Hunter Legal Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2014 and recorded under SRA number 617971. The SRA record lists 2 practising offices: the head office at 2 Upper Northgate Street, Chester, CH1 4EE, plus 1 further office in London. It also trades as Hunter Lawyers. The register carries 2 previous names, most recently Griffiths Kingsley Limited. Its constitution is recorded as incorporated company (limited by shares).
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 5 areas of law: Family, Employment, Probate, Litigation and Corporate (non-listed). Residential property is not among the reported areas, so the firm does not appear in the conveyancing lists on this site's town and city pages.
The head office postcode CH1 4EE falls within Cheshire West and Chester (North West), where the SRA register lists 67 authorised firms with a practising office, 39 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Bevan Rose Corporate Solicitors Limited (100 m, Chester), HM Legal Services Limited (200 m, Chester), SM Solicitors (600 m, Chester), Kingsley Solicitors Limited (600 m, Chester) and DTM Legal LLP (600 m, Chester). 3 of those 5 report residential property work.
The SRA record carries no company registration number for this firm even though its constitution is recorded as incorporated company (limited by shares), so no Companies House record is cross-referenced.
