Hodge Jones & Allen

Hodge Jones & Allen (HJA) is a London-based law firm founded in 1977 by Henry Hodge, Peter Jones, and Patrick Allen. It provides personal legal services across a broad range of practice areas, with a stated commitment to championing the rights of the individual and challenging injustice. The firm was established with a focus on legal aid work, and civil liberties and human rights remain central to its mission. Its work includes high-profile civil and criminal litigation.

The firm's practice covers personal injury, medical negligence, asbestos and workplace illness, family law, wills and probate, dispute resolution, property disputes, criminal defence, housing law, and civil liberties and human rights. Clients are predominantly individuals rather than corporate entities, and the caseload is weighted towards contentious work.

HJA is consistently ranked in The Legal 500 and Chambers, the two principal UK legal directories. The firm has offices in London and Liverpool and serves clients across the United Kingdom. It has been described as one of the country's most progressive law firms, with a reputation for "doing things differently" and a long-standing emphasis on social justice.
