Services
The practice has been established in Buxton for over 150 years. Until 2010 the practice traded as a partnership but since that time we have traded as a limited company. We are well regarded and aim to provide a friendly, fair and expert service. Much of our work is either for existing clients or by recommendation from existing clients.
We strongly advise every adult to make a will and to review it should their circumstances change. We would both like to thank you for your hard work, kindness and compassion whilst dealing with our mother's estate. At times it was very difficult for us both and we appreciate all you did to alleviate some of the problems.
We cover all aspects of legal work which arise not only when relationships break down but also when they develop and might require a more formal footing such as in the form of a cohabitation or a pre-nuptial agreement.
Our expertise includes marriage and civil partnership dissolution, arrangements for how children spend their time living in separate households, financial arrangements between separating couples (married, civil partnership or unmarried) for themselves and for children and personal protection orders and injunctions.

An LPA is a legal document that lets you choose trusted people (attorneys) to make decisions on your behalf. You can choose whether your attorneys can act for you as soon as the LPA is registered or only if you can no longer understand and make decisions. You can also appoint different attorneys for your personal finances and your business affairs if this is relevant.
We pride ourselves in offering a one to one service throughout your property transaction, whether it be a sale, purchase of either freehold or leasehold property or a re-mortgage. We will cover all aspects of the buying and selling process and keep you informed throughout the procedure. We can prepare pre-auction packs and provide auction advice.

Horrible service.
If you want your projects to run at a snail's pace then this company is right for you. It's also too much to ask to get a breakdown of costs and to make things even better when Brooke-Taylors Solicitors was removed from the project they failed to cooperate with the new solicitors on many occasions claiming that documentation had been sent when it hadn't.
Having to get the Legal Ombudsman involved.

When I went into Brooke-Taylors to discuss my will and some other matters I met with Amy Holliday one of the solicitors. She was very helpful and guided me through the process efficiently and professionally. I have to put my house on the market in the new future and will have Brooke-Taylors to help me again.
