We are proud to be ranked in the Chambers and Partners UK Guide once again for 2026.

Our Criminal Law team has now been recognised by Chambers UK for the third year running, and we remain the only law firm in North Wales to be ranked for Criminal Law. Chambers describes our team as having “defence experience across the gamut of general and serious crime”, representing clients from the police station through to the Crown Court.

This achievement reflects the quality of work our team delivers and the trust we’ve built with clients and peers across the legal sector.

Dafydd Roberts, Director and Head of Crime, said: “Being ranked by Chambers and Partners for the third year running is a real credit to the whole team. Chambers’ research is independent and based on what clients and other lawyers say about you, so it means a great deal. It reflects the hard work of every solicitor and member of support staff in the department, from the first call at the police station through to the Crown Court.”

Our criminal team acts for clients across North Wales from our offices in Rhyl, Wrexham, Denbigh, Ruthin, Holywell, Mold and Abergele, on both legal aid and privately funded cases.

Congratulations to everyone involved.

Pension scams can be difficult to spot, particularly when an offer appears to come from a professional or legitimate-looking company.

Warning signs can include unexpected contact about your pension, promises of guaranteed or unusually high returns, high-pressure sales tactics, unusual investments and offers of a “free” pension review.

Our latest article looks at some of the common warning signs of pension scams, what to check before transferring your pension and what to do if you think you may have been targeted.

What does an executor actually have to do?

Being named as an executor in someone's Will can come with a number of responsibilities, and it is not always clear where to start.

An executor is responsible for dealing with the administration of the estate, which can include registering the death, identifying and valuing assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing what is left to the beneficiaries.

The process can vary depending on the circumstances of the estate, and there may be additional steps where property, Inheritance Tax or other complications are involved.

Our Wills, Probate & Inheritance Tax team can guide executors through the process and advise on their responsibilities.

A serious road collision can change your life in seconds, but the legal and practical consequences can continue for months afterwards.

There may be police investigations, insurance enquiries and potentially criminal proceedings, alongside a separate personal injury claim. For those who have been seriously injured, rehabilitation and keeping track of medical treatment, expenses and the impact on day-to-day life can also become important parts of the process.

Our latest article looks at what can happen in the months following a serious road collision, from the early stages of gathering evidence through to rehabilitation and the progression of a personal injury claim.

What happens to your wishes if you don't make a Will?

A Will gives you the opportunity to set out what you want to happen to your money, property and possessions after you die.

Without one, your estate will usually be distributed according to the rules of intestacy. This may mean that the people you would have chosen to inherit from you don't receive what you intended them to.

Making a Will can also allow you to name the people you would like to deal with your estate and, where relevant, set out arrangements for children or other dependants.

Our Wills, Probate & Inheritance Tax team can help you understand your options: https://bit.ly/49BWHtj

Moving abroad with a child after separation can raise difficult questions for both parents.

A permanent move overseas cannot usually be made unilaterally. Depending on the circumstances, you may need the other parent's consent or permission from the family court, and there are important legal considerations around parental responsibility, child arrangements and maintaining contact.

Our latest article looks at what separated parents need to know when one parent is considering moving abroad with a child, including the process for reaching agreement and what happens if the matter needs to go to court.

Family Mediation vs Court Proceedings: Costs, Speed, and Outcomes

When a relationship ends and there are children or finances to sort out, deciding how to resolve those issues can feel daunting. In England and Wales, family mediation and court proceedings offer two different routes.

Mediation gives separating couples the opportunity to work through issues with the help of an independent mediator and reach their own agreement, while court proceedings involve a judge making a decision.

Our latest article looks at the key differences between mediation and court proceedings, including the costs, timescales and potential outcomes, and explains when each option may be appropriate.

Buying or selling a property? What happens after an offer is accepted?

Having your offer accepted is an important milestone, but there is still plenty to do before you can pick up the keys.

Your conveyancer will begin working through the legal side of the transaction, which can include reviewing the title to the property, carrying out searches, raising enquiries and working with your mortgage lender where relevant.

You'll also need to agree the details of the transaction with the other side before contracts can be exchanged. In England and Wales, an accepted offer is not normally legally binding until exchange of contracts, so there can still be changes or issues to resolve during this stage. Once contracts have been exchanged, the transaction becomes legally binding and the parties work towards the agreed completion date.

The conveyancing process can involve a lot of moving parts, particularly where there is a chain or an issue with the property that needs to be resolved. Having an experienced conveyancer guiding you through each stage can help keep things moving and make sure you understand what is happening.

If you're buying or selling a property, our Conveyancing team can help you through the process from offer to completion: https://gamlins.com/private/property-residential/
