When to Call Us

Proceedings are live

Counsel has issued or received a claim. You need independent quantum analysis or settlement posture testing before the next procedural step.

Pre-action positioning

A dispute is forming but litigation has not started. You want to understand exposure, test the strength of potential counterclaims, or prepare materials that support early resolution.

Decision under pressure

The board faces a high-stakes commercial decision with incomplete information or competing internal views. You need structured analysis delivered to a fixed deadline.

Client Feedback

"Their quantum analysis helped us understand our exposure before we responded to the claim. The work was defensible and gave our external counsel exactly what they needed."
Tom S. – General Counsel, Insurance
"We really needed an independent view on a transaction dispute. And we're so glad we contacted Florin Advisors because their report cut through the internal disagreement and gave us a clear path forward. The team was responsive and commercially minded, and they gave us their sincere attention throughout our engagement. What's better is that they worked to our governance timetable without compromising quality at any stage.”

"The documentary review they conducted was incredibly thorough. They were able to identify weaknesses in the other side's case that we hadn't spotted. It changed our strategy completely, which we are very grateful for."
