Our law firm makes client care the central philosophy behind everything we do and every decision we make. Every single member of our team has full autonomy to make each client feel like a VIP during every conversation and in every touch point with us.

We give each member of our team the freedom to make decisions and use their initiative to create a bespoke legal experience for every client.

 

IMPACT

 
This focus on extraordinary client care allows our team to form meaningful relationships with clients during extremely difficult times in their lives.

In a traditional, typically old-fashioned industry, we are approachable, down to earth, informal and dedicated to supporting our clients.

This allows clients to reveal personal details to us, to work better with us in preparing their legal cases, and often results in us developing ongoing friendships with clients – something rare in our industry.

 

INNOVATION

 
We feel that the true innovation we take advantage of is empowering every member of our team to have autonomy to decide what is best for their client.

This can include contacting them using means such as text message or Whatsapp, connecting with clients on social media, sending personal gifts at difficult times or special occasions, meeting with clients and families at venues to suit them, etc.

Our fee earning team each have out of hours numbers and are available to clients 24/7.

 

INSPIRATION

 
Our client care philosophy places each client at the centre of their case. We aim to make every client feel completely supported in their individual circumstances, without ever being rushed or feeling intimidated.

In our busy world, we often forget that sometimes what a client needs most is the permission to tell their story without judgement, the time to ask questions and be answered, and the knowledge that someone is dedicated to doing the best they can for them.
