About Us

Our independence is core to our purpose and key values as a firm. We are committed to delivering a tailored service with integrity and understanding, building lasting relationships that go beyond legal transactions. We strive to make a positive impact for the long term as a responsible employer and business within our wider community.

Our Independence

We are proudly independent through choice – we believe it offers the best for our clients, our people and the community.  Being an independent owner managed business is at the heart of our firm.  Our owners are embedded in the business taking personal responsibility for our services and culture.  Our independence better enables us to meet the needs of our clients and people.

Your Success

Our independence drives our culture and how we deliver our services.  It allows us to provide legal solutions for businesses and individuals in a way that helps our clients succeed at work and in their lives.  We deliver our services with care and build personal and lasting relationships enabling our clients to succeed and meet their goals.

Our unique workplace culture is made possible by remaining independent and having our Family FSP ethos at the heart of our decision making.  We champion our peoples’ development and success, so they in turn can help our clients succeed.

We Care

We are passionate about our firm, the service we provide and our ethos; our success has always been about more than just financial numbers.  Our empathy for our clients’ business and life challenges allows us to deliver a truly tailored service.  Our Family FSP ethos embodies our care for our people and enables them to better support their families and friends.  We also want the best for our community and our independent charity (FSP Foundation) helps support local causes.

It’s Personal

Our business is built on relationships, whether with our people, clients, or other professionals.  We care about the person behind the instruction or the role and strive to develop trusted relationships built on integrity and decency.  We build relationships on a personal level so that we can really understand what we need to do to help our clients and people achieve their goals.

For the Long Term

We are independent and want to leave a legacy.  We take decisions with a view to the long-term, not unsustainable short-term gain.  Lasting relationships with our people, our clients and other professionals are intrinsic to our firm and our success.  We provide continued support to the wider community as a responsible employer and business, and in our engagement with charitable causes.
