Financial Services

Clients in the financial services sector tell us that they value our in-depth knowledge of issues that are unique to their industry as well as the close working relationships we develop with them. 

We work with most of the UK's clearing banks as well as a wide range of international banks and mortgage lenders and advise on the full spectrum of legal services from Corporate Lending and Acquisition Finance through to Business Turnaround and Recoveries. 

In its review of Innovative Lawyers 2009, the Financial Times commended TLT for innovation in the Financial Services sector. The Financial Times previously recognised TLT as one of Europe's most innovative law firms and highly commended TLT's organisation of a client relationship activity for one of its major Financial Services clients.
