About us

Stevens & Bolton is where technical excellence meets personal service.

From our headquarters in Guildford, we work with an extensive client base of major international organisations, FTSE companies, owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals.

Whoever you are, you’ll get tailored and considered advice delivered by people you know and like.
This is the hallmark of our approach.

Connection

We invest time in understanding your goals and preferences, legal issues and market context. Building a connection with clients matters to us.

Pragmatism

Our experienced and approachable lawyers simplify complex issues. We provide clear advice that informs pragmatic decision making. 

Expertise

We help clients access the right expertise at the right time. Our scale and cross-practice capabilities all under one roof means we can be agile and responsive.

Shared values

Let’s make it happen is our promise to clients, colleagues and our community. It means unambiguous legal advice that helps you achieve your goals. It means a proactive and supportive culture where great careers are made. It means progress on social and environmental issues.

Our shared values help us make this vision a reality.
Empathy

We step into the shoes of clients and colleagues to meet their needs and deliver successful outcomes.

Excellence

We are experts in our fields who take pride in doing a great job for clients.

Straightforward

We build trusted relationships with clients and colleagues based on honesty and clarity.

Together

We bring the full strength of our firm to clients, working collaboratively and supporting each other wholeheartedly.

International

We help you access legal advice all over the world. Whatever advice you need and wherever you need it, we provide or source it for you.

A large proportion of our clients are multinational, based overseas or have international business interests.

Clients often require legal advice on cross-border matters. We work on these matters together with selected foreign law firms that we like and who share our high standards of service and value for money.

Our independence is our strength. We are not constrained by exclusive relationships or international branch offices. Instead we hand-pick legal partners in other jurisdictions based on client need, expertise and appropriate price point.

We often act as lead counsel, coordinating legal advice from around the world under a single engagement letter with you. Or you can deal direct with our recommended firms – whichever approach works best for you.
