Irwin Mitchell

Irwin Mitchell is unlike any other law firm. Nationally acclaimed, with a strong international capability, they offer a broad range of legal services to national and international organisations and institutions, small and medium-sized businesses and private individuals. The firm was founded in 1912 by Walter Irwin Mitchell. With a concentration on criminal law, he aimed to provide the highest quality legal services to the general public from his small legal practice in Sheffield. Today, Irwin Mitchell is the 20th largest law firm in the UK and amongst the top 50 in Europe, operating out of 10 UK offices. They currently employ over 2,300 members of staff, including over 1,000 legally trained personnel and have helped over 1 million clients in their 100 year history. The Business Legal Services division is also the fastest-growing area of the firm, with an increasing number of global, national and regional companies choosing to work with us. In 2012, they became one of the first companies to be approved as an Alternative Business Structure (ABS), allowing us to plan for growth and take advantage of the opportunities created by the changing legal landscape.
