Our history

What's in a name?

When Mr. Wright and Mr. Hassall renamed the firm Wright & Hassall in 1875 they couldn’t have foreseen the linguistic evolution that would ensure the name of the firm would be etched in posterity! But when you are a firm of solicitors called Wright Hassall, you need to be confident that the quality of the service that you provide is second to none. And we are.

Over 160 years advising businesses and individuals

1846 - The sole practice of Mr Richard Arthur Wallington was founded.

1875 - After the death of Mr Richard Wallington, Mr Wright took a Mr James Wright Hassall into partnership, which was renamed Wright & Hassall. 

1950s - the firm formed a syndicate with a local agent, John Staite, to buy most of the land being sold by the Earl of Warwick with the purpose of selling farms and properties to their tenants. Our connections with the land remain as strong as ever.

2003 - awarded the double accolade of both Lexcel and IIP, an achievement in which only a handful of firms have succeeded.

2007 - after several moves within the town centre, the firm moved to a landmark modern building on the outskirts of Leamington Spa, approximately two miles from junction 13 of the M40.

2011 – retained Lexcel and IIP once again following annual audit.
