How we do things differently

Attracting the best legal professionals: We take great pride in our unique value proposition underpinned by our remote operating model. Our team of senior solicitors are recruited from the top 100 firms across the UK or large international businesses. Their industry insight and expertise will ensure your commercial needs are taken care of regardless of the size and complexity of your construction project.

Responsive to your needs: Unlike traditional law firms, our solicitors have little to no administrative, marketing or sales responsibilities (as this is taken care of by the marketing and sales teams in our business). This allows the solicitors to focus entirely on your legal requirements.

Competitive pricing: Our price plans represent a fraction of the cost of most traditional law firms and include a single rate for all solicitors (partner and non-partner levels). This, coupled with their high seniority means that our team can complete the work faster, more cost effectively and with greater commercial and strategic direction than many of our competitors.

Working collaboratively: Our team are experienced in corporate governance matters for a range of related industries that often intersect with construction legal advice. The breadth of knowledge available within the firm means that you can have confidence we will be able to deal with your project, regardless of how complex it is.
