- Our story
Our story
gunnercooke is a challenger law firm. It challenges the way that legal services are delivered to clients. It challenges the way that lawyers balance their lives. It challenges the way our communities are served by those of us more fortunate. Most of all, it gives lives back to our lawyers and enables them to design their life as they wish to live it – which we believe enables them to deliver a brilliant service to their clients. And it works. Today we are one of the UK’s leading commercial law firms, as measured by our clients, with a Net Promoter Score of on average +84.
