Excellence is not an act, but a repeated action” - Aristotle. We call the set of values we live by ‘The KHQ Way’. It is the path that we choose to follow for our fundamental principles, behaviours, relationships, and accountability – to our clients and to each other. With authentic values comes the understanding that they can never be fully mastered; they exist to guide continuous learning and improvement through practice. Understanding that the path is always evolving invites growth and new opportunities, while honouring our values each day transforms them into a way of being. We dare to be different: We are each of us unique. We have fun, learn from the past, are open to change, embrace technology, and try new things. We don’t blindly follow and nor are we slaves to precedent. And we never assume there is just one single path or solution. We live the relationship: We build understanding, walk the path, ask questions, listen, invest the time and honour integrity. We deliver results: We develop a plan, communicate, deliver on commitments, create clarity, exceed expectations, take ownership, use initiative. We don’t cut corners under pressure, settle for “near enough” or over-service. This is The KHQ Way. ### Languages - English - German - Italian - Mandarin - Cantonese ### Memberships - Lawyers Associated Worldwide - First Law International ### Staffing Figures - 5 Directors - 9 Principals - 11 Principal Solicitors - 3 Consultants - 10 Special Counsel - 15 Senior Associates - 7 Associates - 3 Law Graduates - 6 Paralegals
