Harrison Drury merges with Chenery Maher

Harrison Drury has continued its expansion into the Ribble Valley by merging with Chenery Maher of Clitheroe.

The Preston-based law firm opened its first Clitheroe office in 2014 as a result of a merger with DLH Solicitors.

This most recent move takes its headcount to 19 in the town, including partners Irene Chenery and Carol Maher who will continue to work as consultants for the firm.

John Chesworth, executive chairman, said that Chenery Maher specialises in family law, estate planning, probate and property work and the the merger will enhance Harrison Drury's home and family service. "This move also gives us larger premises from which to continue developing our offering in the Ribble Valley and wider East Lancashire region," he said.
