Battens Solicitors expand services in Ilminster

Leading South West law firm Battens Solicitors is increasing the availability of FREE advice at its Drop-In Clinic within Ilminster due to popular demand.

The law firm currently occupies a space within the Ilminster Arts Centre and from the start of June 2025 this will increase to a full day, from 9:30am to 5pm, offering greater flexibility for those seeking legal advice without the need for an appointment.

Battens’ friendly legal professionals have been supporting local residents and businesses, face-to-face, with a wide range of legal services at the centrally-located Arts Centre.

Managing Director of Battens Solicitors, Ceri Stephens, commented: “We are delighted to be in Ilminster. The town is vibrant and full of activity. We have a growing client base within the local area.”

Ross Siviter, Associate Director and Solicitor within the Residential Conveyancing team said: “The town has really embraced the Battens services we offer and has welcomed us. The number of enquiries we have had so far is heartening and we love being able to support the local community and service for our clients in Chard, Crewkerne and the other areas local to Ilminster.”

The expansion also reflects Battens’ broader mission to provide community-focused legal services across the South West. Battens Solicitors has a network of 7 offices located across Somerset and Dorset, with over 160 employees, servicing clients regionally and throughout the UK and beyond.
