Clarkslegal Celebrating a Century of Service to the Community and to Business
For one hundred years the name Clark has been central to the commercial and civic life of the Thames Valley as one of the area’s leading solicitors firms. Over time the practice that started out as Arthur F. Clark renamed itself Clarks Solicitors in the 1970s to become the Clarkslegal LLP (Reading, England) of today. But at every stage core Clark themes emerge as constants - dedication to client relationships, outstanding service and the impetus to be ‘ahead of the game’.
It has been a story of extraordinary growth. For almost half its life Clarks had just a single partner – the founder Arthur F. Clark - but since the end of the Second World War there has been steady expansion so that today the firm has 15 partners and a total team of about 100. There are another 80 freelance consultants across the law firm and its two separate specialist human resources and environmental scientific subsidiary consultancies.
Our founding partner could never have foreseen how the firm would grow or how the legal profession would change so much within a century, but this is a brief account of how it all happened.
