A few questions you may have before beginning a working relationship.
Can I ask to speak with a particular adviser?
Yes. Mention your preferred adviser in the enquiry form. The first conversation then confirms the relevant expertise and the right person to lead.
What if I do not know who to speak with?
Start with the situation. We will suggest the adviser whose experience fits your matter best.
Can my situation involve different practice areas?
Often it does. One adviser leads your matter and brings in colleagues where their perspective helps.
