Our legal experts understand your challenges and strategic goals.
About us
Who We Are We’re legal and financial advisors with a difference, based in 26 UK locations and with an international presence as members of First Law International. Giving the best possible advice is about more than knowledge and expertise. It means understanding the people and businesses you work with as deeply as possible. It means taking the time to listen to what matters most to you. It’s what we call ‘the expert hand with human touch’. We’re a full-service law firm, which means whatever advice you need, we can help. Personal We all need legal or financial advice at some point in our personal lives. It can help us through some of our key milestones – buying a house, getting married, planning retirement, providing for your kids’ future, or moving to a new country. It’s also vital when things don’t go according to plan - if you’re hurt in an accident, a medical procedure goes wrong, a loved one loses mental capacity, or you’re treated unfairly by work or the government. It could also be a difficult family matter such as a separation or a dispute over a Will. Legal advice can give us peace of mind for the future, whether that’s with a new Will, a power of attorney, or a solid financial plan. Whatever your situation, we have specialists ready to help. We’ll listen to you and get you the best possible outcome. Business Our lawyers are more than just problem-solvers. We’re your long-term strategic advisors. We’ll work with you and your teams to give practical, commercially-minded advice tailored to your goals and targets. Our solicitors truly understand your sector and the market pressures you face, and can offer comprehensive insight and support. We can advise and represent you in any area of law. You can rest assured that you’re getting one integrated plan that takes all your legal needs into account. We’re also the UK partner of First Law International, an elite global network of law firms, and can help you access world-class legal advice around the world.

What is the right to disconnect? Employees have enjoyed an increase in flexible working over the past few years. However, one drawback of having work equipment available outside of the office is that it has caused the lines between work and home life to become less distinct. With many workers facing longer hours and burnout, details are beginning to emerge about the new right to disconnect. Find out what we know so far in this month’s employment update: bit.ly/3MdVUC7 #EmploymentLaw #WorkLifeBalance #FlexibleWorking

Following a road traffic collision, our client, Praise, is determined not to let her disability hold her back from participating in sport. Praise spent time with seven-time champion, and our ambassador, Hannah Cockroft OBE, PLY, DL, for a day of wheelchair racing. With Hannah’s expert guidance, Praise was soon doing laps of the track. Afterwards, Praise had the chance to ask Hannah how she got into disability sport and what it means to her. Find out more: bit.ly/3JQgJBV #DisabilitySport #SpinalInjury #WheelchairRacing #Disability

Earlier this year, our colleagues nominated 13 charities across the country that mean the most to them, to receive a donation from the Irwin Mitchell Charities Foundation Fund. The donation, worth a combined total of over £220,000, will help aid in everything from improving wellbeing, to supporting access to employment, justice and education. Each month, we’ll put these charities in the spotlight… This month we’re sharing the great work Grace House North East do to ensure disabled young people enjoy the benefits of playing a full part in society.
