Our Resolve. Your Resolution.
With over 80% of our instructions derived from repeat business and personal recommendation, we know that delivering fantastic client service really matters.
Our colleagues are committed to delivering service to standards that are consistent with our four key values of being professional, supportive, approachable and friendly.
A really important motivator for everyone at Harrowells is that sense of purpose when we successfully help our clients – whether achieving a personal or business goal, securing peace of mind about the future or minimising the impact of a potentially negative issue.
Our clients tell us that we show empathy, are proactive and anticipate issues, and keep them informed and involved. Here is just a small sample of the positive comments we regularly receive from our clients:
‘Attention to detail, quick responses and gave measured advice’
‘Speed of response, proactivity and keeping things moving’
‘Always able to speak to someone when needed’
‘Good coverage for holidays - didn't have to wait till someone returned’
As a successful regional law firm, we can offer you opportunities to develop your career and hone your specialist skills – whether it is complex Private Client estate planning, challenging Family Law cases involving parental alienation, complex agricultural land transactions, advising on cutting edge developments in the renewables sector or get that multi-party corporate deal over the line.
