Effective legal intelligence

We make the law
work for you

Mission

Our mission is to work together across disciplines, achieving successful outcomes in an ever-evolving market through skilfully applied legal intelligence.

Values

Our core values underpin the work we do at JPC, allowing us to provide the highest standards of service for all our stakeholders.

We are proud to have a diverse team, who actively engage with our values. Our people deal with every matter professionally, efficiently and respectfully.

History

Evolving to offer a full range of legal services.

JPC is the product of a merger between Porter Crossick and the Private Client, Litigation and Trust and Probate departments of Roiter Zucker. Further expansion continued in 2009 when we were joined by the practice of Sherman Phillips.

In 2018, our expansion continued, with the acquisition of a central London practice ‘Terence St J Millett’ and in doing so increased our team in both residential and commercial real estate law.

Today, JPC operates from two key locations. You will find our head office based in a historic building (a former Victorian omnibus premises) in North London, and our second office in stunning South Kensington.

Full legal services can be found in both.
