A FAMILY law firm is extending its practice with the opening of new offices in Alderley Edge.

McAlister Family Law, currently based in Manchester City Centre, have opened their new premises in West Street, Alderley Edge, in response to the overwhelming demand from Cheshire residents for access to quality family law advice without the need to travel into the city.

Led by Amanda McAlister, the firm has a national and international reputation for its work in child and family law.

Amanda said: “We chose this highly desirable location in order to bolster further our presence in the region.

“We want to be part of the Cheshire community, so we purposefully chose to open our doors in Alderley Edge as the village is well known and is very much seen as the ‘nucleus’ of the county.

“We wanted to avoid being on a featureless business park and instead want to offer a service where our doors are always open for anyone to drop in and see us.”

McAlister has represented everyone from top restaurateurs, premiership footballers and actresses, to members of the police force, teachers and civil servants. Amanda is the only family lawyer in Cheshire who holds the status of ‘eminent practitioner’.

Amanda added: “We bring intelligence, warmth and clear-sightedness to every case and are dedicated to delivering a service that vastly exceeds our clients’ expectations.”

Charlotte Percy and Jake Lawrence Brown are currently working from the Alderley Edge office and will shortly be joined by two new recruits. McAlister Family Law is part of Beyond Professional Services Group.
