What Bexley Beaumont does

Bexley Beaumont is a UK boutique law firm operating under a fee-share model, founded in 2019 by Karen Bexley (CEO) and Anna Beaumont. As of late 2025, the firm employs 120 staff including 72 partners, making it one of the fastest-growing large fee-share firms in the UK according to Codex Edge and one of only 38 UK law firms to achieve B-Corp certification. The firm's core model combines traditional law firm delivery with consultancy-style autonomy for lawyers — there is no lock-up, no billable-hour targets, and no formal hierarchy.

The firm delivers legal services across 14 practice areas including Employment, Immigration, Probate and Estate Administration, Finance Litigation, Corporate and Commercial, Real Estate (transactions, litigation, planning and environmental), Family Law, Construction, Private Wealth, Regulatory, Social Housing and Regeneration, Intellectual Property, Tax Dispute Resolution, and Equine and Agricultural Dispute Resolution. Recent additions include a Tax Dispute Resolution division (November 2025), London IP team expansion (October 2025), and the Equine and Agricultural Dispute Resolution practice (May 2026). Pricing is transparent and primarily fixed-fee or capped-fee for standardised matters (employment tribunal, immigration applications, probate), with hourly rates ranging from £200 to £500 plus VAT for higher-complexity work.

The firm operates from registered offices in Manchester and London, with additional client meeting rooms in Leeds, Birmingham, Cardiff, and Bristol, serving enterprise clients, SMEs, and high-net-worth individuals. Marketing is driven by thought leadership content, PR coverage in legal and regional business media, and active participation in legal industry awards. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the firm is founder-owned with no external PE or VC backing.
