The title might look familiar but life at Hedges is anything but. We know the challenges that come with risk and compliance roles in legal practice firefighting, box-ticking, outdated systems, and being brought in after decisions are made. That s not how we do things. At Hedges Law , we ve reimagined the traditional model by putting ownership in the hands of the people who actually drive the business forward including those who protect it. Here, risk and compliance isn t a back-office function it s a strategic voice at the table, shaping decisions, policies and safeguards alongside people who are genuinely invested in the firm s long-term success. And as one of the UK s first employee-owned law firms, you won t just advise the business, you ll own part of it no waiting around for a Financial Freedom Day that may never come. We also understand what drives experienced Solicitor / Lawyers and how frustrating it can be to feel undervalued, brought in too late to influence decisions, stuck enforcing outdated processes, or held back by slow-moving leadership and limited commercial input. If that sounds familiar, it s worth reading on. At Hedges, our people are: • Empowered (your voice genuinely shapes the business) • Valued as strategic contributors, not gatekeepers • Trusted to balance compliance with commerciality • Challenged in a progressive, forward-thinking firm • Supported with modern systems and processes • Accelerated in their development • Rewarded properly including profit share And this is because we are EMPLOYEE-OWNED one of a very small number of firms in the UK with this structure. Fancy a confidential coffee and chat (virtual or otherwise)? Ok, back to being different We may have a 235-year heritage as a Private Client Legal Practice , but that doesn't mean we're a stale, dull & oppressive law firm like so many others. No chance. Whilst we love and embrace our heritage and history, we ve evolved this firm with the times to become a truly 21st century business: making it our job to innovate, excite, and ensure that when future generations look at our pictures lining the wall, not only can they see what a terrific, friendly bunch we are, BUT that we were also the 'dream team', the mavericks, the leaders in the field, the game-changers: those who kept moving Hedges forward and relevant, making it one of the most beautifully different law firms of its time. Word on the street: "City Firm Quality exported to Oxfordshire & The Cotswolds". The 5th employee-owned law firm in the UK so you will have a share in the business' success from day one. There's no 'buy-in' and no liability with our innovative trust shareholder structure. It's really special and means the world to our employees. Last year was our biggest revenue year yet and we have ambitious and exciting plans for the future - there's still so much to do and achieve and we're not happy unless we're pushing boundaries So, how about you come and be a part of our future and us a part of yours?
