Tech-focused law firm set for expansion with second Yorkshire office

A Yorkshire tech-focused law firm has celebrated its first anniversary by opening a second office.

Holden Smith, based in Denby Dale, has announced the launch of a new office in the Crossgates area of Leeds.

Founded in 2019 by James Smith, David Bancroft and Jamie Megson, Holden Smith specialises in technology-led legal services.

The firm, which has grown from three to 20 in just over a year, plans to expand further by creating 15 new jobs over the next 12 months.

James Smith commented: “We started Holden Smith because we wanted to create a law firm that used the latest tech to create a much better experience for clients by speeding up transactions and giving them quick and easy access to their matter.

“There was a much-needed shift towards placing instant communication with the client at the centre of every transaction, something which hasn’t always been the case in the industry and in our collective experience.

“The opening of our Leeds office is a major step in the ongoing growth of Holden Smith.

“David and I both previously worked in Leeds for over ten years and have built strong networks across the city, so when we reached capacity in our current office, it was a natural decision to base our second office there.”
