About Us
We are a specialist litigation and commercial law firm that uses legal expertise and digital tools to proactively manage, advise and deliver business solutions to reduce legal risk.
Welcome to rradar
Our vision is clear: Empower and educate businesses through smarter legal services.
We are a specialist litigation and commercial law firm that uses legal expertise and digital tools to proactively manage, advise and deliver business solutions to reduce legal risk. But we don’t just stop at legal excellence.
We also specialise in the education and prevention of legal crises in the first place. Our people are focused on sharing difficult-to-access legal knowledge through innovative digital channels so clients can easily access the information faster and tackle commercial risks before they become costly legal problems.
Pioneering a new way
To do this, we have built a multidisciplinary team of solicitors, legal advisors, IT and in-house developers, design and media specialists whose combined strength makes us a powerful advocate and champion for businesses, helping them to navigate and evolve in an ever-changing environment of regulation, compliance and litigation risk.
We have over 150 full time team members and we are continually growing across four key strategic office locations - Hull, Leeds, Birmingham, Leicester and Glasgow. We fuse first-class legal advice and representation with the latest technology to deliver a preventative, education-led strategy that makes the law more accessible and affordable to our clients.
How we do it
Our people work with businesses to manage their legal risk and associated problems. We offer a technology driven, preventative educational strategy that makes the law more accessible and affordable, supporting people to run better businesses.
