Partner-led
Every matter, from first call to last, without hand-offs
When your career, your status and your family are the same problem
Most legal problems do not arrive one at a time.
The senior manager pushed out after raising a grievance also holds a visa that depends on the job. The founder going through a divorce also has a company that both sides now want valued. The consultant facing a discrimination claim also has a reputation that will be searched by every future client.
The usual answer is three firms. An employment solicitor who does not handle immigration. An immigration adviser who does not know what the tribunal claim will do to the timeline. A family lawyer who has never seen the shareholders’ agreement. Each one is competent. None of them is looking at the whole thing, and the gaps between them are where clients lose money.
We are a small firm on purpose. Your matter is supervised by a partner from the first call to the last, across every area it touches. Nobody has to be briefed. Nothing falls between teams.
What we do
Eight areas, chosen because they overlap in the same clients’ lives
No residential conveyancing, no road traffic, no personal injury, no wills. Firms that do everything do nothing especially well.
Employment Law
We act for both Employers and the moved employees. Settlement agreements, constructive dismissal, whistleblowing, restrictive covenants, and disputes between directors and partners. We act from talks to agreements.
Equality Act & Discrimination
Discrimination claims are not capped at a year’s pay. If you have been treated differently because of your race, sex, disability, age, religion or belief, the claim is worth what the harm is worth.
Family law
Divorce where there is a business, a good property portfolio, assets in any other country, or a pre or post nuptial agreement somebody now wants to challenge. Children who need to be protected by custody and contact.
Immigration
Global Talent, Innovator Founder, Skilled Worker and sponsor licences. Settlement, citizenship, and refusals that are worth appealing. Refused visit visas, fines or cancelled UKVI sponsor licences.
AI law & Governance
The UK has no AI Act. That does not mean AI is yet unregulated. It means the rules sit in areas like data protection, employment and discrimination law, where the liability actually has always been.
Litigation & Disputes
Commercial and contractual disputes, shareholder and partnership disputes and breakdowns, recovery claims, defending claims, professional negligence, and contentious probate. They need experts.
Defamation & Reputation
Something untrue has been published about you, and it is the first result when anyone searches your name. Protecting your reputation demands a proactive approach. Legal notices and claims.
Commercial Lease & Property
Lease renewals under the 1954 Act, disputes, dilapidations, service charge disputes, lease forfeiture, and break lease notices. We act for landlords and tenants.
Are you a Business?
We offer the best partner-led legal service on a monthly retainer. Protect your business.
Why clients instruct us
Four things that are true about working with us
01
A solicitor handles your matter
Not a paralegal with the partner practically absent. The person you meet at the first meeting is the person who is involved throughout the case. At £400 an hour, you are paying for a partner’s time, so you should get it.
02
We will tell you when a case is not worth running
The advice that costs us a client is the advice worth paying for. If the claim is weak, the settlement on the table is good, or the costs will outrun the outcome, we say so at the first meeting rather than the fourth.
03
We do not do everything
No conveyancing, no road traffic, no personal injury, no wills. We focus exclusively on eight interconnected legal areas. We only manage overlapping fields, ensuring our clients receive seamless, specialized support across the complex intersections of their lives
04
Costs are agreed in writing before we start
A scope, an estimate, and a call when the work is approaching. An invoice should never be a surprise. If one ever is, tell us, and we will put it right. We make it affordable and practical.
