Protecting Your Business Interests with Expertise and Transparency
About Us
At Olephant Solicitors, we are a City-based law firm specialising in commercial litigation and employment law. Situated in the heart of London's legal district, a stone's throw away from the High Court, we have earned a strong reputation for high-value and complex commercial claims, both in the UK and offshore. With clients from all over the UK and across the globe, we work predominantly to protect the business interests of high net worth individuals, as well as companies.
Our expertise covers a wide range of issues including disputes involving contract, fraud, minority shareholders, partnerships, IP, and employment issues. As trusted business advisors, our skill set has developed to enable us to advise our clients on non-contentious matters in these areas as well. Our focus is to provide our clients with exceptional legal solutions. This is reflected in our commitment to deploying the best team, with the right specialisation for each case.
Our History
Established in 2002, Olephant is the brainchild of founding partner Jan Mugerwa. With a wealth of experience acting on commercial litigation matters, Jan set about combining these skills with a business model and structure that puts the client at the heart of what we do. We know that the litigation process can be daunting, complex, and challenging. Our aim is to give our clients the best chance of a successful outcome. This stems from a belief that it is the relationship with our clients that matters. They have the reassurance that their needs and objectives are being met.
Our Approach
We have seen steady organic growth over the last 16 years. In addition to the development of our commercial expertise, we have also developed a strong employment law offering. The blend of people who work with us allows us to build up quickly a comprehensive view of a client's case. As a niche London-based boutique law firm, our portfolio includes a number of high-profile cases. With a strong skill set, there is little that we are unable to take on.
Our Values
We understand that our people are instrumental to our business success. Without them, we could not service our clients in the professional way that we do. We believe in realism and transparency, which reap strong client relationships. We select the appropriate talent within the firm to take on the complexities of our clients' issues. We strive for the simplicity that so often follows complexity! We bring honesty and transparency to every case, ensuring that our clients have a clear and realistic understanding of their case from the outset.
