Acufest – Acumen’s Legal Rave- celebrating 10 Years!

ACUMEN BUSINESS LAW has now reached that milestone of a decade and decided to celebrate with a festival style ‘Legal Rave’.
From live bands to wristbands, the party kicked off in the afternoon and celebrations lasted in to the evening.
Despite the date turning out to be the worst day in the 2017 summer calendar with gales and torrential rains, nothing stops the Acumen team on a mission to celebrate and many guests braved the weather and joined them in enjoying the partying. The fantastic music from the live bands Primary Colours and Elem3ntal giving great festival vibes had people smiling and dancing. The drinks were flowing as well as good conversation with great company, with lots of fabulous food being enjoyed, including an amazing zebra cake baked by Acumen’s very own commercial property expert Paula Lee! Of course Zelda our beloved zebra mascot rocked up to join the party. How she travelled from the Hove office and back is quite another story, let’s just say there were some very amused… or bemused passers by.
In 2007 Penina Shepherd founded ACUMEN BUSINESS LAW with a passion to change the way legal services are provided, by being a business law specialist, scrapping the hourly rate and breaking away from the aloof culture by being approachable and accessible. Striving through the toughest recession and countless obstacles, this top 50 innovative law firm (Financial Times) and democratically run has become the award winning unique business law firm that it is today, making the entire team very proud to be a part of.
A lot has happened in 10 years including 8 Acumen Business Conventions, the launch of a Gatwick office, growing year on year, not to mention all the wonderful clients and friends of Acumen made along the way. It was very special to share this milestone with people who have been there from the beginning as well as those who joined along the way, a big thank you to all those who shared the fun and have supported over the years!
