Welcome to the Silver Shemmings LLP Website
Silver Shemmings LLP is a progressive legal practice offering clear and practical legal advice. This means that we deliver realistic advice and support aimed at strengthening your business.
Our philosophy is that the most commercially sensible course is, where possible, to avoid a dispute as this can escalate costs and potentially damage our clients’ relations with their customers and/or suppliers.
Silver Shemmings provide a pro-active approach, giving clear and practical advice so that our clients can meet their objectives. We recognise that no issue can be considered in a legal vacuum and so we look to be part of the team giving added value to the client’s commercial decisions.

The Practice was incorporated in January 2004 by Sarah Shemmings and Richard Silver both of whom have many years of experience in dealing with construction, commercial and environmental issues.
