PARDOES Solicitors welcomed clients, friends and families for festive drinks to celebrate the opening of new offices in Yeovil.

Around 70 people attended the drinks reception at the new facility, at The Old Post Office in King George Street.

The landmark building has undergone a full renovation to become what Pardoes said was a “vibrant, contemporary workspace for the growing team”, while “retaining its original character”.

Guests enjoyed a behind-the-scenes look at the refurbishment, with before-and-after photography showcasing the scale of the project and the care taken at the iconic Yeovil building.

Bhavani Hogarty, CEO of Pardoes Solicitors, said: “We are absolutely delighted to open our doors in Yeovil.

“The Old Post Office is a much-loved local landmark, and it has been a privilege to restore it and create a welcoming home for our team and our clients.

“We are very grateful to everyone who joined us to celebrate. The warmth and support from the local community has been wonderful and we are excited to continue building strong relationships here in Yeovil.”
