There is no disputing the leading position that SJ Berwin has within the venture capital market Chambers and Partners 2010
 
This 'exceptionally proactive team' has flourished on account of its loyal client base. One client explained: 'we like working with the SJ Berwin lawyers' Chambers and Partners 2009

Through acting for these investors, we have developed deep industry knowledge and a network that enables us to help organisations of all sizes to finance and grow their businesses.
