About Moore & Co

A 37-year story of building trust, one client at a time — rooted in the belief that exceptional legal advice should be personal, clear, and accessible.

Built on a single principle.

In 1987, David Moore and Kelvin Bowen left a large City firm with one conviction: that the personal service and expert advice available to major corporate clients should be available to everyone — individuals, families, and growing businesses alike.

They opened a small office in Gray's Inn Road with three staff. Today, Moore & Co employs over forty people across three offices, but the founding principle remains unchanged.

Every client receives a named partner or senior solicitor on their matter. Every call is returned the same day. Every bill is agreed in advance wherever possible. These aren't policies — they're promises.

What We Stand For

Our values are not a wall display.

They are operational commitments that shape how we work every single day.

Clarity

Legal language exists to be precise, not to confuse. We translate complexity into plain English so you always understand where you stand and what your options are.

Accountability

You will always know who is handling your matter and how to reach them directly. We don't hide behind switchboards or junior staff.

Integrity

We give you our honest professional opinion — even when it's not what you hoped to hear. Our job is to serve your long-term interests, not to tell you what you want.

Excellence

Every matter, whatever its size, receives the same standard of thoroughness. We take pride in getting the details right because details are what determine outcomes.

Recognition

Awards & accreditations.

Independent recognition of the quality and consistency of our legal work across all practice areas.
