We originally established in 2008 and were previously known as Turner March Solicitors. We merged into Lancashire Law Limited and have since rebranded as Market Street Law Limited in 2024, with our Whitworth office trading as Rossendale Law. This makes it easier for clients to know that they are dealing with the Whitworth office specifically.
We aim to provide you with a professional and efficient service. We are large enough to offer you a full range of expert legal services but small enough to care about our clients and provide a friendly individual service specific to each client’s needs.
We understand how important it is that legal matters are dealt with promptly, and we aim to respond within 24 hours to your non-urgent telephone requests and have a 48-hour turnaround on incoming post.
