Selling into Great Britain? Your EU rights stop at the border.

Western Legal acts for Irish companies trading with Great Britain. All work is English law, delivered remotely at fixed fees in EUR agreed in writing before work begins, by a Solicitor of England and Wales (SRA No. 641612). We do not practise Irish law and do not draft instruments governed by Irish law. Irish law matters belong with an Irish solicitor.

Handled entirely in writing. No hearings, no meetings, no attendance required.

The full range

Everything an English law practice does, except your local law.

Trademarks are where many clients start, but the practice covers the width of commercial work under English law. Whatever you send, the answer arrives in writing at a fixed fee agreed first.

Contracts

NDAs, terms and conditions, distribution, agency, supply, licensing, SaaS, services and bespoke agreements drafted, reviewed and negotiated.

Company and deals

UK incorporation, SPVs, shareholder agreements, resolutions and filings, buying and selling businesses, due diligence and completion.

Property

Commercial leases reviewed and negotiated, licences, variations, dilapidations and landlord matters for premises in England and Wales.

Disputes and money owed

Letters before action, statutory demands, settlement negotiation, mediation representation, arbitration written stages and construction adjudication.

Brand and IP

UK and EU trademarks, international filings, opposition defence, domain disputes, copyright and enforcement.

People and data

Employment contracts and handbooks for UK staff, tribunal work, UK GDPR documentation, website legal packs and regulatory responses.

What we do not do is your local law. That is referred to correspondent counsel in your jurisdiction, and we tell you before any cost arises.

Fees

The fee schedule.

FIXED FEES: agreed in writing before any work begins. The fee quoted is the fee paid, and it does not change after you accept it.
FAST, BY DESIGN

Written reply within 24 hours. Trademarks filed within 48 hours of instruction. Documents in days, not weeks. Never "3 to 5 business days" just to hear back.
