Virtual Insight Day

Welcome to Addleshaw Goddard. We are a London headquartered, international, full-service law firm that consistently delivers high-quality outcomes for our clients globally.

We have been advising clients for 250 years, and today we support over 5000 of the world's most respected organisations. We help them in over 50 areas of business law, across more than 100 countries. And while the opportunities and challenges they bring us vary, we solve each in a uniquely AG way.

Our clients enjoy working with us, we deliver a high-quality experience across everything we do, and we are known for award-winning innovation - all of which we harness to bring impact to clients.

Our Values

From the work we do to the culture we foster and the partnerships we form, every last part of Addleshaw Goddard is driven by three core values: quality, imagination, and impact. We welcome everyone, support people to achieve their full potential, and always seek smart ways to have a positive impact – for our clients, colleagues, and communities around the world.

The smartest route for our clients

We act for clients whatever the scale of their requirements. Last year we acted for over 5000 clients including over 300 companies listed on the stock market of 10 countries. We have also advised over half the FTSE 100 companies in the last 3 years, including Associated British Foods, SSE, GlaxoSmithKline, HSBC and British Land. Our business is about strong client relationships built on successful delivery across national and international markets.

The range and scale of our work is compelling and encompasses high value strategic advice to the everyday. It means we are able to attract talented, like-minded individuals who love what they do, are committed to our client's success, and strive to build valued partnerships through our collective energy and expertise.

Diversity, Equality and Inclusion at Addleshaw Goddard

At Addleshaw Goddard, we recognise the importance of nurturing an inclusive culture to help us attract, retain and enable our people to be the best they can be.

In 2020 we introduced a new, Board approved inclusion strategy, which included:

• Allocating senior leadership roles across 5 key strands of inclusion (Disability, Ethnicity, Gender, LGBTQ+ and Social Mobility), including senior partners and business services leads.
• The setting of targets for ethnicity and gender across our business.
• The setting of short-, medium- and long-term goals to keep us accountable.

Since 2020 we have kept our strategy under review to ensure that it remains ambitious and reflects the needs of our people.  And hope that this strategic approach will create greater equality within our firm and foster a greater sense of belonging amongst our people.

Now, our commitment to DE&I remains resolute across our business and is underpinned by the firm's 2030 Vision, which clearly articulates the firm's continued focus on investing in our Culture.  Our current objectives include:

• To improve the diversity by attracting the best talent, irrespective of background or protected characteristic.
• To nurture a culture that centres on equity, inclusion and mutual respect so that everyone feels as though they belong and can be the best they can be.
• To be a firm known for its flexibility, inclusivity and innovation when it comes to DE&I in the legal sector.

A core part of our DE&I programme has been the investment into our employee networks which now have over 700 members and include:

• OpenAG (LGBTQ+)
• AG Embrace (Ethnicity)
• The Vine (Gender)
• Ability Forum (Disability and Carers)
• Social Mobility Champions (Social Mobility)
• Jewish Network
• Christian Network
• Hindu, Sikh and Jain Network
• Muslim Network
