Prime Advocates is a not-for-profit law-firm and strategic business consultancy. We use our market-leading expertise to pave the way for positive social change by providing the legal, strategic and financial advisory support which helps organisations break down the barriers to social finance. Driven by our passion for the sector and a strong global network, we work with a range of clients worldwide, from impact investors and family offices to social enterprises and large corporations. We primarily seek to support clients who are working towards achieving any or all of the seventeen UN Sustainable Development Goals, including gender equality, quality education, and climate action, but our ex-City lawyers and business consultants have wide-ranging experience across all traditional sectors.

Specifically, we help:
• Foundations to engage in impact investment through the provision of market knowledge and legal and commercial advisory services;
• Social enterprises to accelerate and scale by providing them with the strategic, commercial and legal support which enables them to become investment ready or more impactful;
• Finance-first funds to engage in impact investment and sustainability finance through structuring, market expertise and legal acumen;
• Corporates to establish their social value and articulate this value to the market place.

We believe in the transformative nature of social or environmental enterprise and the mechanisms for financing positive change. A world where sustainable business is the norm not the exception. Revenue generated from our fee-paying clients subsidies the pro- and low-bono support we provide to innovative new social enterprises who might not otherwise not be supported. This work is undertaken through our charitable arm, the Prime Advocates Foundation. All our profits are returned to this Foundation to further our purpose.
