Alicia Dark is the Director and founder of Dark Legal. She established the firm with a clear objective: to provide legal services in a way that is commercially focused, transparent and responsive to the needs of modern clients.

Alicia is an experienced litigator who takes a decisive and strategic approach to disputes.  She is a strong advocate for her clients and is not afraid to take a firm position where the circumstances demand it.  While Alicia looks for opportunities to resolve disputes commercially and efficiently, she is equally prepared to pursue matters vigorously, where doing so is necessary to protect her clients’ interests.

Alicia works closely with her clients to ensure they understand not only the legal issues they face, but all the available options, likely costs, risks and commercial implications of each course of action.  Clients have direct access to Alicia throughout their matter and are kept informed as the strategy develops.

Her focus extends beyond resolving the immediate legal issue.  Alicia seeks to understand her clients’ broader commercial objectives and businesses so that her advice supports both the outcome of the matter at hand and their longer-term success.

Whether conducting complex litigation, managing commercial risk or assisting a business to navigate an important transaction or decision, Alicia’s approach is straightforward: clear advice, considered strategy and determined advocacy focused on achieving commercially sensible outcomes.
