What is in a name?

The Trial of Penenden Heath in 1076 represented a pivotal moment in English legal history. According to the article, this event “solidified the continuation of Anglo-Saxon law subsequent to the Norman Conquest, and fostered the notion of precedent.”

The organization emphasizes its commitment to maintaining these historical principles. The firm applies “Anglo-American jurisprudential concepts to Central and Eastern Europe in the context of those continental civil law traditions.”

The name selection reflects the firm’s philosophy. Rather than choosing from numerous alternatives, they deliberately selected Penenden to represent their approach to delivering “efficient and cost effective delivery of high quality legal services.”

The firm acknowledges the historical distance from the original 1076 trial but underscores the ongoing relevance of that landmark legal event to their current practice and values.
