Shoosmiths is a law firm clients choose for excellent service, incisive thinking and above all for our ability to focus on what matters.
There is no secret to our growth over recent years. Clients love working with Shoosmiths people because of the way we work and the results we consistently deliver for them.
Our client list speaks volumes for the quality of our lawyers and the experience they provide; from Mercedes-Benz, Octopus Ventures and Travelodge to property developers and some of the UK's largest banks, we work with a growing number of the FTSE 250 and some of the world's most exciting and ambitious growth businesses.
At Shoosmiths, innovation is in our DNA. That’s why the FT recognises us as one of Europe’s most innovative law firms.
The Shoosmiths client experience. Focused on what matters to you.
Every service innovation we have delivered in recent years has come about through listening to clients and working with them to find a better way of working, so they and we can work smarter, faster and better.
We are delighted to be working with you. And, if we’re not working with you yet, then we are really looking forward to getting to know you.
At Shoosmiths, working with clients is all about perspective and attitude – when we share these, it’s a powerful relationship. Your visions, goals and ambitions become ours, and we are as passionate as you are about achieving them.
Much of our work has an international aspect to it; whether this be advising international clients on their inward investment into the UK, advising UK based clients on their outbound work, or multi-nationals on multi-jurisdiction projects.
We act for multi-national businesses and organisations, investment funds, scaling tech businesses, international property developers, retail chains, and others, advising them across a range of services.
In addition, our Brussels office advises clients on EU competition, regulatory and trade law.
