In an ever-changing legal landscape we offer our clients dependable and expert advice combined with an understanding and knowledge of our practice areas that is focussed upon achieving our client’s goals.

An employee owned business

Unlike many other law firms, Bennett Oakley is owned 100% by its employees. We are the first law firm in Sussex to become employee owned, giving our employee owners a direct stake–and-say in the business, as well as an equal share of profits. Research shows that employee owned businesses are more productive and profitable and have much higher levels of employee and customer satisfaction. Read more about us here.
