The firm of Paris Steele W.S. was founded around 1926 by a solicitor called Mr James Paris Steele. The practice was acquired by Mr Tom Walker in the early 1950's and the current senior partner, Gordon Symon, joined the firm in 1973. He was joined by the other partner, Edward Danks, in 1996.
The practice offices at 35 Westgate, North Berwick.
The practice was originally located at 1 Beach Road, but in 1975 moved to larger premises at 35 Westgate which was the former Clydedale Bank Manager's house. This grade 'B' listed building has been sympathetically changed over the years to accommodate the pleasant office accommodation which it offers today with its Property Showroom on the ground floor and private consulting rooms with fine sea views on the upper floor.
