Stone King Gears-up for Growth with Conscious Communications Appointment

Leading national law firm, Stone King, has appointed Conscious Communications to handle public relations and business development activities across the East of England.  The appointment comes as the firm enters a new phase of regional expansion from its Cambridge hub, building its local profile and leveraging extensive national credentials in business, education and charity.

Located in the centre of Cambridge, Stone King has a well-established portfolio of regional clients and the Conscious Communications’ team’s remit will be to support the firm’s growth in these areas, with a particular focus on the business sector and SMEs.

Robert Meakin, Partner at Stone King, said: “We have a very strong team in Cambridge with a reputation for delivering invaluable counsel and support for private and maintained education providers and charities, in particular.  Our priority focus for our next phase of strategic development is the expansion of our work with small and medium sized businesses, and start-ups.  Our legal team offers an invaluable mix of experience of working with expanding businesses, advising on issues relating to acquisition, shareholdings, financing, and so on.”

The Stone King Cambridge business team has particular experience in working for SMEs and provides pragmatic advice in corporate, commercial property, construction, employment and HR, IP and IT, dispute resolution, and transport law.

Commenting on the appointment of Conscious Communications, Meakin said: “Conscious Communications has an ethical and professional approach to the services it provides which matches our own.  The team also has broad ranging marketing and public relations experience in the education, charity and general business sectors and a strong network of collaborative partners.  So, we are delighted that we will be working with them to build our profile across the region.”

Alison Taylor, Managing Director of Conscious Communications, added: “We are excited to be working with a company that shares our industry interests and business values.  The legal sector is very competitive and it can be difficult for firms to establish their positioning but Stone King already has a reputation and track record to be proud of, and our work will focus on expanding this into new markets.”
