Agile and practical
Sphere Legal is a thriving virtual law firm which works closely with fast-growing clients needing extensive UK legal support, wherever they might be.
We advise clients across all sectors and focus on commercial, corporate and employment law, with a special interest in technology.
If you are looking for a legal team that will be wholly focussed on your success and by your side as you navigate difficult situations, then we are the right choice for you.
We care more about your outcome and our relationship with you than maximising your legal spend.
Sphere Legal Limited (formerly known as Co-Counsel Limited) announced its new name in October 2024, chosen by our team to represent the firm’s excellence in the legal sphere in which it operates and the close relations we form with our clients, operating as a world within their world.
