The people who will actually run your matter.
Every file has one named partner or senior associate who owns it from instruction to closing note. Work is delegated where that is efficient; responsibility is not.

Senior attention as standard
Partners average nineteen years in practice. On every matter, the person setting the strategy is the person who has run one like it before.
Supervision that is real
Junior lawyers do the work they are competent to do, reviewed by a named supervisor whose own appraisal depends on that review actually happening.
