Today marks the sixth anniversary since we opened the doors of BDBF.

We started with the four name partners, one other qualified lawyer and a practice manager, all of whom are still in the business.

As of today, we have seven lawyers as partners and seven associates as well as our fantastic practice team.

We have retained our position in the top tier for acting for senior executives in Chambers & Partners legal directory for the fourth year running cited as a 'renowned boutique employment law firm' acting for senior executives.

The Legal 500 likewise has once again ranked us as top tier for our senior executive practice and ranked us also for our work for employers.

We have also achieved a listing as one of the The Times Best Law Firms in 2019 (nationally) as rated by our peers.

Today is also a momentous day because Emma Sell, our practice manager, who was with us before we even opened our doors becomes our first non-lawyer partner.

Emma has run our facilities and practice team since before day 1 and we simply would not be where we are without her.

I cannot tell you how proud we are of what we have achieved and how humbled we are by the support we have had from you to get here.

We look forward to working with you and reaching even greater heights over the next six years.
