Building on Montpellier’s track record of serving a spectrum of clients in the professional services sector, the consultancy is providing PR support to law firm Midwinters. The brief includes developing the law firm’s profile across a number of charity initiatives including an international sponsorship in its countdown to celebrate Midwinters’ centenary year. In tandem, Montpellier has provided the Cheltenham-based legal specialists with a new brand, website and corporate identity, in addition to ongoing initiatives and support for local events, in celebration of its enduring success and service to local and regional clients over the century.

The firm, which has three partners and employs 16 staff at its town centre Regency-period offices was founded in 1916 by Mr Harry Midwinter. He continued in practice for many years, spanning WWI and WWII through to his retirement in 1946. Other partners subsequently joined the firm which became well established and a household name in Cheltenham.

Today Midwinters, www.midwinters.co.uk , is a private law firm providing legal services to individuals and businesses, with specialisms including probate and private client, personal accident, conveyancing and family as well as commercial property.

Senior partner Alexis Cassin explains: “We are immensely proud of our heritage and service to the people and businesses of Cheltenham and Gloucestershire at large, spanning a century. In some cases clients are descendants of families and local businesses from the firm’s first days.”
