Along with other firms in our area Irwin Mitchell has its foundation in providing Criminal Defence Services and expanded and diversified beyond the scope of our peers from our origins in South Yorkshire.
Irwin Mitchell has evolved into a nationally recognised brand with a reputation for providing the highest quality legal services from personal injury to medical and professional negligence in the more personal legal services aspects to private wealth, commercial and civil litigation, and real estate on a more business-related footing.
Our unique ability to offer clients a full array of legal services working closely with other departments where necessary sets the team apart from many of our competitors in this field.
We have a history of dealing with the most prestigious, high profile and technically complicated financial crime and fraud cases. The importance and the quality of cases attracted by the department over the years is matched by very few. We attract a full range of criminal work focussing on serious crime and organised crime groups. We have also seen a marked upturn in the number of regulatory matters dealt with. The team also has sound experience of advising clients on issues such as health and safety and environmental concerns.
