Diversity at Charles Russell Speechlys:

We are an international law firm with a focus on private capital at the intersection of personal, family and business. We are based in London, Guildford and Cheltenham in the UK with international offices in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.

Our ability to understand people makes us who we are. We work together to build deep and trusted relationships that deliver meaningful value to our clients. We do this with empathy, attention and clarity. No jargon, no attitude. We know what matters.

We are committed to building and upholding an inclusive work environment where everyone can bring their whole self to work, equal opportunities are available to all, a culture of mutual respect is maintained, and differences are welcomed and celebrated.

This commitment is driven from the top by our dedicated Future Firm Group (FFG), co-chaired by our Managing Partner and Senior Partner. The FFG also includes our Directors of Human Resources, Partner for Responsible Business and our Head of DEI, as well as senior representatives from each of our internal DEI networks.
