Our Services
Internal Governance & Processes
Excellence begins from within. We work with your board of directors and senior management to ensure that your internal governance and management processes reach the highest standards.
Company Secretarial Support
A company secretary plays a vital role in ensuring that a business complies with legal, regulatory, and governance requirements. We can fulfil or support compliance with the key responsibilities of a company secretary to ensure smooth operation of your administration, including compliance with the Companies Act 2006, management of statutory filings with Companies House and mandated record-keeping.
Contract & Commercial Risk Management
Commercial activity in construction, engineering and manufacturing is governed by contracts, which define the rights, obligations, and liabilities of all parties involved. Poorly drafted or misunderstood contract terms can lead to disputes, financial losses, or legal action. We are expert in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts to minimize risk and liabilities.
Regulatory Compliance Consulting
Ensuring our client businesses adhere to industry laws and regulations.
Project Governance & Advisory
Providing strategic legal and commercial insights for projects.
Financial & Payment Oversight
We work with your in-house finance team and external accounting and taxation advisers to oversee the legal aspects of your payment processes to maintain cash flow and financial stability. Working as an integral part of your team, we actively manage payment structures, debt recovery, and monitor financial obligations within contractual relationships.
Dispute Resolution & Claims Management
Preventing and managing legal disputes efficiently. Common legal consequences include:
- Breach of contract: where a party fails to meet its contractual obligations, legal remedies such as damages, termination, or specific performance will apply.
- Payment disputes: Late payments, underpayments, or non-payment lead to disrupted cashflow, legal claims and financial strain on businesses.
- Liability for defects: Contractors and engineers may be legally responsible for construction defects, requiring costly remediation or compensation.
Litigation, Arbitration & Adjudication Management
Where Dispute Resolution and Claims Management does not bring a solution, as independent Barristers, we are able to take on the management of more formal types of claims whether in court or otherwise. These services include advice, drafting and representation of your business on a direct basis with no need for the involvement of other lawyers on your behalf.
