About Us

The practice was established in 2005 with the aim of providing first class legal advice and training services; primarily to businesses, charities and public sector clients. The practice prides itself on personal customer service; cost - efficient fee structures, and speed of turnaround. There is a focus on the importance of commerciality in the provision of legal advice, and the pragmatic approach to solving clients’ legal issues.

The Principal, Peter Millican, previously spent 21 years working in the financial services sector, the last 17 of which were spent working in-house in Group Legal for a company now listed in the FTSE 100 Index. In addition he has spent time during his training contract at one of the region's foremost law firms. He therefore brings with him a great deal of legal and business experience.

We visit clients’ businesses to gain a firm understanding and appreciation of what they do. We feel that this enables the firm to provide better quality advice and to build firm client relationships.

The vision of the firm is to encourage clients to be proactive in their approach to all legal matters, whether employment-related advice - contracts of employment; partnership or shareholder agreements; or terms and conditions of business. We believe that it is important to ensure that clients have a sound legal business infrastructure in place and to see the longer-term value of investing in legal advice and documentation.

As well as the provision of legal advice and documentation drafting, the firm delivers a wide-range of training courses and workshops.
