# GRCI Law

- **Type:** Advisory firm
- **Website:** https://www.grcilaw.com
- **Assessed by:** The Assurance Desk (Add-Venture Advisory Ltd)

The data protection legal arm of GRC International Group, now part of GRC Solutions, offering an outsourced DPO, consultancy, subject access handling and EU and UK representative services.

## GRCI Law scores

Scored 1 to 5 on six criteria. There is no overall score.

### Help when things go wrong: 2/5

Group pages reference breach management within the DPO service GRCI Law is associated with, but the current GRCI Law page publishes no incident or ICO-engagement detail, outcomes or named practitioners (checked 2026-07-16).

### Qualifications of the people who do the work: 2/5

Group service pages claim delivery by 'data protection officers, lawyers and barristers', but no named GRCI Law staff or verifiable credentials are currently published; the former team page redirects (checked 2026-07-16).

### What it publishes about fees: 3/5

No figures published anywhere; the associated group DPO product explains the fee model, one-year minimum contract billed monthly, tailored quote, which meets 'model explained, no figures' (uk.grcsolutions.io, checked 2026-07-16).

### Knowledge of your sector: 2/5

Current public presence is a single brand-transition page with no sector practices, sector practitioners or sector-specific published work (grcsolutions.io/grci-law/, checked 2026-07-16).

### Independence from what it sells: 3/5

Part of a group that sells its own toolkits, training and software under the same brand; the group relationship is openly disclosed on the transition page and privacy notice (checked 2026-07-16).

### Who carries the risk if the advice is wrong: 2/5

No PI cover disclosed; group purchase terms with a liability cap exist but name IT Governance Limited as contracting entity, so GRCI Law-specific engagement terms are unclear (grcsolutions.io/legal/, checked 2026-07-16).

**Scope.** The Assurance Desk covers data protection, AI governance and cyber security in the United Kingdom and the United States. It scores providers in both: UK-facing firms, and firms based in the United States. Every provider scored so far was selected for data-protection, AI-governance or security-assurance work. Where a page describes law, it names the country that law applies in.

**Who publishes this.** The Assurance Desk is published by Add-Venture Advisory Ltd, company number 11854524, registered in England and Wales. The same owner runs Avouch, a marketing agency that sells AI visibility services to firms of the kind this site covers. That is a conflict of interest, and it is disclosed here.

**Corrections.** If you represent this firm and something here is wrong or out of date, email hello@theassurancedesk.com with the evidence.
