Featured Practice

Corporate & Commercial Law

Advising businesses of all sizes on the full spectrum of commercial legal needs — from incorporation and shareholder agreements to complex cross-border transactions.

Our corporate team brings decades of collective experience to transactions large and small. We act for founder-led startups navigating their first equity round, and established enterprises managing multi-jurisdictional acquisitions. Areas of depth include: mergers & acquisitions, joint ventures, corporate restructuring, commercial contracts, IP licensing, and regulatory compliance. We pride ourselves on being commercially minded — understanding that legal advice must serve your business objectives, not impede them.

Family & Matrimonial Law

Navigating family law matters requires sensitivity alongside legal acuity. We handle divorce and separation proceedings, financial remedy applications, child arrangement orders, and pre-nuptial agreements. Our approach prioritises resolution wherever possible, keeping court proceedings as a last resort — reducing both cost and emotional impact for our clients.

Property & Conveyancing

From straightforward residential purchases to complex commercial real estate transactions, our property team ensures every deal completes with clarity and confidence. Services span freehold and leasehold conveyancing, commercial property acquisition, landlord and tenant disputes, development finance, and planning matters.

Employment Law

We advise both employers and employees across all areas of employment law. For businesses: drafting contracts and handbooks, managing redundancy processes, advising on TUPE, defending tribunal claims. For individuals: unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, settlement agreements, discrimination claims, and whistleblowing cases.

Dispute Resolution & Litigation

When disputes arise, decisive and well-considered action makes the difference. Our litigation team represents clients in the High Court, Court of Appeal, and specialist tribunals. We are equally adept at alternative dispute resolution — mediation, arbitration, and negotiation — having helped clients reach favourable settlements that avoid the cost and uncertainty of trial.
