About us
Cadence Legal, a boutique commercial advisory firm established by Peter Carroll, leverages over 25 years of expertise in commercial law and business. Peter himself brings more than 30 years of experience to the firm. Cadence Legal merges the quality, rigour, and extensive knowledge typical of a large commercial firm with the personalised engagement and nimbleness of a smaller practice. The firm is dedicated to deeply understanding clients’ businesses, delivering pragmatic and commercially viable solutions with a focus on enabling outcomes rather than providing reasons for limitation. This approach prioritises simplicity, practical solutions, sustainable competitive advantage, and flexible fee structures, including retainers, daily rates, and fixed fees.
The firm's heritage is rooted in senior in-house and top-tier firm experience across industries such as sports marketing, branded FMCG, and food and beverage, equipping them to service businesses of various scales, from privately owned SMEs to listed multinationals. Cadence Legal offers bespoke legal services in areas such as corporate development, mergers and acquisitions, disposals, joint ventures, restructures, commercial contracting, intellectual property, competition law, marketing and advertising clearance, privacy, and corporate governance.
Additional offerings include outsourced general counsel services, project support like M&A, due diligence, restructures and compliance, and training and compliance programs in competition law, contracting, and corporate governance. The firm also provides consulting services related to legal and regulatory risk profiling and resourcing model advice.
