2022 – The Year That Almost Was
With COVID largely behind us we looked forward to a more certain future …well, “the best laid plans of mice and men” springs to mind. In February the conflict in Ukraine began and continues to affect the world economy; we’re on our third Prime Minister and our fourth Chancellor, and of course we’ve had various budgets.
Throughout, we continued to serve our clients and to build an even stronger business. We retained the Northamptonshire Large Law Firm of the year award building on the success of 2015,2017/2018, 2019, (2020 was cancelled), 2021, and now again 2022.
Early in the year we rolled-out the second instalment of our TV ad which was a bold step but one that shows the strength of the firm and its willingness to invest and to always strive for better.
Feefo (independent customer service reviews) honoured us with a Platinum award for outstanding customer service. We sponsored more events than we can mention and delivered more presentations/speeches than one could reasonably count. Our success in the Legal 500 (the who’s who of the legal world) continues with multiple teams and individuals recognised. Two of our future stars gained their own plaudits winning or being shortlisted for prestigious awards (well done Kayleigh Brown and Jessica Leech, and of course Imran Ilias for Employee Of The Year).
We have continued to grow, continued to invest in the business, continued to invest in our people, and continued to provide our clients with the high quality of service and expertise they need.
We thrive and survive because we have a good business and YOU (the staff, Partners and everyone that works for us or with us as a client) are at the centre of that. It is only your hard work, your dedication, your loyalty and your contribution that helps us achieve that. On that note, I wish you all (Partners, staff and clients) a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and look forward to 2023, when we continue our journey together.
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
