Our principles
What our clients can expect.
Acting upstream
Prevention is often the best protection. We favour involvement before signing, in order to identify risks before they turn into disputes.
Understanding the economics
We do not treat a legal question in isolation: we look at the project as a whole to identify what could jeopardise it.
Confidentiality
Every matter is handled in strict compliance with the lawyer’s duty of professional secrecy.
Coordination
Where the transaction requires it, we work with the client’s in-house counsel, foreign law firms, banks, auditors and financial advisers.
Negotiated solutions first
Where the client’s interests allow, we seek an amicable outcome before a dispute durably jeopardises the project.
