How We Work

Our External In-House Counsel™ model means we truly work as an extension of your team. We are “on the ground” working alongside you to move your business forward in real time. This approach puts your need for continuity first, by building in resource redundancy to every project, while we work to your business timelines.

Our team is structured to give you access to a diverse team of high performing specialists with global experience covering financial services, corporate, commercial and compliance / regulatory matters. The expertise and previous in-house experience allow us to work with a cross section of your team, from CEO to portfolio manager, and across EMEA, Asia Pacific and North America regions.

In addition, our firm is built on the premise of transparency, so we only offer fixed fees and monthly retainers, at highly competitive rates.
