Hunters Law

Company Profile

Hunters Law (Hunters) was founded in 1715 and has been based in Lincoln’s Inn since 1745. The continuing demand for its services reflects the Firm’s 21st century working practices. Hunters offers specialist legal advice across a range of services.

Hunters is a multi-disciplinary practice and lawyers work collaboratively to provide a comprehensive service across its broad practice areas. Whilst Hunters’ clients number private individuals, businesses, trusts, charities and other organisations, they all expect the individual personal service and high level of expertise for which Hunters is known.

Hunters identifies its clients’ needs and tailors its work to each set of circumstances, providing high quality, cost effective advice. A designated partner is personally responsible for every client: the special relationship which develops from this arrangement – very often built up over many years – is the bedrock of Hunters’ practice.

2015 saw Hunters reach a particularly special milestone, namely its Tercentenary. Hunters celebrated its 300 years throughout 2015 and introduced several new initiatives aimed at making sure the Firm continues to do what its clients want and need from them.

Hunters is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion (“EDI”) for all members of the firm, its clients, contacts and job applicants. Henry Hood, Senior Partner and Head of the Family department, recognises this as a priority and wishes to ensure that “the firm is a welcoming and inclusive home for all clients, lawyers and staff, committed to recruiting, retaining and promoting talent from diverse backgrounds”.

The Firm recently announced the launch of “Resolve”, a new “one couple, one lawyer” service designed for separating couples who wish to separate amicably and with dignity, whilst still benefitting from top-level legal advice. Resolve is offered by Henry Hood, a highly ranked lawyer with nearly thirty years of family law experience, largely in high net worth divorces. 

Hunters is recognised in The Times’ Best Law Firms 2023, highlighted as one of the top 250 legal practices in England and Wales, commended for its Family practice. 

Renowned for combining top-class legal advice with partner-led personal service, Hunters is consistently ranked as one of London’s top firms. It serves a largely high net worth client base of private individuals, trusts, landed estates, businesses, and charities.
