About Lancashire Law.
We originally established in 2004 and was previously known as DTP
Solicitors. We aim to
provide you with a professional and efficient service. We
are large enough to offer you a full range of expert legal
services but small enough to care about our clients and
provide a friendly individual service specific to each
client's needs. We understand how important it is that legal
matters are dealt with promptly and we aim to respond within
the working day to your telephone requests and have a 48
hour turn-around on incoming post.
