Alkers Solicitors

Serving clients in Poulton-le-Fylde, Blackpool & Preston for over 87 years, Alkers Solicitors has built a reputation for delivering exceptional legal advice and a truly client-focused service. Founded in 1937 as W & H Alker, our family-run firm has steadily grown, evolving over the decades to become a prominent name in the region. This long and rich history is underpinned by a steadfast commitment to upholding traditional customer service values, ensuring that every client feels supported, valued and directly connected to their legal representative.

At Alkers, we believe accessibility is paramount. Our clients are never left in the dark, and always have direct access to their specialist solicitor via email and telephone. This guarantees immediate communication, swift responses to queries, and a comforting sense of constant support throughout their legal journey.

This philosophy is spearheaded by our principal solicitor, Derek Alker, who qualified in 1973 and has dedicated decades to championing the rights of individuals seeking civil litigation assistance and personal injury compensation. He leads a dynamic team of legal professionals, all specialists in their respective fields, committed to providing tailored legal solutions for a diverse range of cases. You can trust our expertise to navigate the complexities of legal proceedings, be it personal injury claims arising from accidents on the road, at work, or in public spaces, or the sensitive domain of clinical negligence where errors by healthcare professionals have caused harm.

Our commitment to excellence extends beyond providing legal counsel. We are dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for our clients, diligently pursuing their claims and fighting tirelessly to secure the compensation they deserve. This unwavering dedication, combined with our personal and accessible approach, sets Alkers Solicitors apart.
