Lincolnshire and East Midlands firm Chattertons Solicitors & Wealth Management has announced the acquisition of Double & Megson Solicitors - its tenth such deal in a decade. Last year the firm acquired Page Nelson and JGQC as part of an ambitious growth strategy.
Following the latest deal, Double & Megson’s offices at 11 Market Place, Market Deeping, and 4 West Street, Bourne, will continue to operate as usual under the Chattertons brand. No financial details were announced.
Richard Ludlow, Chattertons chief executive said: 'We are delighted to welcome Richard Wood, Shanta Shah and the wider Double & Megson team to Chattertons. Their longstanding local relationships and commitment to client care align perfectly with our values. Having offices in Bourne and Market Deeping was a natural geographical fit for us, taking account of our existing office locations. It further strengthens our regional presence and supports our ambition to be a leading provider of integrated legal, wealth management and tax services across the East Midlands.'
Double & Megson was founded in 1978. Current owners Richard Wood and Shanta Shah will join Chattertons as consultants. In a statement they said: 'Joining Chattertons allows us to build on our legacy while giving clients access to a wider range of expertise. The firm’s scale, resources and integrated approach create new opportunities for our team and additional services for the clients we serve.'
Chattertons, established in 1856, employs more than 230 legal and financial professionals across 10 offices. It provides a comprehensive range of legal, wealth management and tax advisory services, delivering first class, client focused and trusted advice to individuals and businesses from its offices in Boston, Bourne, Grantham, Horncastle, Lincoln, London, Newark, Sleaford, Spalding and Stamford.
