Responsible Business

We use the power of law to support people, planet, clients and communities

You can tell a lot about Freeths by our emphasis on doing the right thing. It runs through everything we do, from recycling coffee cups to fighting for environmental rights in the courts.

In our line of work, we all too often see instances of inequity, injustice and rights denied. That’s why we are committed to using the power of law to create a better future for people, planet, clients and communities.

Responsible Business Report

We’re proud to have compiled and launched our first-ever Responsible Business Report.

This comprehensive document pulls together all of our key ESG initiatives and commitments in one place, giving everyone, from colleagues and clients, to prospects and suppliers, a clear picture of the great work we’re already involved in.
