As a specialised law firm, we draw on our own experiences of not only working in the UK, but also our time spent in all of the world’s hot spots over the past 30 years. Notwithstanding providing our legal services in the UK, since starting the firm, we have sent our lawyers, consultants and advisors to Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Lebanon, Kurdistan, Nepal and Yemen to name but a few. Plus the usual more pleasant places.
Convenient
We come to you
Unusually, we prefer to travel to you or on your behalf. Equally, you can meet us at our offices. Whether in the UK or elsewhere, we enjoy problem solving in difficult places and are comfortable in a suit and tie with or without a set of body armour. We also embrace technology and working over long distances we often use multi-media software to confidentially discuss your case. Whatever your needs are to obtain the right advice and assistance, we have a solution.
Unique
A law firm like no other
Whilst a commercial law firm specialising in high-risk and complex jurisdictions is distinctive enough, we understand that the world is ever-evolving and have invested in the future.
