Security specialist law firm Proelium Law has recently opened a central London office. The new office is in Old Broad Street, right in the heart of the city.
The relatively new law-firm, formed as an ‘ABS’ (Alternative Business Structure), was founded by Richard Stephens and Adrian Powell. The firm offers an alternative to traditional law firms and possesses deep experience of working in high-risk jurisdictions and with high-risk professions, whilst providing the ability to carry out enhanced levels of investigative work.
Partner of Proelium Law, Richard Stephens, served as a member of the British Forces (Royal Marines) for 23 years, during which time he led commando units on operations, was a Whitehall-based strategic planner for UK government and commanded a special forces regiment, concurrently engaged with priority tasks on 6 continents.
The legal partner in Proelium Law, Adrian Powell, has extensive experience of working on legal issues in high risk jurisdictions with governments and commercial organisations. Since 2006 he has spent the majority of his time in Iraq and Afghanistan and latterly worked on a significant project focusing on Syria.
The firm has recently entered into a co-operation agreement with Top 100 Law Firm Harrison Clark Rickerbys. The venture will combine Proelium Law’s experience of working in high-risk jurisdictions, with the manpower at the 400 strong Harrison Clark Rickerbys, on specific legal projects.
Commenting on the new office Partner Adrian Powell said,
‘As a start-up law-firm we are excited to be opening our first office in central London. Proelium Law has been welcomed with open-arms by businesses across the capital, particularly Insurance syndicates, who are attracted by our experiencing in gaining ‘ground-truth’ on issues and investigating problems in high-risk jurisdictions, therefore it was only right that we should open our first office here in the heart of the city. Despite the London address, Proelium will continue to work with clients across the UK and we look forward to expanding into Dubai in the very near future.’
