About

Provided by Irwin Mitchell

We pride ourselves on delivering an exceptional client service with an expert hand and a human touch.

Our National way of working continues to be successful. Clients and referrers are particularly attracted by our Teams of Excellence – having confidence that the lawyer they instruct is a specialist in the area of law they need.


We have introduced a Client Journey Project whereby we continuously assess feedback from clients. We have formed a new body called the Client Voice – clients give feedback on what we deliver, what we need to change and how we should introduce new concepts.


It is important to us to give back to our communities and we have set up a pro bono clinic for the Jewish community. Our people embrace this and give their time freely to provide access to justice to those who need it the most.


We promote a diverse and inclusive work environment which is open and transparent so that our people can be the best version of themselves. We provide training, support, mentoring and have a specific growth academy focussed on nurturing soft skills and developing talent. Our firm continues to be committed to providing a flexible by choice working environment allowing our people to serve the clients in the best possible way, providing a bespoke service delivered with emotional and commercial intelligence.
