About Belfort
About Belfort
Multidisciplinary law firm and strategic advisory practice
Belfort is a multidisciplinary group that brings together a boutique law firm and a strategic advisory practice under one roof.
By integrating legal privilege, investigative legal support, and governance expertise, we help boards, executives, and public institutions prevent, detect, and resolve insider threats, all while building systems and solutions that keep organisations compliant and resilient.
Our team combines senior litigation and compliance counsel (Belfort Law) with governance, risk, and resilience specialists (Belfort Advisory). We work together and coordinated, while legal conclusions are kept privilege-protected, and advisory programs drive implementation and measurable impact.
Our strategic advisory services are strengthened by Belfort Law, providing legal privilege and regulatory expertise to all recommendations. This partnership ensures that every strategic initiative is legally sound and compliance-ready.
