Synch and AGRD Partners: Evolving to Deliver More for Our Clients

Twelve years ago, when we founded Synch, our ambition was to challenge the traditional model of business law. We wanted to create something calmer, clearer and more connected to technology and to the real needs of our clients.

That vision remains at the heart of everything we do. Today, as we join AGRD Partners, we are not changing direction. We are building on what we have created, expanding our reach and deepening our ability to deliver meaningful value for our clients.

A Natural Evolution for Greater Client Value

This partnership represents an exciting new chapter for Synch. By becoming part of AGRD Partners, we join a network of six progressive firms and nearly 250 professionals who share our belief that legal services should drive business success, not just support it.

For our clients, this means broader expertise, deeper sector knowledge and a team that combines legal, commercial and strategic perspectives to position you not only navigate change but lead it.

Clarity and Confidence in a Changing World

The regulatory landscape is evolving faster than ever and reshaping industries. New frameworks such as the EU AI Act, Data Act and Digital Markets Act are transforming how companies operate, innovate and grow.

Our expanded team will enable you to turn this complexity into opportunity by embedding legal foresight into your strategic decisions so that compliance, innovation and growth progress together.

Technology That Works for You

From the very beginning, I have believed that technology can make legal work simpler, faster and more transparent. As part of AGRD Partners, we will take this even further by investing in smart legal tech that streamlines processes, improves collaboration and provides instant clarity to help you make better decisions.

Holistic, Business-Driven Guidance

Over the years, Synch has evolved beyond the role of legal adviser. We look at the full picture of your business, your goals, challenges, risks and opportunities in order to provide guidance that is holistic, forward-looking and aligned with your long-term ambitions.

We listen carefully, think creatively and design solutions that bring calm to complexity and clarity to your next step.

A Platform for Your Ambitions

Joining AGRD Partners gives us the scale, reach and resources to grow with you, no matter how fast your business moves or how complex the challenge. Together, we will empower you to stay ahead, adapt with confidence and seize new opportunities.

Looking Ahead Together

This partnership is not only an exciting milestone for Synch but also a commitment to delivering even greater value to you. I am incredibly proud of what our team has built and deeply grateful to our clients and partners who have been part of the journey.

What began twelve years ago as a new way of thinking about legal services now evolves into something greater: a platform built for the future that is calm, clear and connected.
