Lock & Marlborough was established in 1986 by Edward Lock and Simon Marlborough who continue to run the firm today. From a very small beginning the firm has now associate offices in Paris and Brussels and serves a number of international clients as well as continuing to service, as they have for over 25 years, the legal needs of local businesses and private clients.
Since their expansion in 2005, the firm has taken on additional Solicitors who specialise in different areas of the law to provide a high class quality service whilst retaining the personal touch. Our offices are conveniently close to Acton Town Tube Station which has links to Heathrow (22 minutes) and the West End (21 minutes) and we pride ourselves on the service we provide as well as our accessibility to clients.

Wills and Probate
Report
Research has shown that one third of the population has not made a Will. Most people assume that all their possessions pass automatically on their death to their Spouse, Partner or members of the family. This is not necessarily the case. Having a Will drawn up is the best way to ensure that your wishes and the arrangements that you wish to make for your Estate are carried out after your death.
