Bennett Oakley Solicitors are very proud to announce we have evolved into a business that is 100% owned by our employees. We transitioned to this exciting time early 2022 and are one of a very small group of law firms to be employee owned in England and Wales and one of the first to become 100% employee owned.
What is an Employee Owned Business?
An Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) aims to give staff more of a sense of belonging, accountability and to be involved in its future plans and opportunities.
Research shows employee ownership drives better business performance with increased employee commitment, engagement, innovation and efficiency.
Our staff make us who we are and this model will be vital in growing a trusted and strong law firm.
How will this effect our clients?
This change will mean that all our clients should expect to receive a high level of client care and advice that you can rely on. With the knowledge that our staff our engaged in the business creating a committed, collaborative team of experts.
Our staff are now stakeholders in the firm and this creates a unique environment where clients will have direct access to business owners. Our clients stand to benefit from this unique relationship as staff are more committed and pride themselves as business owners and not just as employees.
