We are a leading, full-service UK law firm. Since our beginning, we have been led by the things that matter. We care about fighting for the right outcomes. Solving the seemingly unsolvable. Protecting businesses, individuals and livelihoods. Supporting our people, our communities. Safeguarding our planet. Looking for a way forward? At Hugh James, challenges – of all sizes – are readily accepted.
Our law firm has always been guided by the idea that self-belief is just as important as skillset. Our pursuit of righting wrongs and protecting what’s important keeps us driving forwards. It’s in our roots! We won’t stop until we find the answers; the outcomes that are needed.
We are focused on the work we do, the business we run, and our culture. Our entrepreneurial spirit has taken us from humble beginnings to a strong presence across the UK with offices in Cardiff, London, Manchester, Southampton and Plymouth – servicing clients from businesses, individuals and banks to public sector organisations, property companies, education establishments and utilities providers. Our collegiate culture, our forward-looking ethos, our values serve to make us bigger, better, bolder than ever before.
At Simpson Millar, we’ve been providing expert legal advice since 1841, when Henry Simpson became a partner in the London Bridge area. Over the past 180 years, we’ve grown into a modern, forward-thinking law firm, dedicated to delivering clear, trusted, and professional legal services to individuals across England and Wales.
We believe legal advice should be accessible and easy to understand. We recognise that speaking to a Solicitor or a Lawyer can feel daunting, which is why we pride ourselves on being approachable, transparent, and clear. Our teams work nationwide, across 7 offices, offering tailored advice to meet each client’s unique needs and circumstances.
Rather than taking a ‘one size fits all’ approach, we focus on providing bespoke solutions that always prioritise your best interests. Whether you’re facing a complex legal matter or simply seeking guidance, we explain everything in plain English, ensuring you’re fully informed at every stage, with no hidden costs or surprises.
We are committed to becoming the UK’s leading consumer law firm by delivering expert advice quickly, efficiently, and transparently. Our long history of innovation and excellence reflects our commitment to our clients. We were the first law firm to receive the Law Society’s award for excellence in Practice Management (Lexcel).
