Ready to be part of a different kind of law firm?
Warning: This is not the same as other Ads you may have just read. We’re fixing the outdated and broken law firm model. This doesn’t mean we’re going all AI and virtual – hell no – we’ve just found a better way to help our people to be happier, grow faster & be financially rewarded from day one.
You can see we do things a bit differently at Hedges (more on this later on).
We may have a 225 year heritage in Private Client practice but that doesn’t mean we’re a stale, dull & suppressive law firm, like so many. No chance.
At Hedges our people (we call them “HedgeHolders”) are:
1. Empowered (everyone really does have a voice)
2. Valued
3. Challenged by high-quality work for HNW & High Vis clients
4. Set-off at the right pace
5. Nurtured and developed
6. Accelerated (faster career progression)
7. Liberated by tech to save time
8. Paid what they are worth (As you will own the business)
9. All vested in the firm’s success: ours is theirs!
And this is because at Hedges we are EMPLOYEE-OWNED – we were only the 5th firm in the country to join this highly-exclusive and progressive club.
Whilst we love and embrace our heritage and history, we’ve evolved this firm with the times to become a truly 21st century business: making it our job to innovate, excite, and ensure that when future generations look at our pictures lining the wall, not only can they see what a terrific, friendly bunch we are, BUT that we were also the 'dream team', the mavericks, the leaders in the field, the game-changers: those who kept moving Hedges forward and relevant, making it one of the most beautifully different law firms of its time.
