Legal advisory to institutional investors
About us
Welcome to David Doble Law
We advise institutional investors on derivatives, structured finance and capital markets, from corporate bonds through hybrid products, to complex structured investment products.
Our role is to assist investors to understand what they are buying, restructuring, unwinding or litigating in terms of the legal and structural risks that lie at the heart of these complex and innovative markets. Our clients include some of the largest institutional investors; they are banks, asset managers, insurance companies and pension funds in Europe and beyond.
One of the main problems for investors, as far as legal complexity and risk are concerned, is that law firms with relevant expertise very often only make themselves available to advise the "sell-side" and not the investor.
In acting exclusively for investors in this market, our clients benefit from our extensive experience and understanding of the legal and structural issues in the documentation of those transactions that are among the most complex they are likely to enter into.
Independent legal advice for investors
What we do
The twin principal services we offer are:
● the review of complex bilateral documentation for structured credit transactions and derivatives; and
● legal and strategic advice in relation to disputes arising from such transactions and all other international capital markets investments.
In many cases, we are willing to act on a contingency fee basis in the early stages of our involvement - in order to give our clients a broad initial perspective on what they are faced with.
We also provide advice to other professional service providers outside the UK, such as law firms and accountancy firms in relation to the understanding of legal and structural risk generally in this market segment and in relation to specific types of transactions.
