Canopy Law
Canopy Law was a business law consultancy that ran from 2011 to 2018. It was set up by David Hughes to offer fixed price company law services. That meant no hourly billing. Below is a screenshot of the old website:

David still operates on those principles in the commercial law legal advice that he provides: including share purchases and sales, shareholder agreements and share reorganisations.
The image below shows a screenshot of the website’s original look.

David provided an alternative to mainstream business law solicitors, with refreshingly personal advice in a fuss-free manner.

Canopy Law advised a range of businesses from the very small (owner managed companies and sole traders) to very large corporations (Luton Airport, Synergy Health UK, Altium UK).

After 7 years, David needed a break and merged Canopy Law with a larger commercial firm, which enabled him to roll out the ideas of his company but on a bigger scale.
