WE BRING A LOT OF
SMART, PROFESSIONAL AND EXPERIENCE
Commercial and business law is about the day to day operational legal needs of a corporate client. It’s the core of your business, and servicing it also happens to be the core of ours.
Our clients range from multinationals to tiny start-ups, covering industries. Some clients have in house legal teams, and we act as an extension of their team. Others use us as their in house general counsel or lawyers. We look after a large proportion of our clients on a retainer basis – we unashamedly love this, because it frees us and them up to focus our attention on learning the business and becoming integrated as part of the business process.
- What does day to day mean?
It means drafting, reviewing and negotiating a billion contracts of infinite variety; setting you up with a manageable, plain language set of standard contracts that are best of breed and are tailored to your commercial risk profile; advising on the legal aspects of big and small commercial decisions; ensuring you comply with all the laws and regulations that govern your business; and pointing out and helping you manage your legal risks well before they bite you. - Further, Corporate law is mostly about deals.
IPOs, MBOs, LBOs, takeovers, mergers, trade sales, joint ventures, capital raising and all the more exotic terms investment bankers keep coming up with to bamboozle the market. Complex structuring and corporate governance advice is often needed to support the deals.Our corporate, business and commercial lawyers / team are fast, responsive, pragmatic, smart and delightful. You’ll wonder how you survived before you met them. - Referring to litigation and non-litigation,
we come in as soon as you smell trouble. You get clear, concise advice on where you stand; we’ll engage direct negotiations, mediation or any other alternative dispute resolution method we think might resolve the dispute; if arbitration is the go, we are all over that; if litigation has to be, then we have the firepower to take on the fight.
Our team is extremely deep in experience. We know how the system works and how to use it to your best advantage.
