A leading UK law firm with a network of offices from the South Coast to Scotland, working together as one national team. An innovative practice and the first top 100 law firm to achieve “Gold Standard” Investors in People, our values and culture are not just words on our website but are the heartbeat of the firm. The lack of barriers between departments, a real lack of hierarchy, zero tolerance for arrogance and pomposity makes Shoosmiths a fantastic place to work. |

We also have a growing corporate finance practice, primarily advising listed clients on equity capital raisings in the public market.

Our work covers the full range of Corporate transactions. We have particular experience in the private equity and domestic as well as cross-border M&A arenas. |
