Areas of practice
The work spans commercial, private and contentious matters. If your question sits between two areas, we say so and staff it accordingly.
Corporate and commercial
Company matters, shareholder arrangements, commercial contracts and the documents that sit around a transaction.
Disputes
Civil and commercial disputes, from a letter before action through negotiation, and representation where a claim has to be pursued or defended.
Private clients
Family, inheritance, wills and personal affairs. We set out the options and the consequences before a decision is taken.
Property and regulatory
Property transactions, leasing, and regulatory or compliance questions that need a clear written view.
A firm that stays with the matter
Clients come with a contract to sign, a dispute that has started, a property to transfer, or a family matter that needs a clear view. They need the position, the risk, and whether the file they already have is enough.
- A named lawyer on every matter
- Clear scope, timeline and fees before work begins
- Advice, negotiation, filing and representation
Contact
Meetings are by appointment. Many first conversations are held by video.
Why clients stay
Plain advice
You hear the strength of the position and the weakness. We do not dress up a thin case.
One lawyer
You deal with the same person from the first call to the close. No hand-off to an anonymous handler.
A written plan
Scope, documents and deadlines are set out before work begins. You know what is needed, and when.
How a matter proceeds
We listen and say whether we can take the matter. The conversation is without obligation.
We list the documents, the deadlines and what is missing. You receive a written plan and a fee.
We advise, negotiate, draft or file, and keep you informed at each step.
When the matter ends we confirm the outcome and what, if anything, remains open.
What clients say they value
“A straight answer on whether the claim was worth filing. We did not proceed, and that was the right call.”
“The same lawyer from the first call to the signed agreement. No retelling the facts to someone new.”
“A written plan before any fee was incurred. We knew the steps and the documents.”
The people you will meet
A small partnership. You know who has your matter.
