Hayley Cross — Associate Partner
I specialise in advising entrepreneurs and high-growth companies, and those that invest in them. From day-to-day commercial and corporate advice to managing and advising on the investment rounds that provide innovators and entrepreneurs with the springboard to accelerate their growth, I provide pragmatic and commercial advice in a way that is relevant to the business I am advising and their way of working. I am passionate about working with entrepreneurs and their investors and strongly believe in building long-term relationships through which I am seen as an extension of their internal teams and expertise. Whilst I have a wealth of experience advising across various sectors, I predominantly advise technology businesses, as well as FMCG companies and a growing number of clients within the life sciences sector. With a deep understanding of the ever-evolving London market and a growing network within this ecosystem, I am well positioned to offer the legal and business advice required by my clients, as well as make introductions to other advisors and investors when needed. I am mum to my 2 children (who are growing up far too quickly), Governor and Safeguarding lead at my local primary school, rugby coach for my son's rugby team and chief holiday-planner at home. I am passionate about wellbeing at work and I am the Wellbeing Lead at Mishcon, working closely with our Diversity & Wellbeing Manager, CPO and Management Team on ensuring wellbeing is baked into everything we do. I am also a qualified Mental Health first-aider.
