Association of Independent Business Lawyers

Andrew is the founder founder member of the Association of Independent Business Lawyers (AIBL), which launched in March 2013 with 15 founder members.  AIBL lawyers are all experienced specialists in their own area of law and they all share a lot in common with the OnHand Counsel approach. This makes AIBL and AIBL lawyers a formidable alternative to the traditional providers of legal services. Andrew's/OnHand Counsel's profile on the AIBL website is here.

AIBL itself grew out of a broader network of independent business lawyers (‘NIBL’) which Andrew had been at the forefront of establishing since he first started as an independent himself in 2009. NIBL itself has well over 100 members. Whilst many of these do not quite have all the features required to qualify as a member of AIBL, NIBL nvertheless provides a very strong and useful network for its members and their clients.


“...strong network available to you to give us advice on a range of issues”

“with his network of experienced specialist lawyers it really is worth talking to Andrew first whenever you need any legal work done for your business”
