Antony Davies LLB (HONS)

I qualified as a solicitor in 1984 and worked in Skipton with Walker Foster Solicitors. In 1999 I left to set up my own firm and then in 2002 joined John Spencer’s already established rural practice “Spencer Davies” which I have continued after John Spencer’s partial retirement.

I handle a wide range of private client matters including residential and commercial conveyancing, wills and tax planning, administration of estates, lasting powers of attorney, business advice, agricultural land and farming matters.

I have always tried to provide a professional service in a friendly and approachable way, hopefully explaining the intricacies of the law in an easily accessible and understandable way. The administrative burdens of running a sole trader business whilst continuing to provide a high level of service have become increasingly more difficult and so I was delighted to be able to joint Michael McGarry and his team. We share a similar ethos and outlook and desire to continue to provide accessible and convenient legal services for our clients in the Yorkshire Dales.

Outside the office, I am involved in Rugby Union’s judicial process as an independent judicial chair and single judicial officer which has taken me all over the world. I am also a World Rugby accredited trainer of judicial
