Yorkshire-based law firm Ison Harrison has bought Skipton-based personal injury specialists Armstrong Luty Solicitors.
Ison Harrison employs more than 350 staff across Yorkshire. The employee-owned firm has over 13 Law Society accreditations including Lexcel, Clinical Negligence, Family Law, Immigration & Asylum, Conveyancing Quality and SRA Higher Courts Rights – civil and criminal.
The deal helps Ison Harrison’s strategic growth, expanding its reach across North Yorkshire and enhancing its personal injury capabilities. The move increases the firm’s total number of offices across the region to 21, with additional branches being announced imminently as part of its continued expansion strategy.
Established in 1995, Armstrong Luty Solicitors has built a strong reputation in Skipton and the surrounding area, providing expert legal support to clients involved in personal injury claims over the past three decades. The acquisition sees the firm’s operations integrated into Ison Harrison’s growing network, boosting its presence in North Yorkshire and bolstering its specialist legal services.
Armstrong Luty will continue to serve clients from its current Skipton office, which will now operate under the Ison Harrison brand.
Managing partner of Ison Harrison, Jonathan Wearing, said: “Armstrong Luty’s expertise in personal injury law is a natural fit with our own, and this integration significantly strengthens and broadens our personal injury offering. Together, we’re more capable, adaptable, and better positioned to serve our clients than ever before. It also supports the firm’s wider ambition of making high-quality legal advice more accessible across Yorkshire.”
Andrew Armstrong, founder of Armstrong Luty, said: “Becoming part of Ison Harrison marks an exciting new chapter for us. Their strong reputation and widespread presence across the region will enable us to offer even greater support to our clients. Nick Luty, co-founder also added “We’re proud to join a forward-thinking, employee-owned firm that shares our commitment to delivering client-focused legal services. It’s a natural and positive fit for both teams.”
