Our client base is diverse and includes multinational companies, plcs and private individuals. We are committed to developing strong, transparent relationships with each and every one. We're also extremely adaptable and progressive in the way we do business; we use our cutting-edge technology to give clients a real advantage. We're always looking to offer solution-based legal advice in an approachable and down-to-earth way that's designed to achieve great results.

Recent examples of our work include: the corporate division advising on deals worth over £500 million in the first six months of 2011; the launch of an employment law app that's available on every model of Smartphone; and advising BetFred on the property aspects of its landmark deal to buy the Tote.

What's more, we're also committed to investing in our community agenda and work closely with a number of regional charities and organisations to help add real value to the services they provide.
