Entrepreneurship, based on sound foundations of expertise and experience, marks out HCR Hewitsons as a firm with a different approach – ready to innovate, keeping clients as its focus.
We offer both in-depth specialist legal expertise and insights into key issues, through events and publications such as our recent national Cyber Conference and our Future Workspaces white paper.
Our Future Workspaces report considered the impact of home working on our economy and infrastructure, based on our own research both pre- and post-pandemic. It highlighted some of the changes we all see in the use of office space and commercial property.
From corporate and commercial work to construction, our teams provide the kind of service that leads people to say: “HCR Hewitsons provide us with an excellent service that we have yet to find with other firms” in one of the legal directories ranking lawyers across the UK.
Those rankings are evidence of our expertise. Clients acknowledge our “exceptionally responsive, extremely helpful” employment team, as well as a pensions team whose “depth and breadth of pensions knowledge is extensive”.
Our top tier dispute resolution team is likewise recognised for its expertise in technology cases, both domestic and international.
That expertise extends from agriculture and estates complexities to companies needing advice on corporate and commercial law. A deep understanding of their sector’s needs draws praise for our charities team too.
A client said: “We are grateful for the team’s empathy and for their concern to understand our needs.”
