Ever since our foundation, BA‑HR has shunned mergers in favour of organic growth. This has allowed the attitudes and values at the core of the firm to develop and take root over time. The firm’s corporate culture – what we like to call ‘BA‑HRism’ – embodies shared attitudes towards client service, professional expertise, teamwork and our vision for the future. Our goal is that all BA‑HR’s people should find their work meaningful and stimulating, while our clients find that we deliver consistently, often exceeding their expectations.
Building a strong and clearly defined culture takes long-term effort and continuity. BA‑HRism is based on:
- Integrity, respect for the profession and a passion for the practice of law.
- Teamwork, tolerance and shared ambitions.
- Innovation, a focus on quality and dedication towards each assignment.
- Enthusiasm, sincerity and loyalty to our clients.
- Respect and a professional approach towards counterparties.
Teamwork and fellowship are central to our culture. These in turn reflect a partnership based on the principle of equality. No financial self-interest or other issue can stand in the way of the best-qualified person handling each assignment.
Where cases require contributions from a variety of different people, we endeavour to assemble teams with the right skills and experience to assist as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. We believe that, when major assignments allow us to work together as dedicated teams, we can really make a difference to our clients. Joint efforts inspire us to give something extra, individually and as a firm.
