We are closely watched by our clients, our legal peers, innovation leaders and business professionals across the country as we win client care and service innovation awards, given to us for making accessing, paying for and understanding expert legal advice just that little bit easier.
As well as offering you brilliant lawyers (that’s a given) from our offices across South Wales (in Cardiff, Pontypool and Newport) as well as our new London office, we also pride ourselves in being approachable, determined, compassionate, fun, strong, realistic, charitable and unafraid to do things differently if it helps our clients.
The fact that we win awards for doing this is the cherry on the cake for us but it’s only important if it helps our clients feel reassured that our awards and accolades are given by those who truly recognise service excellence and making our clients’ lives easier.
Of course we are incredibly proud to win the respect of high ranking legal professionals through awards and national rankings that that celebrate legal excellence. However, you can be sure that we first aim to help you – to deliver access to justice and to be more helpful and valuable to clients today and tomorrow – not simply to win awards!
