Years of consistent good service in the legal field makes Macaulay &
Riddell a sound example of how something can grow from small
beginnings and become established as one of Ladysmith’s most
recognised and respected law firms. James Macaulay, who
became a Senator, founded the firm in 1903. He practiced alone
initially as ‘James Macaulay, Solicitor’ up until 1932. He later was joined
by Samuel Marshall Riddell, who was admitted to partnership
immediately after World War Il. It was at this time that the firm
became known as Macaulay & Riddell. The name continued to be proudly
and faithfully retained through successive partnerships.
The present partners are James William Wright, James Howieson Marshall.
Macaulay & Riddell have served the community
faithfully with sound and innovative legal advice and expertise. There has
always been a non-wavering attitude of striving for excellence.
