Consistently high service across the board

THB Legal was initially recognised for our strength in criminal law and regulatory work, but in the years since we have developed strong teams across all areas of law to serve our clients best. 

• Commercial Law: From commercial leases to mergers and acquisitions, we support our commercial clients to facilitate reliable business growth

• Conveyancing: Whether buying or selling a property, clients choose us to assist them and ensure the conveyancing process is as seamless as possible

• Criminal Law: We work across all areas of the Criminal Justice System, and have particular experience in defending major criminal investigations and proceedings. 

• Family Law: Our Family and Childcare lawyers deal with the entirety of complex and sensitive issues that arise from relationship breakdowns and social service investigations, bringing an empathetic approach that puts vulnerable individuals first

• Landlord & Tenant: From extending leases to collective enfranchisement, we support both sides of the landlord/tenant relationship to reach mutually beneficial outcomes

• Professional Misconduct: We support professionals from all backgrounds, and are one of the few firms nationally to act for the Police Federation of England for officers facing criminal and disciplinary allegations

• Regulatory: Our clients stay compliant with strategic, high-level support to defend against prosecutions and protect their reputation with ongoing specialist support. We also conduct prosecution work on behalf of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) 

• Wills, Trusts & Probate: We help you to plan with confidence, protecting your family and legacy with expert estate planning solicitors who walk you through the entire process one step at a time
• Settlement Agreements: Supporting workers by helping them to understand what their settlement means, how to achieve the best terms, and what to do next 

A constantly growing network

THB Legal has consistently grown since our founding in 2001, including three recent acquisitions that have expanded the capabilities of our in-house teams: 

Bawtrees joined our practice in September 2025, bringing a history of serving local families and businesses in areas like property, Wills, and dispute resolution. 

Hurrell Solicitors joined in March 2026, expanding our presence across Southend-on-Sea and the wider Essex region.  

Beavis Partnership LLP joined us in June 2018, bringing expertise across Essex in commercial law, Wills, and conveyancing. This partnership also allowed us to broaden our offering into landlord and tenant matters. 

If you’d be interested in a similar partnership, please contact our Head Office for more information on how we can enable a seamless transition.
