Our approach
We are known for our client care, expertise, and cost effectiveness. Our strategy is simple - to help clients achieve their goals through excellent service.

Fundamental to this is our highly praised client management programme. This ensures that our services are continually fine-tuned by our clients, and adapted to meet their changing needs.

We focus on dealing with matters quickly, cost-effectively and in the best interests of our clients. Where clients are involved in disputes we can provide a full range of services from mediation, arbitration and adjudication to litigation.

Our clients
Our clients range from international, FTSE and AIM-listed businesses to governments and not-for-profit bodies. We also advise private individuals, trustees and intermediaries.

Our expertise spans a wide range of industries, including media and communications, publishing, leisure, healthcare, pharmacy and medical, education, insurance and reinsurance, construction, real estate and finance.

International
We have the capability to advise on complex international matters. We are a member of two international non-exclusive associations: The Association of European Lawyers and ALFA International (American Law Firm Association).

We are also the first UK-based legal practice to have a dedicated British Virgin Islands service.


We believe in adding value to the legal services we provide.

We offer both ad hoc and regular secondments of our lawyers to work with clients. We also provide internal and external seminars, training, regular legal updates, e-mail alerts, legal helplines, and risk assessment audits.

Our Pro Bono work is also central, and our projects include work for a children's hospice and a law centre as well as individual cases such as a landmark case on workplace age-discrimination. Click here for more information regarding our Corporate Social Responsibility
