There are a number of legal and paralegal staff as well as administrative staff, all of whom ensure that the firm’s work is and remains of the highest possible quality. The firm frequently collaborates on specific projects with accomplished lawyers within and outside the United Kingdom where the individuals act as consultants. Andrews Solicitors also belongs to the Immigration Law Practitioners Association; JCWI; Legal Aid Practitioners Group and Housing Law Practitioners Association.

The firm is aware that there is a growing need for organisations in overseas countries to seek advice in relation to various aspects of English Law.

Further, the firm offers services in association with overseas lawyers in providing advice on English Law as required. Andrews Solicitors has overseas associated offices in Abuja and Lagos in Nigeria as well as New York and Los Angeles.
