About

Although the name of the firm was originally established in 1928 when Mr Hedley Luce entered into partnership with Mr G F D Le Gallais, its roots can be traced through Mr Le Gallais who had practiced from 6, Hill Street since qualifying in 1889 and, prior to that, through Mr P Guiton who had practiced as a solicitor from the same premises since the 1870’s.

During the period from 1901 until 1972 the firm provided three Crown Solicitors for Jersey and, as such, represented the Crown as well as the Island’s government and administration for a total of 48 years. This came to an end in 1972 when the States of Jersey established a civil service department for this purpose.

Le Gallais & Luce are rightfully proud of their heritage and strive to retain the traditional values of client care and professionalism in everything they do. However, they also realise that today’s clients require modern answers to their problems and, therefore, ensure that all their staff are highly trained in all aspects of modern legal practice.

This combination of traditional values and modern answers ensures that all our clients receive a very personal service whilst at the same time being able to rest assured that they will be given the most up to date and appropriate legal advice at all times.
