Why ignition
We Are Different
Now, more than ever.
We are passionate self-starters. We care deeply about innovation and entrepreneurship, as drivers of positive change in society. We were born out of there being a disconnect between what many agile, fast moving entrepreneurial clients wanted, and more traditional ways of working. Some approaches didn’t perhaps accommodate the many brilliant, independently-minded lawyers and operational colleagues, who wanted to work differently.
So, on 1st January 2015, we set up a law firm from scratch; to serve entrepreneurial clients, and to create a flexible and hugely fulfilling and caring place to work. Ignition was born; our mission began. It’s been a heck of a ride ever since!
Our team of around 50 colleagues (and many more friends and partners) have helped many thousands of clients.
Together, we are creating an ecosystem of people, working practices, and knowledge that is transforming the value we are able to deliver to our clients.
Every day is different, and we have been hugely fortunate to enjoy the wonderful journeys and bonds with our clients, partners and colleagues.
This is an incredibly demanding mission, and career choice, but we wake up doing what we love and wouldn’t change a thing.
