We are holding general legal surgeries at our Sheringham office every Friday from 2:00pm until 5:00pm for 20 minutes free advice with expert solicitors on the subjects of family, separation, children, disputes and any other general legal matters.

This is a "drop in" free surgery but for convenience please call 01263 823398.  If you set out in advance the nature of your enquiry we will do our best to make sure that the appropriate advisor is available to assist.

Clapham & Collinge in partnership with Smith & Pinching  run a very successful dining club for local businesses.  The aim of the club is to bring business people  together in an informal and relaxed environment in order to promote friendship and connections.

If you are a business who is enthusiastic about networking in a positive way and would like to attend one of our evenings please contact Heather Cook on 01603 693579 or email  hc@clapham-collinge.co.uk

Clapham & Collinge are proud to announce that we will be sponsoring Norwich's first ever Wine Festival in September.

Running alongside the Norfolk Food Festival from September 1^st to October 3^rd, the Wine Festival will involve local bars and restaurants who take a particular interest in wine. Wine lovers will be able to buy a sheet of vouchers giving them delicious wines at a discount across the festival month – as well as an information book with tasting notes and information about the venues and wines involved.

“There are so many venues with great wine lists in Norwich,” says wine merchant Emily Barclay of The Perfect Wine. “This festival is all about getting people to try new wines in new venues – enough of the standard Pinot Grigios and Merlots, it’s time to branch out!”

The venues involved are in the City Centre and Golden Triangle areas. Some are restaurants, where vouchers can pay for the wine you have with your meal, while others are bars with particularly interesting wine lists.

The venues range from well established wineries such as the Last Wine Bar, the Playhouse Bar and the Lawyer, to newcomers such as The Bicycle Shop on St Benedict’s Street and well-loved restaurants such as Pinocchio’s and The Library. The Unthank Arms and The Garden House pubs will be taking part in the Golden Triangle.

The newest of Norwich’s festivals is organised by three Norwich businesses working together – The Perfect Wine, Little Bird Web Services and Fountain Partnership.

Rebecca Lewis Smith of Fountain Partnership says: “The festival is running alongside the Norfolk Food Festival, and we hope it will be a chance for people to explore the wine-loving bars and restaurants of Norwich.”

“We’re absolutely delighted to be supporting this wonderful new initiative,” says Tammy Parnell, Partner at Clapham & Collinge. “It’s a pleasure to be part of bringing people together to learn about and enjoy good wine. We’ll be hosting the launch of the festival, and are certain to get involved in other ways throughout the month as well.” 

The event is also being supported by local businesses Farnell Clarke Chartered Accountants and Dynamic Print and Design, as well as Banana Fudge Studios.
