Helix Law

Helix has grown to become the largest specialist litigation firm in the South East outside London. Our team are especially experienced in commercial, property and construction litigation, successfully resolving complex commercial and property disputes often against City and silver circle firms by positioning clients to litigate successfully and then embarking on negotiation, mediation, adjudication, or litigation.

We build lasting relationships and combine legal expertise with a pragmatic, plain-English approach. Our goal is to be trusted advisers throughout our clients’ commercial journeys.

With an entrepreneurial mindset and a track record of innovation, we deliver accessible, responsive service that sets us apart. Our Google reviews reflect this commitment.

We act for a wide range of clients - from individuals to PLCs - across disputes of all sizes. Regardless of the opponent, we remain approachable, determined, and focused on results.

Key facts:

• A team of specialist litigation solicitors who have grown rapidly and are now one of, if not the, largest specialist litigation law firms in the South East of England. We have litigated assets worth over £350m in the last 12 months.

• The Partners and Directors of Helix Law have decades of experience resolving disputes via negotiation, mediation, adjudication and litigation. We are also entrepreneurs.

• We approach disputes we are working on with commercial acumen and entrepreneurial spirit, treating every dispute as though its our own.

• We have a proven track record for innovation in the delivery of legal services. The technical side is mostly hidden from view but the results can be seen clearly in our ability to be contactable, approachable and successful in a way that many law firms find difficult to replicate. We have more 5* Google Reviews than any law firm we are aware of (over 400+).

• Our success is based on fostering relationships with our clients and everyone we deal with. We have the strength to fight and the strength to co-operate and to negotiate. This remains at the heart of what we do, and who we are. We take a long-term view. We are, of course, litigation solicitors. We are fluent in the language of the law, but focus on efficient dispute resolution in plain English. From the outset we want to be our clients’ trusted adviser and to stay with them and grow with them throughout their commercial lives.

• We act for individuals, companies incorporated onshore and offshore, investors, PLCs and construction companies across the country and beyond in disputes ranging from small to very significant (tens of millions in dispute). We litigate against individuals, high street firms, and city law firms. We have extensive experience across a broad range of challenges.

• In the context where the business and commercial environment is changing rapidly and we are embracing those changes and are leading them.
