Working at Coffin Mew LLP

Our lawyers and support professionals promote and uphold the highest professional standards, for us that means: being passionate about exceptional service delivery; being energised by the challenge to perform at our very best for our clients and our colleagues; being committed to learning new skills and developing our capabilities; proactively seeking out and seizing opportunities to make a difference to our clients and our business, no matter what level we are at or what role we perform.

The firm is in a phase of growth and ambition and a number of top level strategic appointments have been made and more are in the pipeline. In 2016 we were ranked eighth in The Lawyer UK 200 list of best managed law firms in the UK over the past three years.  We have many very talented legal and operational teams with many of our teams lauded as specialists in the key legal directories and some gaining awards for their levels of service excellence. 

We seek to promote and develop an entrepreneurial culture, supported by a culture of excellence and a strong sense of belonging and engagement amongst all of our people.

We are committed to providing equal opportunities in employment for all of our current and prospective employees. We recognise and value individual differences and seek to retain and recruit talented individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds.

Open and regular communication with our staff is fundamental to our culture. We ensure:

• all staff know and understand the firm’s vision, values (core and brand) and strategic plans and understand how they play a part in achieving the firm’s goals
• all Coffin Mew staff receive timely and relevant information about the development of the firm, its successes and initiatives (both new and those in progress)
• we engage with a wide group of staff in the development of our internal communications processes
• we use internal communications as an effective feedback forum within the business
• we are open and inclusive and we promote a culture of challenge and support

We’re proud of our culture; it’s why we stand out as a law firm that does things differently.
