About us

Introducing

After more than 40 years trading as Birman & Ride, in April 2024 we changed our flagship name to Curae Law.

It’s only our name that has changed.

Curae Law is still operated by the same brilliant team and offers the same, quality services you know and love.

Curae Law means:

Close attention

Responsibility, guidance and care

Guardianship

Taking charge and oversight

Healing

Helping you solve legal problems

OUR PURPOSE

Curae Law exists to help people simplify and solve legal problems.

We work across four areas: deceased estates, wills and estate planning, real estate conveyancing, and debt collection. Some of these matters are routine. Some come at the hardest moments of a person’s life. We bring the same care and honesty to both.

Our core values

Be kind

We’re compassionate, but firm when we need to be

We do things differently

Complacency is not our thing

Strive for excellence

High standards are our way of life

Our ten year target

Quality outcomes are important to us.
That’s why we have a big, audacious goal to get 15,000 positive client reviews by June 2033. Read what our clients say here, or help us on our mission by leaving your own review here.
Reviews and counting

Our future

We’re committed to growing, improving and becoming the best version of ourselves.

One way we do that is by being brave enough to decide what our future will look like and then working hard to bring that vision to life. 

We create a three year painted picture vision to make sure we stay focused on achieving our goals.

Our painted picture vision of 2027: How we will look, feel and act by 1 July 2027 is available here.

From start to finish of applying for probate, the team were communicative and compassionate through every step. Monica provided a top level of attention to detail and explaining things to be in terms I can understand. I cannot recommend Curae Law highly enough.
