Company Profile

Charles Russell Speechlys is a full service law firm offering an unusually broad range of expertise to both individuals and businesses. Headquartered in the City of London, with offices located specifically in centres of private wealth – three in the UK and eight internationally – the Firm is a leader in the world of dynamic growth and offers a considered and personal approach to its clients.

The Charles Russell Speechlys Way is made up of seven core values and provides our clients with an understanding of what they can expect when we deliver our advice, but also what our employees can expect from the culture of the Firm when in the working environment:

Understand

We think broadly, taking all of a client’s considerations into account: from the context in which people operate, to the full spread of commercial, personal and emotional needs

Think long

We think about long-term impacts and outcomes, not just short-term benefits. We invest time, effort and emotion in to building relationships based on trust and loyalty

Question

We are forever curious, asking if the approach is right for each client, each time. If we’re not sure, we challenge the accepted viewpoint. It encourages us to innovate in the search for better solutions

Connect

Being engaging and approachable is part of our personal approach. We value the human connection, whether it’s knowing our colleagues, or our clients and their worlds

Collaborate

We transcend any internal boundaries when serving a client. We help and support each other whenever we can and share our skills, knowledge and experience as part of a collective intelligence

Be clear

We ensure that people understand what we say and what our advice means for all concerned. We tailor our communication to suit the character and situation of the recipient

Be human

We treat each other and our clients as we ourselves would want to be treated. We value difference in all its guises, sharing a common purpose but expressing our individuality

The Firm prides itself on exceptional client service and performance and this has been recognised through industry awards and accolades over the past few years, including: Legal Business Awards, 100 Awards, and Legal 500 UK Awards.

Charles Russell Speechlys is proud to be a Firm supporting equal opportunities and our inclusive culture is committed to ensuring that training and policies both facilitate and enhance the development and promotion of equal opportunities at all levels. With a wide range of social groups and professional memberships, there is plenty of opportunity to get involved with the many diversity and inclusion initiatives supported by the Firm each year.
