Silva Lex Ltd is a legal advisory and consultancy company. It is not a firm of solicitors and is not regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. We are clear about work that requires a regulated firm and refer you on, or work alongside one, where it does — see what is out of scope.
We carry £2 million of professional indemnity insurance, appropriate to the advisory work we undertake, giving you protection and peace of mind. Further detail is available on request.
We are insured to advise on commercial contracts across jurisdictions, so we can help with international agreements as well as UK ones.
Scope
We are a different kind of legal service, not an SRA-regulated firm, so there are things that are never in scope. We set them out plainly, including reserved legal work, decisions on your behalf, and conflicts of interest.
