This year we have the privilege to celebrate our 40th anniversary. Since opening our doors in 1986, our focus has been simple. We want to provide clear, dependable legal support that helps people and businesses make confident decisions.
Over the past four decades, we have grown alongside the Basingstoke community. From helping families navigate important life moments to working closely with businesses as they navigated opportunities and change.
We are proud of the relationships we have built and the trust our clients place in us.
A celebration of people and partnership
Our anniversary is, above all, a celebration of the people who have shaped our story. We appreciate every colleague, client and community partner. Working together, we have achieved more than we could have imagined in 1986.
Partner and Board Member, Jack Gardener shared:
“Our priority is to do what is right for our clients. Reaching 40 years is a humbling reminder of the confidence people continue to place in us. We are grateful for the support of our community and excited for what lies ahead.”
Max Hope, Partner and Board Member added:
“Over the years, the firm has supported thousands of organisations as they navigated growth and change. From emerging start-ups to well-established employers, Phillips Law has helped businesses make informed decisions with clarity and confidence.”
A year of community-focused activity
Throughout 2026, we will be hosting a number of events and initiatives to mark the anniversary. These will include business insight sessions, opportunities to support local charities and activities designed to bring the community together. More details will be shared soon.
Looking to the future
While this anniversary gives us a moment to reflect, our focus remains forward-looking. We are committed to investing in our people, enhancing our services and continuing to provide legal guidance that is clear, human and grounded in real experience.
We look forward to celebrating this milestone with our clients, colleagues and community partners over the coming year.
