Begin a conversation

One channel, read by the partnership. Tell us what you are considering and what you need to know, and you will receive a direct answer.

This form is the firm’s only enquiry channel.

We publish no direct telephone numbers, email addresses or office addresses. That is deliberate. A single channel means every enquiry enters the same register, is subject to the same conflicts and due diligence checks, and is answered by someone with the authority to answer it. It also means nothing is lost to an individual inbox.

The same route applies to investment enquiries, partnership proposals, approaches from government and public bodies, and media requests. Please use the enquiry type below so that it reaches the right people.

If someone has contacted you claiming to represent this firm and you want to confirm it, please say so in your enquiry. We will verify it directly.


Four stages, in this order.

We accept a limited number of mandates at any one time, so not every enquiry results in an engagement. Every enquiry does receive an answer.
  1. 01

    Acknowledgement

    Every enquiry is logged and acknowledged. Our practice is to acknowledge within five working days, including where the answer is that we are not the right firm for the matter.

  2. 02

    Initial review

    The enquiry is read by a member of the partnership rather than by an assistant. We look at what is being proposed, what stage it has reached and whether we can add something that is not already available to you.

  3. 03

    Conflicts and due diligence

    Before any substantive engagement we run a conflicts check against current and recent mandates, and the client due diligence required by our own standards and by applicable financial crime obligations. This applies to every counterparty without exception.

  4. 04

    Response

    You will receive a direct answer: an invitation to a first discussion, a referral, or a decline with the reason for it. We aim to give a substantive response within fifteen working days of acknowledgement, and we will tell you if a matter needs longer.


Tell us what you are working on.

Type of enquiry
Sectors of interest — optional

Select any that apply. This only helps us route the enquiry to the right people; it does not narrow what we can discuss.

Please include the nature of the opportunity or question, the stage it has reached, and any timeline you are working to.

Please do not include confidential or commercially sensitive material in a first enquiry.
