With the exception of family and criminal law (where we are able to refer you to experienced and respected law firms) this is a full service law firm where your matter will be dealt with personally by a highly experienced lawyer.
Our costs are reasonable and can be based on the time spent on your matter and the level of experience of the lawyer dealing with it. If you prefer we can negotiate a fixed fee.
We have an extensive network of experienced colleagues who are available to us to consult on an as needed basis in practice areas where he quires their expertise.

We provide:

1. An in-house-counsel service; and
2. A family office service.

IN-HOUSE-COUNSEL SERVICE

Many large companies have the benefit of in-house-counsel but small to medium size companies, that need them most, cannot afford them. We offer a middle path; at-call or as-needed in-house-counsel at an affordable cost.
Our In-house-Counsel service provides clients with the benefit of a highly qualified lawyer on-demand to deal with important legal issues as they arise.
Our in-house Counsel service can include:

• a dedicated legal adviser who will build a relationship with you and understand your business and risk profile;
• access to a full suite of legal advice across our range of practice areas and experts in specialist fields;
• access to support resources, such as accounting, financial planning, precedents and research facilities;
• attendance at board meetings;
• company secretarial services;
• contract drafting and negotiations;
• day-to-day legal affairs;
• involvement in strategic risk assessment;
• managing legal resources, litigation and outside legal specialists, barristers, patent attorneys or international lawyers; and
• on-call advice provided to senior executives and management, HR managers, sales and marketing teams, procurement and other business personnel.

A FAMILY OFFICE SERVICE

There is a growing trend for families to subcontract legal, accounting and financial services to law firms, accounting firms and banks. We offer a proactive family office service providing legal, accounting and financial advice and assistance in conjunction with trusted accountants and financial planners. This service relieves the burden of keeping control of these areas whilst endeavoring to run a busy family business. Often assistance is required to read and interpret and advise the legal effect of legal documents.
