Our History
Wallace Robinson and Morgan was established in 1855 and celebrated our 168th Anniversary in 2023.
1855 – Family Beginnings
In 1855 T.J. Robinson became a Solicitor and founded the firm. His son, James Wallace Robinson, qualified in 1873 and T.J. Robinson’s grandson, Thomas Wallace Robinson, qualified in 1884. They both became partners in the firm, as did James’s grandson Sydney Robinson. Just prior to the First World War T.W. Robinson took Charles Henry Morgan into the partnership..
1920s
The firm was based in Colmore Row, Birmingham until the 1920s when it moved to 52 Newhall Street. Bill Cartwright joined the firm in 1924 becoming a partner in 1945 and remained until he retired as a consultant in 1994.
1940s – 70s
Stan Shortt, Denys Fordham and Roy Worster joined the firm in the early 1940s and the firm expanded into new offices in 55 Newhall Street. Eric Woodhead joined in 1967 and new offices were opened in Solihull, our current location, in 1968.

Paul Hughes, who joined the firm in 1984, and Tim Langford, who started his journey in 1990, played pivotal roles in shaping the history of Wallace Robinson & Morgan. In 1994, the firm centralised its operations in Solihull, a significant milestone in our growth, and in 1999, we expanded our presence by opening the Dorridge office.
Tragically, in August 2023, we bid farewell to our esteemed colleague Paul Hughes. His legacy, commitment and dedication to the firm continue through his daughter, Anna Hobbs, who qualified as a solicitor in August 2018 and became a Director in September 2023. Together with Tim Langford and their management team, they lead Wallace Robinson & Morgan into the future.
