An historic South West law firm has opened a new office in Liskeard in Cornwall.
Coodes Solicitors was established in 1747, operating across Devon and Cornwall, and now has eight offices in the region including its headquarters in Truro.
The business has moved to The Workshed, part of the town’s redeveloped Cattle Market. It was previously based at Windsor Place.
Peter Lamble, chair and partner at Coodes Solicitors, said the move to The Workshed was “an important milestone” for the law firm.
“[It is] part of our wider commitment to maintaining our network of offices serving the communities of Cornwall and Devon,” he said.
“It is an investment which demonstrates our support for the people and businesses of Liskeard and we look forward to continuing to play our part in the success of the town as a thriving hub for the community in South East Cornwall.”
The Liskeard office of Coodes was opened in 1987, following the acquisition of a small local practice. It has grown to become the largest firm in the town and since April 2023, has expanded its team by nearly 15%, it said.
Last year, Coodes scooped a number of awards including the Personal Injury Awards, the Devon and Somerset Law Society Awards and the Cornwall Law Society Awards. It was also recognised in the Legal 500 and the Chambers and Partners Guide 2025.
The business is now inviting members of the community to visit the new offices on Fairpark Road.
