Marshall Hatchick was founded in London on 8 May 1995 by Nicholas Marshall and Keith Hatchick, both of whom had been partners with major city firms in London. Their objective was to offer quality specialist legal services in an approachable and practical manner in both business and commercial property. The partners’ aim was to develop a practice that was able to combine the experience and depth that one would expect of a larger establishment, with the personal and friendly approach of a smaller specialist firm.

In 1996 an office in Woodbridge Suffolk was opened which also provided residential conveyancing and private client work.

In 2001 Michael Sparrow (formerly the managing partner of Gotelee & Goldsmith in Ipswich) joined the firm as resident partner in Woodbridge, bringing a wealth of experience and connections in Ipswich and Suffolk generally.

Marshall Hatchick subsequently merged with Josselyns in 2005, further expanding its portfolio to include Private Client, Wills, Trusts and Probate work. Josselyns’ enviable reputation spanned over 150 years, offering personal high quality legal services throughout East Anglia.

The provision of such level of service remains the firm’s core commitment. The Partners work closely with their team of solicitors and staff to offer clients prompt, efficient and professional legal services.
