Cooper Carter Claremont is a broadly based general practice providing the services that are demanded by the local public and tailored to suit their needs. Hailsham is a town with strong commercial and agricultural traditions. Its expanding residential population and light industrial sectors form the bedrock of the firm's clientele together with the agricultural and residential communities in outlying areas. Additionally, through historical connections and by recommendation, the firm provides legal services to clients in various parts of the UK and, in particular, central and south London.

Cooper Carter Claremont was formed by two separate mergers of existing firms. In January 1985 the firms of Coopers (formerly Coles & James), Chas J Odhams & Sons and Adrian Carter & Co merged to form Cooper Carter & Odhams. Coopers, orginally Coles & James, had been practising in Hailsham since approximately 1820. Chas J Odhams had been practising in Hailsham since 1950 and was the second office of a firm based in Wallington, Surrey. Adrian Carter & Co had been practising in Hailsham since 1980.

On 1st September 1990 Cooper Carter Odhams acquired Claremont & Co and the firm's name was changed accordingly. Claremont & Co had previously been established in Eastbourne since 1971 having formerly practised as Claremont Heynes & Co in Brighton and Eastbourne.

The beginning of 2005 saw the opening of the Immigration Department which practises as CCClaw Immigration. This department provides a valuable service to our community offering help with a wide range of immigration issues.
