Switalski’s Solicitors commenced practice in Wakefield in 1995. The objective was the establishment of a niche legal practice specialising in Criminal and Child Care Law. The firm now has six branches across West Yorkshire, and employs specialist solicitors in ten different areas of law. The practice currently has six partners, and employs around one hundred and twenty-five staff, including around fifty associate solicitors, and an ancillary staff team of more than sixty people.

The firm specialises in publicly funded work in the following areas of law: Criminal Litigation, Family and Child Care Law, Mental Health Law, Community Care Law, Immigration and Asylum Law, Prison Law, Public Law and Welfare Benefits. The firm has Category 1 status in all these areas of work following internal audit of the firm’s procedures by the Legal Services Commission, the government body responsible for the funding and supervision of all publicly funded legal work.
 
In addition to our publicly funded work, we also offer Private Client Services in the areas of Probate, Wills, Powers of Attorney, Trusts, and Court of Protection.
