Freeths provide advice and guidance in a way that feels like they are part of our business. Rather than just giving options and risk, they give direction.
Freeths are extremely insightful, supportive and clear in their feedback. It is also a pleasure working with members of a team who are friendly and relaxed.
What is particularly impressive is that not only are they commercially aware, they are also industry-aware of the specific issues each industry faces.
Understanding our organisation has allowed Freeths to work proactively with us to address issues early or avert them altogether. I have not seen this level of engagement from other legal providers.
We work effectively together to reach tailored solutions that meet the needs of the organisation, rather than applying a 'broad-brush' approach.
