Strategic Counsel  ·  Dubai  ·  Zurich  ·  Hong Kong

Counsel to founders, boards and family offices on the questions that arrive before the rules do.

Six practices — space law, emerging technology, regulatory, capital, AI and founder counsel — held by one principal, for clients who would otherwise assemble six advisors.

01

Regulatory & supervisory counsel

Licence applications, supervisory responses, breach architecture, and the conversations that close a regulator's open questions before they become written ones. VARA, FINMA, SFC, MAS, IFSCA.

02

Capital strategy & cross-border access

Round architecture for regulated entities. Lawful Indian institutional capital through GIFT City. Family office introductions. Tokenised distribution rails.

Read the practice
03

Artificial intelligence & operating model

Where to deploy AI inside a mid-market business, what to govern, and which decisions a serious firm should still want a human to make. Strategy first, deployment second.

Read the practice
04

Founder & narrative counsel

For first-time founders in moments they have not been in before — board fracture, capital reset, co-founder departure, an inbound press cycle, a relaunch that needs a new story.

Read the practice
05

Space law & frontier policy

The orbital economy is moving faster than the regime that governs it. Counsel on resource rights, debris and traffic, registration and liability — and the policy advocacy that shapes the rules before they harden.

06

Emerging technology & regulatory frontier

A deliberately open practice for the technologies that arrive before their rules do — tokenised real-world assets, AI governance, digital assets, and whatever the next frontier turns out to be.

Hover any practice to see how it resolves.

The frontier moves. The discipline does not.

Satellite constellation, tokenised fund, supervisory query, board in fracture — the work is the same: read where the rules are heading, take a position defensible today and survivable tomorrow, and, where the rule is still a draft, help write it. A serious operator's problems rarely fit inside one practice; the firm holds all six.
