in sharp contrast to my experience at very large law firms, and I have no hesitation in recommending them.
