Ready for 2026 to be your brightest yet? The title might look the same, but life at Hedges is definitely not. We know the challenges that face most Solicitors in-practice which is why we transformed the outdated model of legal services by putting ownership in the hands of those who deliver them. At Hedges Law, every case, every client and every decision is powered by people who are personally invested in long-term success. As one of the first legal firms in the UK to become employee owned you will be part of this exclusive club and literally own this success. No having to wait around for the ‘Financial Freedom Day’, that may never come. We also understand what motivates Private Client Solicitors, and we know there are so many of you out there who are Undervalued, Not Appreciated, Deflated & De-Motivated by low-value work, low fixed-fees that are imposed on you, archaic practices, out-dated management, slow IT & even slower career progression. And you’re precisely who should read on now... At Hedges our people are: Empowered (everyone really does have a voice) • Valued • Challenged by high-quality work for HNW clients • Set-off at the right pace • Nurtured and developed • Accelerated (faster career progression) • Paid what they are worth And this is because at Hedges we are EMPLOYEE-OWNED - we were only the 5th firm in the country to join this highly-exclusive club. Fancy a confidential coffee and chat (virtually)?
