Our ethos is driven by the values of being:
Our expert lawyers are highly experienced in providing proactive, assertive legal advice with the focus on achieving intelligent, commercial solutions for our clients.
Our Partners are listed in The Legal 500 and Chambers as leading individuals and iLaw is ranked as a leading firm for litigation and technology.
In 2020 we were shortlisted for the Boutique Law Firm of the Year Award in both the Law Society Excellence Awards and the British Legal Awards run by Legal Week.
One of the advantages of using iLaw is that we guarantee partner level contact. Many of our solicitors are recognised as leaders in their fields, and have:
We draw on all this experience to give you the best possible service. It helps us to identify the key issues quickly and address them efficiently, commercially and cost effectively. We understand the language of our clients and their trading partners, and supply intelligent solutions.
That experience equips us to provide high quality services, and to address the needs of our clients. Aspects of that quality include:
Our structure and flexible working methods enable us to provide excellent value for money. You will have direct access to us, and you will not generally need to deal with junior solicitors or secretaries. This means that duplication of time and effort, and associated cost increases, will be avoided. We recognise that what we do for clients has a value to the client, and we will always work with the client to identify the most cost-effective solutions for their needs, which includes looking at the way we charge.
We are highly flexible in the way we charge. We are able to agree risk-sharing arrangements such as success-based fees or fixed fees. We can also offer discounted day rates and different forms of retainer payment, depending on what arrangement is best suited to the client’s requirements.
Our practice is built around a set of core values which include being:
In conjunction with the top 50 Dutch firm DVAN, we established the International Commercial Law Alliance (ICLA) in 2006.
ICLA is a growing network of overseas commercial law firms which enables us to call upon trusted legal advisers in key international jurisdictions. We ensure that all members of the Alliance apply the same exacting quality measures that we do, and that their charging rates are in line with ours, so that clients can rely on receiving a consistent service.
