About Us
The practice was founded some 40 years ago and returned to its roots in Central London, moving to 100 Baker Street after many years in Swiss Cottage, in 2010 when we were joined by the members of Austin McKee, a specialist firm of former senior City lawyers.
We believe clients need a lawyer to take legal advice one step further by putting it into their own commercial context.
