“We're hiring a consultant who will access customer data and create software.”
You don't need to know which document you need. We identify it.
Core protection
Protection, proposals and backup — with optional add-ons as you scale.
Core protection covers the legal issues modern businesses face most often. Every subscription also includes Dispute Mitigation, so you have us around when something goes wrong, and the proposals, frameworks and case studies used to win real work. Corporate + Equity sits outside the core subscription as a premium add-on you can bring in as the business grows.

Since 2022 — New Intelligence
Learned from hundreds of real engagements.
The value of New Legal isn't that we've written hundreds of contracts. It's that our team of lawyers and dealmakers has advised on hundreds of commercial engagements over many years — and the subscription compounds: almost every improvement, document and diagnostic we add makes the intelligence you get better.

absorbingOutput
- Better terms
- Better documents
- Better diagnostics
- Better proposals
- Better guidance
More real commercial experience in — a stronger product out.
A subscription that compounds
Every document we add and every improvement we make feeds back into the product — so the intelligence, terms and guidance you have access to keep getting sharper while you're subscribed.

From £750 to £750K+
We take businesses from A to B by advising on the key terms that close deals — and those same terms are built into what you get.
Advice, turned into product
Every contract, term, framework and proposal in Venture Shield is designed from what our lawyers and dealmakers actually advised clients to do — not from templates.
See how leaders operate
Subscribers get to see how the businesses ahead of them structure their agreements, pricing and protections — and use the same shapes.
Our clients include tech businesses, consultants, marketers, speakers, influencers, SMEs, consultancies and professionals — many award-winning. They have worked inside — or now deliver into — organisations such as Amazon, Gartner, Revolut, EY, Meta, the NHS, BCG, Red Bull, OpenAI and PwC. To be clear: those organisations are not our clients and we make no claim to have worked for them. Delivered through our consultancy arm, New Intelligence.

Most growing businesses don't need a lawyer in every routine decision — but they do need reliable legal infrastructure.

We locate the closest matching contract — or the right suite of clauses and solutions — from the Venture Shield portfolio.
We share the right solution for you to edit yourself, or compile it for you.
If the matter is higher-risk, unusual or needs tailoring, we identify that early and flag that human input is required.
Beta means a smarter blend of AI and human judgement — with the right level of support for the situation. See what's included
