We combine the what with the how
Ashurst Risk Advisory is redefining what truly integrated solutions look like. Our division was created to respond to client demand and is designed to provide risk expertise that complements the firm's core legal services.
With dedicated teams of legal and consulting professionals working side by side, the firm brings together the technical expertise and critical thinking required to operationalise laws and regulations and help clients to achieve their goals.
We sit at the optimal intersection of the structural integrity of a global top tier law firm and the agility of a growth focused advisory business.
After successfully establishing the division in Australia in 2020, our now 100+ strong team has advised market-leading clients and in October 2022 expanded into the UK.
