Bendles Solicitors

Bendles Solicitors Beginning life as a family firm over 200 years ago we have always been committed to maintaining a Our size is our strength.

We are large enough to have a breadth of expertise across areas of law as diverse as commercial law and childcare. We are also small enough for every one of our clients to be very important to us. We have a respected position in the local legal marketplace and we are often chosen by other solicitors to work for them. Our clients choose us because we try harder.

Our trainee solicitor, Holly Cantley (pictured centre), took part in the Cumbria Junior Lawyers Legal Walk in Keswick at the weekend alongside Kate Sparkes-McSevich, Treasurer of Cumbria Junior Lawyers (left), and Kim Biott, who attended as the event's first aider (right) πŸ‘

The walk brings together legal professionals from across the county to raise funds for the Access to Justice Foundation, a charity dedicated to increasing access to free legal advice and representation for those who might otherwise struggle to get the support they need.

Holly said: "It was a fantastic day and great to see so many people from across the legal profession come together to support such an important cause, while taking in the beautiful scenery along the Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Path."

If you'd like to support the initiative, donations can still be made via the Access to Justice Foundation's Legal Walk fundraising pages.

In our latest Cumbria Crack article, Natalie Henderson, Private Client Solicitor at Bendles, explains why keeping your affairs under review is more important than ever.

With recent changes to Inheritance Tax, pensions and reliefs for farming and business-owning families, it's important to understand how evolving tax rules could affect your plans and the assets you hope to pass on.

While no one can predict what future changes may bring, taking advice now can help protect the people and assets that matter most.
