About Us
Who are we?
Lionshead Law is primarily an employment law practice with a strong commercial arm. Alongside the legal services provided by our lawyers, we alsp provide organisations with the types of services that they typically require from an HR perspective such as helping them to assess and implement reasonable adjustments for disabled employees, training managers, conducting internal investigations, recruitment and selection and in terms of providing their staff with external support by way of employee benefits. A list of the typical support services we provide can be found here Employment law and HR support – Lionshead Law.
Our mission is to offer our clients clear commercial advice from the most experienced and personable lawyers, for the best value and without the constraints of normal office hours or fixed location.
Established in 2012 as a virtual office law firm, Lionshead has always committed to its values of inclusion, flexible working, reducing carbon usage, and response times from a proactive human lawyer in minutes not hours or days.
Our practice attracts top lawyers who are passionate about their work and share our values: fee transparency; responsiveness, a human touch and putting our clients’ desired outcomes front and centre of everything we do.
Our clients are the reason we are here and we pride ourselves in building relationships that last many years.
What we can do for you
We can either work on the basis of fixed fees which are agreed with clients in advance – (fixed-fees are either set for an entire piece of work or in stages where negotiation and litigation is involved) – or on an hourly rate charged by the minute rather than the unit. We believe legal services should be accessible, affordable and that clients should know exactly what they’re paying for with no nasty surprises. Most importantly, we are “Always here for you…”
What we can do for your Business
Transparency is key. We work on the basis of fixed fees and monthly retainers rather than hourly rates so that our clients always know what they’re getting and what it will cost. Our lawyers are experts in their field, personable, responsive and “Always here for you…”
