What Radiant Law does

Radiant Law Limited is a UK-registered, SRA-authorised alternative legal services provider (ALSP) that specialises in high-volume commercial contracting for in-house legal teams at FTSE 100/250, Fortune 500, and high-growth companies. Founded by Alex Hamilton around 2011 and headquartered in London, the firm positions itself as a contracting specialist that takes operational contract work off in-house lawyers' desks so client teams can focus on strategic work.

The firm operates four core service lines: Managed Legal Services (running high-volume contracting for a fixed price), Contract Projects (large-scale contract reviews and repapering), Legal Secondments (flexible legal resourcing including a Managed Team option), and AI Enablement (supporting legal teams in adopting AI in contracting processes). Service delivery is supported by a proprietary platform that connects playbooks, contract data, and workflow tools to enable AI-assisted review and issue spotting; document automation is built on Contract Express (Thomson Reuters) and Docassemble. Radiant claims half-day turnaround on 80% of contracts and cites 24-hour global coverage.

Radiant monetises exclusively on fixed-price, multi-year engagements (no hourly billing). It targets enterprise legal buyers through direct field sales, supported by a content-led marketing motion: an extensive knowledge library, webinars, a published book (Sign Here), a podcast (Radiant Lawcast), and a Contracting Scorecard assessment tool used for lead generation. The firm is B Corp certified, ISO 27001 certified (2022), and Cyber Essentials certified, and has received UK and global awards recognising its position within the alternative legal services market. Ownership is described as founder-led and independent, with no disclosed institutional backing.

Broad incumbents

• EY (EY Law): Big Four legal practice offering managed legal services, contracting and legal ops consulting to FTSE/Fortune 500—competes for the same enterprise managed-services spend as Radiant, supported by broader advisory scope.
• Deloitte Legal: Big Four legal arm offering managed legal services, legal operations transformation and technology-led contracting—overlaps Radiant's enterprise ALSP positioning with broader consulting access.

Emerging players

• Luminance: UK-founded AI legal-tech firm specializing in contract review and analysis for enterprises and law firms—overlaps Radiant's AI-assisted review capability and could evolve into a competing service layer.
