Ortolan Legal

We are a commercial law firm authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, but unlike most other law firms we operate virtually. By leveraging technology and engaging senior solicitors who embrace the benefits of flexible working we have been able to eliminate expensive overheads like city centre offices. We pass these savings on to our clients in our ultra-competitive fees. Our team of lawyers can assist with the below legal matters on a real time basis: • Commercial advice from drafting a set of standard terms and conditions to the preparation and negotiation of complex commercial contracts. We advise across a broad range of industry sectors including logistics, retail, rail, e-commerce, manufacturing, automotive and professional services. • Corporate advice including the buying and selling of businesses, financing, restructuring, joint ventures and partnerships. • Employment (non-contentious matters such as contract drafting, staff management (performance reviews, grievance, disciplinary, maternity matters to dismissal advice) and Tribunal matters (such as defending unfair dismissal and discrimination claims). • Commercial property (buying and selling properties, drafting and negotiating commercial leases and licenses) • Contentious property advice including landlord and tenant disputes. • Commercial dispute resolution and litigation. We provide advice on all aspects of contractual and other forms of dispute. • Insolvency/restructuring and debt collection. All our professional team are senior and experienced solicitors with an average of 14 years post-qualification experience. We agree our fee structures in consultation with our clients and can offer fixed and capped fees where appropriate. To give you a feel for our cost-effectiveness, where we do agree to charge for our services on a time basis our current rate is just £150 plus VAT per hour. We pride ourselves on taking an extremely commercial approach to our advice.
