Clients are drawn from across the commercial sector, FTSE 100 companies, the insurance industry, professional services, local authorities and other public sector organisations. It is these clients that help drive BLM's ambition to be a leader in its field, working in partnership with businesses by providing a seamless service to help them achieve their goals. The firm's commitment and determination has led to its description in independent legal directories and client surveys as a firm that has its finger on the 'pulse of the market'.

BLM provides an extensive range of legal services in almost 50 areas of law, grouped broadly into nine market sectors: construction & property; corporate risks; healthcare; insurance & indemnity; leisure; public sector; retail; technology, media & telecoms; and transport.

In addition to receiving an excellent legal service, of increasing importance to our clients is that we keep them informed of policy, regulatory and legislative consultations and assist them in participating in the debate on reform proposals. We take an early and proactive approach which means we can work closely with clients so they understand the likely outcomes and impacts on their businesses and can plan accordingly.
