How We Work

We are totally committed to our clients and to being responsible and flexible in the way we work with them. They value our honesty, commercially focused advice and hard work. They find us friendly and caring, with expertise and integrity. People – our own colleagues and our clients – are our passion.

We understand that our role extends beyond providing excellent legal advice, to taking our social responsibility seriously. Our local involvement, charitable work and commitment to net-zero ensure that we are the law firm of choice for clients and employees.

Our International Experience

From commercial agreements to navigating complicated employment and immigration law, we pride ourselves on our practical and commercial approach. We handle a range of international issues for businesses of all kinds, involving real estate, restructuring and insolvency, employment and staff migration, intellectual property and dispute resolution.

We also work with private members of the international community who have legal issues in the UK. We have a reputation for being open and honest about any potential risk involved – and for helping you achieve an effective resolution.

Our team includes lawyers qualified to practice in multiple countries around the world, including Australia, the US, Canada and India as well as the UK.

Cost Effective

Our international headquarters is based in London, but because the majority of HCR’s lawyers are based outside London, we are able to keep our costs down while maintaining a very high level of quality.

What We Offer

We offer the full range of legal services to organisations, businesses and individuals, from corporate, litigation and commercial matters to intellectual property and employment law. Our services for individuals include residential property, wealth management, immigration and family law.

We have been independently rated as one of the UK’s most active M&A advisers, operating at the intersection of business and investment, assisting clients with complex investments and high-value domestic and cross-border transactions.

The strength and depth of our firm allows us to provide comprehensive support on a wide range of associated matters such as investigatory due diligence in difficult parts of the world, financial investigations and reputation management.

Our teams offer solutions to a client’s immediate needs but will also anticipate future needs.
