Quality of Expertise

Quality is our watchword

Burges Salmon has never been afraid of breaking new ground. And our pioneering approach has seen us excel over the past few years, with many practice areas featuring in the "Best of UK" tables of eminent legal directories for the first time.

We aim to be recognised widely as the firm of choice for those organisations and individuals looking for "City quality" expertise at rates which are notably less than those charged by London or offshore firms.

In addition we strive to differentiate ourselves in the investments we make both in our relationships with clients and in our people. Our reputation for winning and continually expanding our repertoire of challenging "City quality" work allows us to attract and retain top quality lawyers.

Nurturing leaders

Our highly experienced lawyers, supported by quality training, bring exceptional value to the relationships we build with our clients.  A higher proportion of our partners are rated as leaders in their field by Chambers and Partners Legal Directory than any of our direct rivals – in 2007, 70% achieved this accolade.

Gaining national recognition

Our combination of quality legal advice, enthusiasm, and realistic pricing differentiates us as a firm that competes at the very highest level. We have grown considerably over recent years, as we continue to win prestigious clients from our City rivals.

Working with clients from all sectors

Our client base is diverse, ranging from private individuals to government departments and major corporations including the Ministry of Defence, BAE Systems and FirstGroup.
