Legal services overview

Legal Services Tailored to Your Needs

We focus on three core areas where clear legal guidance makes a meaningful difference to outcomes.

Our Service Philosophy

Rather than attempting to cover every possible legal matter, we concentrate on three areas where we can provide genuinely valuable guidance. This focused approach allows us to maintain deep expertise and provide consistently high-quality service.

Each service reflects our commitment to clear communication, transparent pricing, and practical advice that serves your actual circumstances rather than following standardised templates.

Our Services

Commercial agreement review

Commercial Agreement Review

Careful examination of business contracts, partnership arrangements, and commercial terms to help you understand your position and obligations. Our solicitors take time to explain complex clauses in plain language, highlighting areas that may require attention or negotiation.

This service suits organisations entering new commercial relationships, reviewing existing arrangements, or seeking clarity on contractual matters. We provide written summaries of key points alongside the marked documents, enabling you to make informed decisions.

Response times depend on document complexity, though we always provide realistic timeframes upfront so you can plan accordingly.

From £350 to £900

Civil dispute guidance

Civil Dispute Guidance

Considered support for individuals and businesses navigating disagreements that may require legal resolution. We help you understand your position, the strengths and considerations of your situation, and the realistic options available, from negotiation through to formal proceedings if necessary.

Our approach prioritises resolution over prolongation, recognising that disputes consume resources and attention. Initial consultations establish the facts and likely pathways, after which you can decide how to proceed with full awareness of potential costs and timelines.

We explain what each stage involves and keep you informed throughout, ensuring you understand the process and can make sound decisions at each point.

From £400 to £1,100

Business formation counsel

Business Formation Counsel

Guidance for those establishing new business entities or restructuring existing arrangements. We advise on appropriate structures for your circumstances, prepare necessary documentation, and ensure you understand your obligations as directors or partners.

This service extends to shareholder agreements, partnership terms, and governance frameworks that help prevent future difficulties. We recognise that new business owners have many competing demands and work to make the legal aspects as straightforward as possible.

Requirements are explained in accessible terms, and we provide clear documentation that you can refer to as your business develops.

From £450 to £1,200

Why Choose Our Services

Focused Expertise

By concentrating on three core services rather than attempting to cover every legal matter, we maintain deep knowledge in these areas and provide consistently reliable guidance.

Clear Pricing Structure

Fixed-fee arrangements for most services mean you know costs upfront. No unexpected charges appear later, allowing you to budget confidently and make informed decisions.

Plain Language Communication

Legal matters explained clearly without unnecessary jargon. You receive both formal documents and plain language summaries, ensuring you understand what is happening and why.

Realistic Timeframes

We provide honest estimates of how long matters typically take and what factors might extend timelines. This allows you to plan accordingly without surprises.

How We Work Together

Our process ensures you remain informed and involved throughout your matter, regardless of which service you engage.

1

Initial Consultation

We discuss your circumstances and what you hope to achieve. This helps us determine whether we can assist effectively and what approach might suit your needs. You receive a clear explanation of the likely process and costs.

2

Detailed Assessment

We review relevant documents and circumstances thoroughly. For contract reviews, this means careful examination of each clause. For disputes, it involves understanding all parties' positions. For business formation, it requires understanding your plans and goals.

3

Clear Guidance

We explain your position, available options, and realistic outcomes for different approaches. This guidance includes our recommendation whilst making clear that decisions rest with you. You receive this information in writing for reference.

4

Implementation

Once you decide how to proceed, we handle the necessary work whilst keeping you informed. You receive regular updates on progress and have opportunities to ask questions or request clarification at any stage.

5

Resolution and Follow-up

We ensure matters are properly concluded and provide guidance on any ongoing obligations. Our door remains open should you need further assistance or clarification in future.

Investment and Value

We believe in transparent pricing that allows you to make informed decisions about legal expenditure.

Fee Structure

Our services use fixed fees where possible, quoted based on the complexity of your matter. This means you know costs upfront and can budget accordingly.

Commercial Agreement Review £350 - £900
Civil Dispute Guidance £400 - £1,100
Business Formation Counsel £450 - £1,200
