📖 The most recent chapter in Williams Denton’s 100 year history began just a year ago, with the acquisition of Hawley and Company on 31 October 2025.
Based in Trinity Square, Llandudno, Hawley and Company had built a strong reputation over many years. The acquisition brought together two firms with a shared commitment to excellent, personal service, with the Hawley and Company team joining us at our Llandudno office.
Geoff Hawley stayed on in a consultancy role for 12 months, helping to ensure continuity for his clients and a smooth handover of those relationships. With that year now complete, it’s time to say thank you and goodbye to Geoff.
💬 Reflecting on his time with us, Geoff said:
“I am really pleased with how the last year has gone, following my merger with Williams Denton a year ago. The Williams Denton team have taken the time to get to know my former clients and their businesses, and the transition from my firm has been very smooth. I have always worked on the basis that the service provided to clients is the most important part of the job and I know that Williams Denton shares the same philosophy. I am confident that our clients and their work are in safe hands. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the firm and wish the whole team every success for the future.”
🙏 Thank you, Geoff, for your support over the past year and for the trust you’ve placed in our team. We wish you all the very best for the future.
