About Silva
Silva is a legal advisory and consultancy company for growing businesses. Not a law firm. Not a consultancy in the abstract. Something built specifically for the gap between the two.
Silva Lex Ltd exists for a straightforward reason: most growing businesses need the kind of legal support, business advice and AI capability that large firms charge large retainers for, but without the cost, the complexity, or the sense you are at the back of the queue.
We work directly with founders, in-house teams and decision-makers. No layers of associates. No billing surprises. A relationship you can actually use.
On the legal side: day-to-day queries, retainer cover, litigation support, and packaged products like our EMI scheme. On the AI side: training, implementation, discovery and platform creation for businesses integrating AI into how they work.
Silva Lex Ltd is a legal advisory and consultancy company registered in England and Wales. It is not a law firm.
Decades of experience across in-house roles, private practice and advisory work for businesses at every stage. Founded Silva to offer what he wished had existed earlier — expert legal and AI support, priced and structured for the businesses that actually need it most.
How we work
Not sure what you need or where to begin? The Discovery Day is a structured session designed to give you clarity on your legal position, your risks and your options — in a single day, at a fixed fee.
Legal Discovery DayIf you need regular access to legal advice, the Retainer provides a fixed monthly relationship — responsive, practical, without the open meter. For businesses with day-to-day queries, we handle them directly.
Legal ServicesFor defined legal tasks — an EMI scheme, a shareholder agreement, employment contracts — we offer fixed-fee products. One price, one process, no surprises. More products in development.
Legal ProductsOne firm. Two practices.
Practical, plain English legal support for SMEs, startups and founders. Day-to-day queries, retainer cover, commercial advice, employment, litigation support and fixed-fee products. No law firm overhead. No blank cheques.
Legal ServicesTraining, discovery, implementation and platform creation for organisations integrating AI into their practice. From half-day workshops to full workflow builds. Practical, not theoretical — built by people who actually use these tools.
Silva AIBy the numbers
Across in-house roles, private practice, advisory and AI implementation. Depth you can draw on across the full range of what your business needs.
Every engagement is fixed fee or fixed rate. You know what you are paying before anything starts. No clock running in the background.
Legal advisory and AI consultancy. Two distinct offerings, one team. Built to work together — and to serve clients across both when the need arises.
