Laurence Fishman

Partner

Laurence joined Nyman Libson Paul LLP as a Partner in 2018. He brings with him a mix of big-firm experience and an entrepreneurial instinct that sets him apart.

He is a go-to advisor for ambitious, fast-growth businesses. He already supports several well-known trailblazers across a wide range of sectors including media, tech, ecommerce and the creator economy. He specialises in helping clients navigate critical moments. Whether expanding into new markets, transforming operations, raising finance, or planning for an exit, Laurence’s clients value his ability to bring clarity to complex matters.

He always builds his work on relationships, putting people first. A solution-finder, founders and leadership teams trust Laurence for his blend of commercial savvy, blue-sky thinking and pragmatic foresight, always delivered with a refreshingly human touch.

Outside the office, Laurence loves to swap balance sheets for beats! A singer, songwriter and producer, music has long been his creative escape. He is a fiercely loyal Arsenal fan, the loudest voice on the sidelines at his son’s Sunday League matches and always front row at one of his daughter’s dance shows. An avid traveller, he has already ticked off many countries, and plenty more are hoped to be added.
