Virtual Law – probably the best law firm in the world

…Well, that certainly was the intention! When I started up Virtual Law in April 2007, I wanted to create a new style of law firm that fully embraced modern technology and thereby avoided those costs typically associated with traditional ‘bricks and mortar’ law firms.  At the same time I wanted the firm to be able to offer a full service to clients; an exceptional service combined with high quality advice.  Most importantly, all at a reasonable and commercial cost. I’m pleased we have now made it!

Exceptional service and value

With ex-partners of well known city firms and senior associates from the likes of Clifford Chance, Linklaters and DLA Piper, our clients are continually surprised by the value proposition of Virtual Law. We really do offer partner level expertise (many of our consultants are ex-partners of City law firms or in-house counsel for blue-chip organisations) at the rates charged by some city firms for their trainees – unbelievable but true!

‘Our Free Business Legal Health Check’

This is one of products that I’m most proud of because it really gives us a chance to understand a client’s business in a relaxed environment (the clock isn’t running!).  This legal health check normally takes the form of a one to two hour face to face meeting where we discuss and assess a client’s contractual, corporate governance and compliance needs.   If you are interested in a free business legal health check, or have any questions about our services, then please email me at o.brice@virtuallaw.eu or call me on +44 (0)330 100 032
