HMG is Oxfordshire's oldest law firm, with a well-documented heritage dating back almost 200 years. The initials HMG are a contraction of the name Herbert Mallam Gowers, the title under which the firm practiced following a merger in 1995. This name represented the two main strands of old Oxford practices, Thomas Mallam & Reeves and Herbert & Gowers.
Some years ago the partners at HMG LAW resolved to help support various artistic enterprises within the City of Oxford. Stemming from our very long association with Oxford we wanted to help in areas where funding has been a real problem for local Arts organisations, recognising that without them, Oxford would be a duller and less exciting place in which to work and live.
We're very proud of the achievements of our teams and individuals alike. We encourage our staff to become experts in their fields, associating with the most active entities in their areas of law. We're incredibly proud that our private client team won the prestigious award of Solicitor Firm of the Year (Regional) for 2019.
HMG Law has a great history and a long-standing presence in Oxfordshire. We aim to employ the best people so that we can continue to provide the best service to our clients. At HMG we are keen to provide frameworks for learning and development and career progression opportunities for our staff, in both fee-earning and support roles.
During the 2021 lockdown, we continue to be open for business. However, until measures have changed, we will only be able to meet clients face-to-face where absolutely necessary. Meetings will be conducted either by phone or via video conferencing. Our office is in the centre of Oxford. We are a short walk from the train station.

Saw the sign offering notary services and dropped in at reception. Very pleasant lady couldn't give me info I needed about notary services, but took my contact details on behalf of the associate who handles that to get in touch so that he could explain and make arrangements. That was a month ago. No call back. I'm not in the city centre often (avoid because of parking/transport hassles.)

My business has been working with HMG for many years. First they handled family estate business, and then some actual business matters. They have always been friendly, welcoming, but more importantly incredibly professional, they just get the job done. If you're looking for a solicitor in Oxford, they are amazing.

The firm is a very organised place with a professional image both in its marketing and office presentations.
I have approached them for some notary work and have, after some time been able to set an appointment to get what I need done.
I have had to wait a week for feedback regarding an appointment and cost arrangement as they are incredibly busy seeing as Notary work is on the rise in the oxford area.
Staff were friendly and professional.
