Our highly motivated and experienced multi-disciplinary team is noted for its "professional, user friendly and innovative advice" and its "efficient and supportive" service.

Our reputation as the “lawyers’ lawyers” comes from advising some of the UK’s largest law firms on their internal HR issues. Our employment team deals with matters such as performance management and exits, balancing flexible working requests with client demands, managing sickness absence and disability, and secondments to overseas offices.

With our corporate and dispute resolution colleagues, we also advise law firms on partnership matters such as LLP and partnership agreements, LLP conversions,  restructuring, partnership disputes, fiduciary and confidentiality duties, team moves and restrictive covenants. Our client training programme includes discussion forums and other events aimed specifically at law firms.

We draw together expertise from around the firm, including our marketing leading Employment and Partnership and LLP practices to create a team with genuine ability to advise on a whole range of issues that may affect professional practices. The team is particularly well placed to advise on all corporate related matters for those professional service firms that operate as companies.
