Two Skipton based law firms have joined together to expand their capabilities.
Savage Crangle, a respected Skipton based law firm, is to become part of one of Yorkshire’s leading legal service providers, following its acquisition by Ison Harrison.
The move brings Savage Crangle and Ison Harrison together under one roof.
Savage Crangle, specialises in conveyancing, family law, corporate and commercial property, litigation and wills and probate.
Partners Peter Crangle, John Eyre and Chris Storah lead a team of 23 staff between Savage Crangle’s Skipton and Otley offices.
Peter Crangle, founding partner at Savage Crangle, said
“We’ve been on a long and proud journey as Savage Crangle, serving our clients with dedication and professionalism for 46 years.
"Joining Ison Harrison allows us to continue that journey, but with fresh energy and expanded capabilities.
"It’s the right step for our clients and our team.”
The branch will continue to operate from Savage Crangle’s existing office on Skipton High Street, managed by Julie Smith of Ison Harrison.
Julie Smith commented:
“I am proud to be leading this exciting new chapter.
"Savage Crangle and Ison Harrison share a commitment to client care, specialist expertise and local values.
"Together we can offer a more diverse range of services to the people of Skipton.”
The move follows Ison Harrison’s acquisition of Armstrong Luty in Skipton earlier this spring.
That integration has already strengthened the firm’s position in the Craven district and provided new opportunities to support local clients with an expanded legal team.
Jonathan Wearing, managing director of Ison Harrison, added:
“Our goal has always been to deliver accessible, expert legal support in the heart of local communities.
"Bringing Savage Crangle into the Ison Harrison family not only expands our geographical footprint but also enriches our offering with their highly respected team.
"With Armstrong Luty already part of our journey, we’re building something really special in Skipton.”
Both firms will work closely to ensure a seamless transition for clients and staff.
Since transitioning to employee ownership, the firm has almost doubled its turnover, opened seven new offices and made individual profit distributions to employees totaling over £11,500 each.
