At Kepler Wolf, we help our clients grow to a size where their legal requirements may require support from a larger team of of lawyers or lawyers with different areas of expertise to what we offer. We are confident enough to know when it is in our clients’ best interests for their project to have the support of a larger team or with lawyers who have different areas of expertise in addition to our own instead of trying to be an ‘all service’ firm. In addition, we have actively chosen not to undertake transaction work that is covered by the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Regulations, which means we need to be able to sign post you to a firm that can support you on those types of transactions..

For this reason, we’ve built an alliance with national law firm Acuity Law so that we can continue to support our clients when they need more than we can offer.

Our alliance includes that we can either introduce our client to the Acuity Law team for you to decide to engage and work with that firm directly and without any ongoing involvement from us, or our own lawyers can if necessary, transfer over and advise within the same team at Acuity Law on a consultancy basis to that firm. This means that you will maintain the benefit of a relationship with the individual lawyer from Kepler Wolf but with that lawyer being a part of the the Acuity Law team. In both scenarios, you will be a client of Acuity Law for the particular project and their terms of engagement will apply.

Our lawyers can join Acuity Law as individual consultant lawyers (on an individual fee sharing basis) so that they can work within the Acuity Law team when the client project is best served by our alliance partner.

As examples of the areas that our alliance partner can support Kepler Wolf clients on:

• Employee incentive schemes

• Employment Tribunal (acting for businesses)

• Investment Agreements

• Commercial Property

• Dispute Resolution

• Corporate M&A

• Regulatory

• Restructuring
