Central England
This photo of the Charles Rennie Mackintosh house in the centre of Northampton is the only place in the world where Mackintosh’s style can be seen in its original setting. He was an innovative architect ahead of his time and we admire that about him which is why we’ve chosen to feature this image.

Our Central England solicitors
As a regional hub located in the heart of England, our large office, which sits adjacent to Northampton university’s Waterside campus has grown out of client demand. With a heritage of almost 200 years behind us, the Central England team looks to the future, serving the businesses, organisations and individuals of a region that reaches across eight adjoining counties.
The dynamism in both the new office and that of the businesses around it are reflected by our expert team. With the wide range of legal specialisms you’d expect from a Top 60 law firm, our Central England solicitors have been highly recommended in the leading legal directories.
Working with our communities to build a stronger future
We see our place in the heart of the communities we serve, providing legal support and expertise to the Central England economy. A strong background in tech and corporate law makes us the ideal advisors for companies looking to thrive in emerging spaces. Alongside that, we invest in building partnerships; including our relationship with the Northampton Saints rugby team as their official legal partner, and our support for the Northamptonshire and Milton Keynes Community Foundations.
Our full-service Central England team work across a wide range of sectors, from agriculture, healthcare, property and charities to manufacturing, technology and sports. We work with our clients across these disciplines to ensure a bright future for the region.
