Brachers is an esteemed law firm with a rich history spanning over 125 years, known for delivering comprehensive legal services to a diverse range of clients, from SMEs to multinational corporations and private individuals. With two offices, 32 partners, and more than 200 employees, Brachers is celebrated for its client loyalty, supported by top national and regional rankings in Chambers UK and The Legal 500.

Central to its success is a values-led culture fostering a welcoming and collaborative workplace where employees feel engaged and empowered. The firm provides clear career pathways and a robust learning and development programme, helping staff realise their potential. Technological investments and flexible working policies enhance efficiency and work-life balance.

Wellbeing is prioritised through an Employee Assistance Programme, virtual GP appointments, and a Wellbeing Room, among other initiatives. The Menopause Workplace Pledge and financial wellness support further demonstrate Brachers' commitment to employee health. A notable reduction in stress-related absences by 66% underscores the effectiveness of these efforts.

Emphasising collaboration, Brachers invested in open-plan office refurbishments and hosts regular business development forums to encourage cross-team engagement. Social activities and firm-wide events, such as monthly after-work drinks and an annual party, promote camaraderie.

Brachers' leadership exemplifies its values, fostering a culture of trust and open communication. The firm supports local communities through initiatives like the 'charity of the year' programme, volunteering, and pro-bono legal advice.
