“Fundamentally, it’s about people — and it always is about people.” - John Hutchinson
On today’s Legally Speaking Podcast, I’m delighted to be joined by John Hutchinson. John is the managing partner of Broadfield UK, helping build a fast-growing international law firm around technology, client service, and pragmatic pricing. With a background in corporate law, private equity, and law-firm leadership, he sees modern legal services becoming more integrated with clients and less reliant on traditional hourly-rate models. His approach to growth centers on hiring entrepreneurial, resilient people; moving decisively; investing in technology without losing professional judgment; and maintaining trust, integrity, and a strong client-focused culture as the firm expands internationally.
So why should you be listening in?
You can hear Rob and John discussing:
- Embracing AI and Technology to Transform Legal Services
- Building Client-Centred Relationships Through Greater Collaboration
- Moving Beyond the Billable Hour Towards Value-Based Pricing
- Scaling Internationally While Maintaining Culture and Quality
- Attracting Entrepreneurial Talent Through Innovation and Opportunity.
