A good reputation is more valuable than money. It takes a lifetime to build a reputation and a single lie to ruin it. Our team are skilled at helping you repair and uphold your reputation, and hold accountable those involved in damaging it.
Divorce isn’t such a tragedy. A tragedy’s staying in an unhappy marriage, teaching your children the wrong thing about love. Our team of experienced practitioners stand ready to assist you through the complexities of such proceedings, which can at times be intimidating, each step of the way. “Nobody ever dies of divorce” – Jennifer Weiner. We help you to navigate this critical and at times traumatic stage in order for you to start the next stage of your life as soon as possible.

Criminal

Our firm has been involved in many high profile criminal cases, setting new legal precedents and developing a strong reputation in the field. We are skilled with defending criminal proceedings at each juncture, up to trials and appeals. Our ability to respond immediately and effectively to clients’ needs is a cornerstone of our firm’s criminal practice.
No individual or company, no matter how large or profitable, is above the law. A company, being a legal person, enjoys rights and incurs liabilities just like a natural person, and requires not only legal representation of the highest standard in contentious proceedings, but also strategic advice from a legal perspective at all times. Our practitioners are skilled in advising companies on every stage of a company’s existence, from advising founders on the first breath of their corporate child at incorporation as a startup, their first employment agreement, and the lease for their first office.
We assist in protecting their intellectual property and brand, their first dispute with vendors or clients, licensing requirements, funding rounds with first investors, listing on the stock exchange, and securing their first syndicated loan. Our expertise extends to guiding companies through rough seas, including restructurings, insolvency, and cross-border litigation.

Wills Probate & Estate

Probate is the legal process of managing the estate of a deceased person. If the deceased has made a Will, executors are usually appointed to administer the estate according to the wishes outlined in the Will. In the absence of a Will, letters of administration are required from the court. Our lawyers are well-versed in advising executors and administrators on the necessary steps in either scenario.
Drawing from specialist knowledge gained through contested matters, we can also help you pre-empt potential disputes among your loved ones by providing guidance on structuring your estate. This ensures the smooth distribution or intergenerational transfer of wealth in line with your wishes, allowing your family to honor your legacy without conflict, fostering unity across generations.
We have a highly experienced and versatile team with multi-disciplinary skills capable of working with you on contentious matters across the spectrum of different fields. Our experience includes shareholder disputes, infringement and piracy, labour, landlord and tenant disputes, investigations, contested probate cases.
