Description:
Beviss & Beckingsale is a traditional long-established yet progressive firm of solicitors with four offices based in East Devon and South Somerset but serving clients across the country.

We provide a wide range of specialised quality services for both private and business clients. Priding ourselves on the personal service we give to our clients the partners do not subscribe to the principle that 'big is beautiful'. We want our clients to feel welcome and confident that their legal affairs will be dealt with in a thoroughly businesslike, competent and prompt manner.

We believe that for our clients to receive the best advice, we need to employ the best lawyers and support staff, backed up by the latest information technology. Our recruitment programme and in-house training ensure that all our staff appreciate the importance of building close working relationships with clients, providing cost effective, timely and practical advice and of understanding our clients' individual businesses and objectives. This is how we achieve the results that our clients expect.

We pride ourselves on the personal service we give to clients. As more and more commercial organisations depart from that ethos we consider it to be increasingly important.

We can help with the following areas of law:-

Moving House

Buying and selling your home represents the most important type of transaction (and the most expensive!) that you are likely to undertake in your life.

Furthermore, where you choose to live has a profound effect on your lifestyle, whilst for some it also represents an investment opportunity.

This makes it extremely important to entrust your purchase or sale to an independent firm of solicitors who only have your interests at heart, who take care of all the legal processes, giving you a full explanation of all the law affecting you, the likely costs involved, and thereby smooth the process from beginning to end.

Wills Trust and Probate

We have a strong centralised department primarily based in our Chard office and they are able to assist with

• The creation and administration of estates & trusts
• Wills
• Tax planning
• Powers of attorney

Many of our clients ask us if it is necessary to make a Will. It is a sad fact that most people die without making a Will. For them, the law dictates how and to where their estates will be divided and this may lead to results which they would not have wished. It may also cause problems for dependents which are often costly and time consuming to resolve. The easy and quick solution is to make a will.

Family

We appreciate that the breakdown of family relationships can be painful and emotional. It is our aim to provide a family law service that is sympathetic and sensitive yet objective and positive. We have considerable experience and a thorough understanding of the approach that the Courts will take to the following issues:-

• Separation and divorce
• Children
• Finances
• Injunctions

We realise every case is different and requires specialists advice. You will receive a personal service tailored to your individual needs.

Country & Agricultural

We have a thorough knowledge of our own rural community and local property market and this together with our well respected expertise in farming and country property related matters means we are ideally placed to advise farming and land owning clients.

We are keen that not only do we have complete knowledge of the relevant law but have a thorough understanding of our clients' businesses-only then can the best advice be given to suit each individual client's needs. We know our patch.

Resolving disputes

Nobody wants to become involved in a dispute but when this does occur the importance of expert, solid legal advice can’t be over-emphasised. Our "litigation" team always explores available avenues to avoid expensive and often traumatic court proceedings. However, if this is required to protect your position, our team will pursue your interests vigorously.

Our litigation team are commercially aware lawyers who put careful thought and consideration into each matter with which they deal as a well argued and constructed case at the outset can often save time and expense later.

We can assist with the following:-

• Contractual disputes
• All landlord and tenant problems both residential and commercial
• Disputes over wills and inheritance claims
• Professional negligence claims
• Boundary and other property disputes
• Debt recovery
• Injunctions
• Co-ownership and trustee issues

Commercial

Any commercial enterprise requires expert legal advice whether in relation to its structure and internal organisation or in its relationships with customers, suppliers and Government and other official organisations.

Clients naturally assume that we know the law but we also place much emphasis and focus on our commercial experience, personal service, speed of response and desire to get the result that you want.

Our charging structure is explained at the outset, is transparent and updated throughout the matter. We can assist you with:-

• Buying and selling businesses
• Starting up businesses - whether sole traders, drafting partnership agreements or company formation
• Commercial property and leases
• Options
• Building developments
• Joint venture agreements
• Employment contracts
• Terms and conditions of trading
• Debt recovery
• Planning and environmental matters
• Offices
• Shops
• Industrial units and warehousing
