Selected Experience

Intelligence, timing and strategy.

Shaping corporate trajectories

We disrupted an acquisition strategy before a company's IPO, materially affecting the position of its chief executive.

Developing shareholder intelligence

We obtained actionable human intelligence from within the shareholder group of a major company.

Revealing concealed activity

Our work has identified unauthorised electronic surveillance and exposed clandestine illegal activity within a corporate group.

Securing assets in motion

We froze key real-estate assets at the point they were being registered for sale, preserving leverage when timing was critical.

Accessing critical financial intelligence

We lawfully obtained internal banking records relating to major shareholders, including transaction, account and signatory information.

Orchestrating change at senior level

Strategic communications contributed to a shareholder-driven CEO dismissal, while investigative work escalated a local dispute to cabinet level.

Innovating in legal strategy

In one recent litigation, the use of AI reduced legal costs by approximately 70%.
