Some matters call for legal expertise beyond a firm’s usual practice areas. Planning, construction, environmental, regulatory and licensing issues can be highly technical, commercially significant and closely connected to wider property, corporate or dispute related work.
Our team posses specialist knowledge and skills and can work collaboratively with other firms to help provide a complete service to their clients, without disrupting the trusted relationships they have already established.
We offer flexible support tailored to the needs of your firm, your client and the matter at hand.
Our expertise delivered through your firm
Where you wish to remain the sole point of contact, we can provide specialist advice directly to your legal team. You can then incorporate our analysis and recommendations into the wider advice you give to your client.
This approach enables your firm to retain ownership of the matter while benefiting from experienced support in areas that may sit outside your core offering. We can assist with a specific question or an ongoing matter that may require detailed specialist input.
Our advice is bespoke practical, commercially focused and prepared with the wider client objective in mind.
Direct support as part of your advisory team
In some circumstances, it may be more effective for us to advise the client directly on the specialist elements of a matter. In those cases, we work alongside your firm as a trusted professional partner, with clear boundaries agreed from the outset.
Your firm remains the client’s principal adviser, and our involvement is limited to the specific area in which our expertise is required. We respect the importance of your existing relationship and will work openly and collaboratively throughout the matter.
A seamless service for your clients
Our aim is to not only provide technical answers, we help firms manage complex or unusual matters with a level of expertise that they need immediate access to, giving their clients access to the right expertise at the right time.
By working with our team, you can broaden the support available to your clients without needing to develop every specialist capability internally. You also retain the continuity, oversight and commercial understanding that your client values.
Whether you require behind-the-scenes input or direct specialist involvement, we will agree a clear structure and working arrangement at the outset.
