Hanne & Co celebrated its re-launch at a private function in the Slug and Lettuce in Clapham Junction on Tuesday 21st June 2011. Members of the judiciary, other legal professionals and most importantly local businesses and charities attended the event. Representatives from all our departments, Family Law, Conveyancing, Child Care Law, Wills Probate and Trusts, Criminal Law and Employment Law were there to promote the firm and catch up with old friends and related professionals.
The evening was a roaring success and a fantastic way for local businesses to celebrate the re-launch as well as network with each other. Hanne & Co, with the generosity of its guests, raised funds for their nominated Charity, Wandsworth Bereavement.
Despite the fact that we have been in the heart of Clapham Junction for decades, we are sometimes easy to miss. Whilst we are on the main junction, we occupy the upper floors of a property with no street presence so it was great to meet local business people and point out exactly where we are. Of course, we chose the Slug and Lettuce as the venue as we are directly opposite.
A lot has changed in the world since Hanne & Co opened its doors back in 1898. But there are two challenges which businesses faced back then which are just as relevant today; tough economic conditions, and uncertainty over changing employment legislation. With the coalition announcing a review of employment laws, Hanne & Co are offering a helping hand to local businesses as part of their re-launch celebration; a free employment law “health check” to all the businesses invited. Given the success of this promotion, Hanne & Co is extending the offer until the end of August 2011.
