Claphams Solicitors are proud to celebrate our 35th anniversary today. Our firm was founded as David C. Clapham Solicitors on 20th February 1984. Originally based on Bath Street in Glasgow, the firm was founded as a primarily court based agency practice. 

Claphams Solicitors are proud to partner with Cancer Research UK as one of their official will writers. In the UK, 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Thanks to the efforts of organisations such as Cancer Research UK, survival rates have doubled since the 1970s and more people now beat breast cancer than ever before. The will writing service at Claphams solicitors has so far raised £97,000 to help fund the research of over 4,000 scientists, doctors and nurses who dedicate their lives to treating and curing this disease.

For many homeowners, the idea of selling a property can be incredibly daunting and stressful. Luckily, the estate agents at Slater Hogg and Howison have created a checklist of handy hints to simplify the entire process, ensuring you get best deal possible and are able to move on and secure your dream home.

As the holiday approaches we would like to take this opportunity to inform valued clients and potential new customers of our Christmas opening hours - we will be closed from Friday 21st December and open on Thursday 3rd January.

Writing a will is not always just about who you want to leave your estate to, but also who you wish to cut out. Being clear in your will about who is entitled to what assets will reduce the chances that your wishes will be disputed.
