Practice Areas

Administrative & public law

Public law comprises several interlinking practice areas that concern relationships between people, government and other public bodies.

Advertising & marketing

A fresh and exciting area of legal practice, specialist lawyers provide copy clearance advice and work with big-brand clients.

Banking & finance

Banking and finance involves many financial products, from bank loans to companies to highly structured financing arrangements across multiple jurisdictions.

Capital markets

Capital markets lawyers work with transactions involving the issue of debt or equity securities to the public or investors.

Charities

Lawyers advising the charitable, not-for-profit, and social enterprise sector cover a vast area of legal ground.

Clinical negligence

Clinical or medical negligence lawyers advise in relation to instances of injury or death arising from incorrect or sub-standard medical treatment or diagnosis.

Commercial property/real estate

Commercial property lawyers work on a wide range of transactions including offices, retail developments and infrastructure projects.

Company & commercial

Commercial lawyers operate at the nexus where law meets business, facilitating revenue growth and managing risk.

Competition & EU law

Competition and regulatory work includes merger control, regulatory and court proceedings, issues arising from sector-specific regulation and utility procurement issues.

Construction & engineering

Contentious construction work involves the resolution of disputes while non-contentious work involves drafting and negotiating contracts and advising on projects.

Corporate finance/mergers & acquisitions

Corporate M&A involves the combining of companies or assets through mergers, where two companies combine to form a new entity, or acquisitions, where one company takes over another.

Corporate tax

Virtually all commercial transactions have tax implications. Tax is thus an important practice area for any major law firm.

Defamation/reputation management

In this area of legal practice, clients generally fall into two categories: the rich or famous and the media.

Commercial litigators represent and advise commercial clients when disputes arise from joint venture projects, civil fraud, commercial and banking transactions, corporate governance, financial services regulation and professional negligence.

Employment, pensions & incentives

Employment lawyers work across all areas of employment law, including handling discrimination complaints, staff restructuring and whistleblowing issues.

Energy & natural resources

The energy sector is an important part of the legal landscape and is making more headlines than ever before.

Environment

Issues such as biodiversity loss, climate change, the demand for global sustainability and the need for alternative energy sources make environmental laws more important than ever.

Financial services

Following the UK’s exit from the European Union, the covid-19 pandemic and various financial scandals, there is always lots going on in this area.

Fraud

This is a fascinating field of practice suited to those with a nose for forensic detail.

Housing/landlord & tenant

Relationships between the owners and occupiers of properties, both residential and commercial, can be fraught with problems.

Immigration

Immigration lawyers deal with all legal matters relating to immigration and nationality.

Insolvency/restructuring

Restructuring and insolvency lawyers are necessary when a company, individual or other organisation is in financial difficulties.

Insurance/reinsurance

Insurance (and reinsurance – the insurance of insurers) is an integral part of commercial activity throughout the world.

Intellectual property

Intellectual property is an umbrella term for a variety of different rights which protect intellectual creations, such as inventions, brands, designs, and literary and artistic works.
