Staff Summer Party: Celebrating the big 4-0
Staff Summer Party: Celebrating the big 4-0

6 July 2026

On Friday evening, colleagues from across Phillips Law came together to mark a very special milestone, our 40th anniversary.

The event was held at the beautiful Oakley Hall in Basingstoke. Over 150 colleagues and guests from the Basingstoke, Farnborough and Yateley  offices joined us for an evening of celebration, laughter and reflection.

We started the night with a Champagne reception in the gardens, where everyone caught up over drinks and enjoyed some garden games before moving into the marquee for dinner.

For the first time, we filled the entire marquee. This was a wonderful reminder of how much Phillips Law has grown, it was a proud moment that reflected the firm’s success over the past four decades.

As we celebrated the big 4-0, it was impossible not to think back to how far we have come since opening our doors in 1986. Much has changed, but our commitment to providing exceptional legal advice and building strong client relationships remains the same.

It was fantastic to see colleagues from all three offices come together.  Our people are at the heart of everything we do, and it was fantastic to celebrate the talent (and the teams’ loved ones) that make Phillips Law what it is today. It was an unforgettable time, and we hope that all the guests had as much fun as we did.

Looking to the future, we are excited about what lies ahead. We want to thank everyone who has been part of our journey: colleagues, clients and business partners, and our local community.
