About Us
We are experts at helping people and companies resolve their disputes. We make complex legal cases simple with comprehensive legal knowledge, a thorough understanding of the facts of your case, and advising you on the best strategy to resolve your dispute. Instead of working with a big team, you will work with small, expert teams. That means having access to senior lawyers at all critical stages of your dispute.
Because we only act on disputes it also means we almost never have conflicts. We can act against large institutions. It also means we do not have commercial conflicts. When other lawyers refer us work it is on the very clear basis that we do nothing but disputes, and we do not want to do anything other than disputes.
Sharp
On all files we understand that it is critical to have a deep understanding of your case and the law. It is only by doing so is it possible to give the best advice. We can then formulate a strategy that works towards achieving your goals. We are not interested in needless litigation and seek to resolve disputes as promptly as possible, to your best advantage. But sometimes your best advantage does require litigation and we tell you clearly when that is the case.
Agile
The traditional large law firm model is highly leveraged. That requires a partner to supervise multiple lawyers with various levels of experience. That tends to be slow, cumbersome and expensive. By contrast we run lean, client-focussed teams with experienced lawyers. That means that you will usually work directly with senior lawyers who will be hands on at all stages. That enables us to be responsive, decisive and to leverage circumstances to your best advantage.
Additionally, we can usually complete a conflict check in less than an hour which means your dispute can be up and running nearly immediately which provides a great advantage to our clients with time-sensitive needs.
Fierce
We are court lawyers and advocates. When we act for you we relentlessly advance your goals. We frequently represent clients in the High Court and have acted on appeals to both the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. From the moment we start acting, we are fearlessly committed to you and your case. This means looking at disputes as if they would proceed to trial. By doing this the claims are thoroughly researched, carefully analysed, and presented in the best way they can be. We think critically to identify weaknesses in your position and act decisively to remedy them. This approach puts you at an advantage for the entire process.
