Welcome from Chris Saul

A very warm welcome to the Slaughter and May website!

We have just completed a redesign of the site to make it more interesting, modern and informative.

We aim to give you a lively and immediate impression of Slaughter and May and the work we do, the approach we bring to legal and business challenges and the spirit of the team here.

I am absolutely delighted to be the new Senior Partner and, as I look forward, my key objectives will be:

• to continue nurturing the genuinely special nature of the firm. We combine a collegiate working style with an ambition to be the best at looking after clients. At the firm we bring a creative, quality and business-aware approach to our work, whatever the level of complexity. I am keen to develop this unique mix of working style and skills
• to carry on, foster and develop our working relationships with leading law firms across the world - our "Best Friends" approach - which is critical to our international strategy. It gives our clients access to top-notch advice worldwide and our trainees and associates the chance to spend time abroad and to meet colleagues from other firms
• to make sure that we maintain a sense of perspective - our clients will be best served if an element of warmth and humour is in the mix

I hope you enjoy the website!

Chris Saul 
Senior Partner
