About us

Richard George founded the firm initially trading under his own name. He was later joined by H.L.D. Jenkins, forming Richard George & Jenkins.

After the passing of H.L.D. Jenkins in the mid-1970s, Glynne Jones took over the firm. In February 1979, Michael Davies joined the practice and became a partner in 1980, expanding the firm’s litigation department. Huw Evans also joined the firm shortly after, specialising in conveyancing matters. Huw Evans remained an integral part of the firm until his retirement in 2020.

During this period, the firm broadened its reach by acquiring Charles W. Bell and Co., a well-established sole practitioner firm in Welshpool, and briefly operated an office in Machynlleth. In the late 1980s, Geoff Landers joined as a partner and took responsibility for managing the Welshpool office.

Sian Davies joined the firm, Michael Davies became Senior Partner, and Nicholas Jones began his training contract, qualifying as a solicitor and remaining with the firm after completing his training.

The firm underwent restructuring. Geoff Landers left the partnership, and Michael Davies and Huw Evans continued as partners in Newtown. Geoff Landers became a sole practitioner at the Welshpool office.

Geoff Landers returned to the firm at the end of 2001, taking over Nicholas Jones’ role. In 2005, John Hollis joined as a consultant, handling non-contentious probate and conveyancing work after Sian Davies’ departure.

John Hollis retired in 2010 and was succeeded by Carol Bryan, who continued as a consultant until 2015. In 2012, Jonathan Crosskey joined the firm as a solicitor, focusing on probate, conveyancing and general litigation, particularly family matters.

Matthew Davies began his training contract after working on an ad-hoc basis as a Police Station Representative.

A significant milestone came with the opening of a new office in Llanidloes, where Christopher Davies joined as branch head.

Matthew Davies was admitted as a solicitor.
