Welcome to the Autumn edition of <strong>Comment</strong> magazine, written for valued<br />

clients, contacts and friends of Coffin Mew.<br />

2016 has been quite a year, and one that has seen major change following the Brexit<br />

vote in the summer and the Trump election a few weeks back. In these uncertain<br />

times it is important to have strong and successful advisers to lead you through the<br />

challenges and opportunities that arise.<br />

It has been an exciting year for Coffin Mew. We have been ranked in The Business<br />

<strong>Magazine</strong>’s Solent SME 100 Growth List for the first time, and named as the 8th best<br />

managed law firm in the UK by The Lawyer magazine. Both are a testament to the hard<br />

work we have put into developing our strategy, our work with clients, our brand across<br />

the south east, and reflect the ambitious plans we have for the future.<br />

Investment in technology has continued to be a high priority for Coffin Mew, and<br />

in 2016 we launched our new website. This has reinforced the firm’s identity whilst<br />

creating a robust platform from which to communicate with our contacts and clients.<br />

Colleagues across the firm have achieved major successes in our CSR activities<br />

this year, raising over £12,000 for local charity Naomi House and Jacksplace. We have<br />

also joined forces with Marwell’s Zany Zebras art installation in Southampton. Our<br />

Zany Zebra ZZ! Top, created by artist Jenny Leonard, was one of 48 colourful artworks<br />

auctioned in October to raise nearly £90,000.<br />

We are proud that in all of our locations our clients are creating hundreds of new<br />

homes, new businesses and jobs. We are thrilled to be part of their story, supporting<br />

their success. On behalf of partners and staff here at Coffin Mew, here’s to another<br />

successful year, and good luck for 2017.<br />
