Two branches of a solicitors are closing as a new office opens and staff are re-located.

Martin Tolhurst Solicitors opened its new location at 4 Ambley Green in Gillingham Business Park on June 6.

The 6,000 square feet space has two floors and a number of meeting rooms. It also has on-site parking for clients.

The opening of the new branch means the existing location at Medway City Estate is closing and all staff currently based there will be relocating to the new office.

Any client appointments with lawyers previously based at the Medway offices will be at the new Gillingham office and any documents should be delivered to the Gillingham office.

The firm’s commercial department currently based in Gravesend is also relocating to the Gillingham office from today (Tuesday).

The Ashford and Sittingbourne branches are unaffected.

Managing direction Richard Carter said: “We are thrilled to announce the opening of our new office in Gillingham.

“This new office represents our commitment to expanding our reach and providing quality legal services to more clients in the area.

“We are committed to contributing to the local community and look forward to building long-lasting relationships with our clients and local businesses.”
