About Us

Borlase & Co Solicitors is a long established high street firm based in the heart of the historic market town of Helston, Cornwall. With roots tracing back to the early 19th century, the Borlase name has been associated with legal practice in Cornwall since at least 1822, reflecting a proud heritage of serving the local community for generations.

Over the years, the firm has evolved alongside the people and businesses it supports, but its core values have remained the same: integrity, reliability and a commitment to clear, straightforward advice. From its early beginnings to the present day, Borlase & Co has built a reputation as a trusted local firm, combining traditional principles with a modern approach to legal services.

Today, we continue that legacy by offering a wide range of legal services for you, your family and your business. Whether you are planning for the future, navigating a difficult time or managing your affairs, we aim to make the process as clear and stress free as possible.

Clear, honest communication is at the heart of everything we do. We take the time to understand your circumstances, explain your options in plain English and provide practical, sensible advice you can rely on.

At Borlase & Co, we are proud of our history, but even more focused on supporting our clients today and for generations to come.
