Welcome to Burkill Govier (and to our many existing clients, a warm welcome back).
Business people demand excellent legal advice. Our lawyers’ backgrounds and training have been in leading international law firms, to bring high quality specialist advice to a wide range of clients doing business in the South East.
Our philosophy is to recruit and promote top legal talent based on successful results, client service and overall contribution to the practice. We believe in providing our clients with the best possible result and helping you to achieve your goals, whilst at the same time building long term relationships.
We believe we have one of the pre-eminent property teams in Surrey, and to be sought after across all our practice areas.
The majority of our directors have practised together for the vast majority of their professional careers. This is a very cohesive force and has built a strong team spirit, both within the practice, and between our lawyers and our clients.
Our clients have included, as representative examples, the following:-
- Major commercial and residential property developers
- Regional accounting firms
- Internet/web companies and designers
- Telecommunication companies
- Advertising agencies
- Healthcare providers
- A major leisure group
- Large, midsize and independent banks
- Local and public authorities
- A major supermarket chain
- Pension funds and other institutional lenders
- Retailers, and retail chains
- International manufacturing and industrial concerns
- Overseas incorporations and investors
- Music publishing companies
- Sporting celebrities
- Embassy staff
- CEO’s and independent professionals and other entrepreneurs
We are strongly focussed on developing small to medium sized businesses. This niche focus allows us to pick and choose only senior lawyers with experience gained from many of the top City practices, and to offer that talent to our clients without the overhead of many larger and more general firms. Our business and property clients can be confident that they are not supporting other practice areas that are irrelevant to their specific needs.
