We are Sternberg Reed, one of the largest law firms in Essex and East London, serving individuals and businesses, including local authorities and insurers. We care about you, our clients, and take pride in offering our services efficiently and promptly while providing value for money at all times.

Geoffrey Sternberg began as a sole practitioner in Barking in 1976, and Gordon Reed joined the firm and became a partner in 1980. Thanks to our reputation for quality, we have grown considerably through mergers and now employ over 60 legal specialists, and we have held legal aid contracts since 1994 and the Law Society's Lexcel accreditation since 2010.

We advise on crime, family law, housing, mental health, personal injury and clinical negligence, employment, property, wills and probate, and business services. We offer evening and weekend appointments and a free Saturday walk-in legal clinic, and we work from offices in Barking, Romford, Grays and Canterbury.
