Principal Activity

Wrigleys Solicitors is a specialist legal practice operating throughout England and Wales, with a dedicated heritage railway team consisting of experts in charities and social economy organisations, property, employment and commercial contracts. They provide legal advice to heritage rail clients on a wide range of issues including: legal structures, governance, property, employment, outsourcing, mergers and collaborative working, data protection, compliance, fundraising and funding, operational issues, trading and contracts. From a property aspect they can advise on a wide range of matters including leasing, purchases and sales, development projects, secured borrowing and refinancing. Wrigleys employment lawyers provide a full range of employment services and advice for the sector including managing volunteers, both paid and unpaid; employment contracts; policies/handbooks; and equality, diversity and inclusion. Wrigleys also act for a number of train operating companies, dealing with their property portfolios and related contracts. This has enabled them to build a wealth of knowledge on the rail industry including the interaction between the purely commercial entities and the heritage rail sector, as well as giving them an appreciation of the issues affecting each. The lawyers at Wrigleys take a true interest in the sectors on which they advise. Most of the lawyers are themselves trustees, volunteers and/or governors giving them first-hand, practical experience of many issues facing clients. They value and invest in long-term relationships with clients, who trust them to give practical, technically excellent advice and pragmatic solutions to their issues. As one of the leading specialist practices outside London, Wrigleys has embraced the modern era while upholding the traditions and beliefs which have marked the firm out as distinct from its peers in a crowded legal market.
