Legal Advice for Governance, Compliance and Strategy
We provide legal advice and document support to help organisations make clear, defensible decisions in complex regulatory environments. From policy development and safeguarding to equality, data protection, and contract risk, we offer strategic input rooted in experience and tailored to your organisational context.
We’ll explore your needs and help you define the right scope of legal input—without obligation.
Practical, Targeted Legal Support
We support organisations that need legal advice they can trust—without the cost, delay, or formality of full-service law firms. Our clients include sport governing bodies, charities, non-profits, public interest entities, and regulated service providers.
We advise on the real-world legal questions that arise in governance, service delivery, and compliance. Our aim is to help you act with confidence, knowing you’ve considered your duties, your risks, and the expectations of regulators, funders and stakeholders.
We do not litigate or provide personal legal services. Instead, we support organisations in navigating legal frameworks with clarity and foresight.
What We Help With
Our legal advisory services are wide-ranging but always focused on your goals and constraints. Key areas of work include:
- Governance design and legal structures
- Drafting and reviewing internal policies and procedures
- Data protection, information governance and privacy impact assessments
- Equality law compliance and inclusive policy development
- Safeguarding frameworks and safer practice reviews
- Contract review and risk assessment (supplier, funder, venue, etc.)
- Grant terms and public funding obligations
- Legal duties of directors, trustees, and committee members
- Complaints, disputes, and internal appeal mechanisms
- Working with regulators, ombudsmen, or commissioners
Where a matter requires a solicitor or external counsel, we’ll tell you—and we’re happy to work alongside them to support preparation, policy, or organisational coordination.
How We Work
We tailor our approach to your working environment. That might mean:
- Reviewing documents in context and identifying key risks
- Drafting clean, usable templates for your teams
- Advising board members or senior staff on governance options
- Providing written advice on specific scenarios or queries
- Supporting policy review cycles in line with legal and practical expectations
- Helping prepare communications or internal briefings following a legal change
You’ll receive clear advice in plain English, not just academic commentary or risk disclaimers. If something is unclear or contentious, we’ll say so—and help you decide how to proceed.
Not a Law Firm. Deliberately.
We don’t offer litigation services, consumer advice, or employment representation. What we offer is legal insight that strengthens your governance, improves your decision-making, and makes you more resilient to challenge.
We’re insured, experienced, and careful about where our remit ends. We won’t pretend to cover something we don’t. And we don’t compete with law firms – we often complement them.
