Our journey
1998
Two partners, one practice area
The firm opened as a commercial contracts practice advising manufacturers and their suppliers across the county.
2006
Employment work added
Clients asked us to handle the disputes their growth created, so we brought in an employment partner rather than refer the work out.
2014
Private client department
Wills, probate and succession planning became a department in their own right, largely for the families behind our business clients.
2023
Twenty-five years, four practice areas
We remain deliberately small, partner-led, and known for turning down work that belongs with someone else.
