LawBEAM

LawBEAM focuses on the regulatory and compliance stack most critical for crypto businesses — FCA registration and authorisations, multi-jurisdiction token legal opinions (covering the UK, EU, USA, UAE, and Asia-Pacific), AML/KYC programme design, crypto financial promotions compliance, and DeFi advisory. The firm is a specialist boutique rather than a generalist, meaning its depth in these areas exceeds what a general practice firm typically offers.

Yes — LawBEAM is explicitly designed to serve crypto businesses from ambitious start-ups through to established global players. Its boutique structure and crypto-native focus mean founders receive senior-level attention at rates more accessible than BigLaw, making it viable for early-stage projects that need substantive regulatory guidance without the overheads of a large firm engagement.

LawBEAM provides legal coverage across the UK, Europe, the Americas, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. Its token legal opinion service specifically covers the UK, United States, EU, UAE, and the Asia-Pacific region — the key jurisdictions for token issuance regulatory analysis. For multi-jurisdiction mandates, the firm coordinates coverage across these markets from its London base.

LawBEAM was founded by Roshi Sharma, a lawyer and financial services executive with 20 years' industry experience. Roshi advises financial institutions, technology companies, and crypto and Web3 enterprises on UK and international law and regulation. The firm was established in 2021 with a specific mission to serve the evolving legal and regulatory needs of the digital economy.

LawBEAM can be contacted via its website at lawbeam.io or directly through Roshi Sharma's team page. Given the firm's boutique size, inquiries receive direct principal attention rather than being routed through intake teams. Initial consultations typically begin with a discussion of the regulatory context and scope before moving to a defined engagement.

LawBEAM's crypto-native specialisation means it offers deeper focus on digital asset regulation than generalist practices at comparable or lower cost. As a boutique, senior practitioners handle matters directly rather than supervising junior teams — an important consideration for nuanced regulatory questions where practitioner experience is the primary source of value. The firm's global regulatory coverage from a UK base also makes it efficient for multi-jurisdiction token opinion requests.
