What the team is known for
Vantage Intelligence is an international intelligence boutique based in London, New York and Dubai. The firm predominantly serves business leaders, high net worth individuals, family offices, litigation lawyers, financial institutions and established corporations. Vantage focuses on delivering strategic and actionable insight through sophisticated research, inquiry and human source intelligence gathering.
Strengths
"Vantage have shown themselves to be by far the most accurate firm we've worked with, and they punch above their weight compared to larger intelligence outfits and deliver outstanding service. Accurate, reliable data in litigation against well-funded adversaries is extremely important, and Vantage provides a level of quality that others do not."
"Most firms in this space are dominated by former government services men, which always results in a charged and aggressive approach. Almost uniquely, Vantage is led and predominantly staffed by women. They provide an elegant and creative approach which, in my experience, delivers much better and faster results than railroading the problem."
Work highlights
Vantage has provided litigation support to an international industrial conglomerate operating throughout Middle Eastern and Eastern European countries whose senior executives believe that a former business associate has engineered baseless criminal proceedings. Vantage is working with the client to investigate the professional associations and background of the former business associate in order to demonstrate that the subject has previously engineered extrajudicial proceedings against business partners in countries with weak rule-of-law systems, as a form of leverage in pursuit of business transactions.
Notable practitioners
Gretchen King and Masha Shvetsova are co-founders of Vantage and act as key contacts.
