About Us

Comptons was founded in 1987 and initially started life as a boutique property firm.
The firm now provides a full range of services with particular strengths in real estate projects, property litigation, enfranchisement, residential conveyancing, commercial property, probate and family.
Comptons was founded on core values of building long term relationships with clients, providing pragmatic expert advice and team work. To this day Comptons will work as one unit to fully service the requirements of its clients.
Our Brand
Comptons’ current icon and registered trademark is the steel butterfly. The butterfly’s steely look portrays the strong leadership inherent in our solicitors and our approach to lead clients using our expertise and experience. Being situated near Regent’s Park is also relevant! The steel butterfly has since been central to our firm’s branding on social media channels.
