Our story

Eliot and John first worked together in a lawyer / client capacity back in 2006 shortly before the introduction of the Legal Services Act 2007 which allowed non-lawyers to own and invest in law firms. Their working relationship continued through to 2014 when they first discussed the idea of setting up a new law firm which would allow lawyers to operate more flexibly and for greater reward through a consultancy model which was becoming increasingly popular within the sector. Eliot’s experience in Corporate and Commercial Law coupled with John’s experience of providing professional consultants the platform from which to operate in other sectors, resulted in a business plan being established. With investment secured from trusted individuals in 2016, the business became a reality. nexa law was incorporated and SRA approval gained.

From the outset, nexa law was intended to be a step away from the conventional ‘new model’ law firms operating in the market by ensuring that fixed overheads would be minimised in order to pass as much of the earnings back to the consultant lawyer, as a result we believe we are best-in-class regarding our consultant commission rates. With a focus on providing the highest quality of service to both the consultant and their clients, nexa law aims to be the partner of choice for those lawyers wishing to make the move towards a more flexible and lucrative future.
