About us

JAP:Put simply, we are a law firm. We work with our clients to address any legal needs or issues they may have, helping to simplify and resolve even the most complex of matters. But what makes us truly stand out from other law firms is our sector knowledge, the clients we work with, the quality of advice we provide and the way in which we deliver it. It’s this combination and our strong industry connections that mean we can really add value. They make the difference between simple legal advice and commercial, strategic legal advice.

Sector focus

We are best known for our focus, knowledge and understanding of the Technology, Media and Entertainment sectors. This hasn’t happened by chance. We have been advising clients in these sectors for over 60 years. Sector knowledge isn’t just something we talk about, it’s an integral strand of our strategy and runs throughout the firm. It’s part of our DNA.

An area of specialism perhaps less talked about – mainly because of the discretion it dictates – is the work we do for individuals across their businesses and personal lives. A client recently described our service as “a good old fashioned private client service”. Whilst we would never describe ourselves as “old fashioned”, we do think it perfectly illustrates our strong personal approach as well as our ability to advise clients across all their legal needs.

Our clients

We are proud of the clients we act for and we are proud that they choose to work with us. We work with some of the most creative, talented, entrepreneurial and successful people, businesses and corporates. They range from start-up businesses to multinational companies; early stage entrepreneurs to established industry leaders; and household names to private individuals.

Quality of our advice

Our clients come to us because they know they will get high quality, relevant, clear and concise advice every time. This means more than simple legal advice. It means commercial and strategic advice that is relevant to their business and the sector they work in. Our sector knowledge and relationships with our clients means we can provide this. We don’t over complicate things and make even the most complex of matters seem simple.

Focused on delivery

Understandably our clients expect a high level of client service and care. This isn’t something we take lightly. Our relationships with clients are built on mutual trust and understanding. We listen to our clients. We respond to what they say and we never assume we know what they want or are thinking. We ask.

Our clients tell us they like working with us. This is something we are extremely proud of.
