About us

90% of what law firms say sounds the same

Most law firms talk about being commercial, being your trusted advisor, acting professionally, delivering projects on time and being technically competent. We might do the same from time to time as these things are absolutely relevant to what we do every day, but these things should really be taken as a given. In short, we offer all the services you’d expect from a law firm, but it’s how we do it that makes us distinctive.

Speaking your language

So we’re a business that sells legal services but we’re a business just like yours or the one you work in. We’ve had our ups and downs, we’ve grown, we’ve moved offices. We’ve been there and done that which makes us good at speaking your language – to coin a cliché! We might call ourselves “lawyers” or “solicitors” but we’re not really that different to you. We’re individuals with expertise in our field and we’re genuinely interested in yours.

Take that, legal jargon!

Our clients say they like that we give them what they want and need without over-complicating things; just because legal issues can be very complex doesn’t mean we have to make them complicated. We like to cut through the jargon and not hide behind a strange and old fashioned language which includes weird words like “alienation” and “estoppel”.

Great relationships

Our people are our strongest asset, so we build great internal relationships. We can’t put our finger on it but there’s certainly something about each of us which makes us “so EMW” and it’s often an emotional time when - infrequent as it is - someone chooses to leave us. It raises a smile when they regret their decision and end up back here! The point is, we like to look after each other, so forming great external relationships with clients, contacts and others comes naturally to us.

Let’s enjoy the journey

We don’t take ourselves too seriously either; even the most senior people in our business don’t shy away from witty banter! Trying to enjoy the journey as we go along is something we hold dear and we want you to be part of that.

We're looking for talented people who want to work as part of a team, helping to ensure we continue to give excellent service to our clients. 

If you think you've got what it takes, we'd love you to join us!

Everyone at EMW gets involved with charitable giving by taking part in our many activities, from a sky dive challenge to baking a fabulous victoria sponge cake, raising much needed funds for many wonderful charities.

We choose a different charity to support every two years and after the tragic loss of our lovely colleague Louise Holder, we’ve chosen to support a charity that was very close to her heart, the NSPCC. We’ll be raising money for all the great work they do for the next two years.

As of July 2019, we have raised £4,983.79 and we would like to thank everyone who has donated so far.

As you can see below, we get out and about lots too, here's just a few of the events we have been involved in and charities we have supported recently…
