HFW Commercial Question

Hi all,

This is the last question for the HFW Vac scheme application:

Using your existing knowledge of HFW, please suggest one way in which we might develop/ grow the firm, or enhance our legal service to clients. (350 words)

Since the firm have opened many offices in the last few years, I'd be inclined to say that they should continue this trend. However, obviously COVID-19 means it's not ideal to open anywhere.

Please could people offer me some advice on what enhancing legal services to clients might mean for a sector-based firm?

Hi I was wondering how you got on with this question. I can't see any replies on the forum. I am applying for the TC. Any suggestions or ideas would be much appreciated
