Hibberts LLP, with two offices in Nantwich, celebrated its 225th anniversary in style at a birthday party at Iscoyd Park in Whitchurch.
The journey of Hibberts began in 1799, when a Mr. Finchett was recorded in the London Gazette as a solicitor.
In 1820, his son James Finchett-Maddock, went on to be the clerk of Chester and in 1871 the firm (then called Maddock, Moss Sharp & Martin) moved into Nantwich.
The offices at 1 Pillory Street occupy the top floors of the present building, constructed in 1911.
Its design was by local architect E.H. Edleston of Bower & Edleston, at Nantwich firm of architects, founded in 1854 by Thomas Bower.
Hibberts has a second office in Nantwich on Barker Street.
Through a succession of solicitors and a series of mergers and moves in 2007, the current Hibberts LLP emerged.
HR manager, Rachael Hodgkins, told Nub News: "We could think of no better place to hold our event than Iscoyd Park which was decked in Hibberts branding for the occasion.
"This magnificent venue has been in the Godsal family since 1843, almost as long as Hibberts has been trading.
"The hospitality was wonderful as we enjoyed a sun-filled drinks reception, hog roast, live music and dancing at this beautiful country house."
Hibberts continues the rich tradition of providing personal and practical legal advice to clients through offices in Nantwich, Crewe, Tarporley and Whitchurch.
Managing partner at Hibberts, Stewart Bailey, told Nub News: "I am so proud to be part of Hibberts at the time when we celebrate 225 years of serving our community with dedication and integrity.
"During our celebrations we have reflected on our past, recognising and applauding the invaluable contributions employees past and present have made to allow the firm to thrive for over 200 years. What an achievement.
"The Hibberts journey has been one of continuous growth and adaptation.
"We remain committed to upholding the principle of focusing on evolving customer needs that has defined us for over two centuries, innovating and expanding our service offering whilst maintaining a blend of traditional values, personal service and modern expertise.
"Here's to the next 225 years of success."
