A team of professionals with a strong legal background, we are looking to go one step further from providing legal solutions to those wishing to bridge the gaps to taking the initiative upon themselves to help connect the right investors with the markets they know are safe to operate in and can generate far above market standard returns
Who we are
How it works
We look to build a network, working with an effective boutique approach with specific expertise across the board focusing solely on tendering directly to the client's needs.

They are brought together by the V1 Management Team that pride themselves on communicative and management abilities to be able to achieve the clients need for the lowest costs and with as little "added nonsense" as possible.
Our main focus
Central to a lot of what we do is our V1 Legal team: A boutique legal department with over 25 years of experience on the international legal market that has always had as its main focus, the innovative legal approach to facilitating the bringing of the gaps that have developed between international markets.

They work on a partnership bases with a network of law firms all over the world on individual projects as well as tending to V1's legal needs.
Out Something Special
There is also no doing what we do without our V1 Investigations team that is made up of a team of in house and partner investigators that carry out investigations in all types of cases to make sure that our clients and V1 are always one step ahead when it comes to information.
