Acuity Law relocates growing Swansea practice to the heart of the city’s business district  

Leading South Wales-headquartered law firm Acuity Law has announced the relocation of its Swansea office. 

Hopping across the water from the historic Exchange Building on Cambrian Place to the thoroughly modern Ethos on King’s Road, the move sees Acuity Law deepening its connections to Swansea’s thriving business hub. 

Ethos is a striking, glass-fronted building in the heart of Swansea’s business community, with a prominent position on the waterfront, on the edge of Swansea City Centre. The new location reflects Acuity’s increasing centrality to the Swansea commercial marketplace and ambitions to showcase the notable work the firm is doing for Swansea-based clients.  

The office houses an impressive meeting space that maximises the building’s waterfront location, as well as generous open-plan office space to accommodate both senior and junior colleagues, and on-site café facilities.  

Hugh Hitchcock, the lead Acuity partner in the Swansea office said: 

“Swansea is absolutely key to our growth in Wales. Having worked in the area for the best part of 20 years, I know first-hand what a growing and thriving community full of strong, dynamic businesses it is. I’m excited by the expansion in the team and the opportunities for us as a law firm to further assist our commercial clients, but also by the general growth in the local economy.” 

He added: “As we expand with the move to Ethos, alongside the quality and experience of the talented lawyers in the team, I genuinely believe we can provide a service to rival that of any of the larger firms across the UK. That is best exemplified by the complex and high-profile work we are already undertaking.” 

Nick Founds from Glanmor Chartered Surveyors adds: “Ethos is a prestigious riverside office development, and it is a great new home for Acuity Law. Ethos now has 100% occupancy and this recent letting showcases the continued high demand for grade A office space in prime Swansea locations.” 

Acuity Law established its Swansea presence in 2017, with the arrival of Carmarthen-born Hugh Hitchcock, who came up through the litigation ranks at a London-based media firm representing celebrity and household-name clients. Most recently, Hugh was named as one of The Lawyer’s 2024 “Hot 100”.   

The new office in Swansea is the latest in a string of announcements from Acuity Law, which has bases in Cardiff, Bristol, Birmingham, London, Leeds and Liverpool, as well as Swansea.
