Summerfield Browne Solicitors are authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. We are a modern and progressive law firm, and operate a new legal services business model, which significantly reduces our overheads, and which means we can transfer the benefit of those cost savings back to our customers, in the form of competitive fee rates.
What sets us apart from many other solicitors, is that we deliver legal services using a business model that incorporates a flexible consultancy based legal services model, which is perfectly suited to providing external in-house counsel services. This means that many of our solicitors are consultants, who work remotely at various locations in England, and by using the latest IT technology they can service our clients anywhere in England and Wales. Our business model means that clients have the option of choosing remote delivery of legal services which is simple, effective and cost efficient and which is ideally suited to providing outsourced in-house counsel services.
Whilst I have only worked as a Consultant with Summerfield Browne for a short period of time, I have found their ethos, working practices and support and professionalism, second to none. Working as a Consultant with Summerfield Browne enables me to work from home and at the same time, receive first class support from a first class team, enabling me in turn to provide a first class service to my clients. The quality and volume of leads received from Summerfield Browne is second to none, ensuring a consistent workload and income stream.
With the exception of our administrative headquarters, we only use serviced offices for basic needs, such as telephone answering and mail receipt. Any additional fees for meetings are only incurred on an "as and when" used basis, which means that we do not incur many of the significant property overheads, which are incurred by other more traditional law firms.
We have a team of highly experienced lawyers who have all either, worked for leading law firms, or held senior positions in law firms. Please browse our team by visiting our Team page.
If you require outsourced in-house counsel services, whether as an interim measure to cover maternity leave or for an in-house project for instance, or alternatively on a permanent basis, then we can provide external in-house counsel services to you. Where possible we agree an in-house counsel retainer, which is a monthly retainer based on the amount of support you require each month. Where possible we agree the in-house counsel retainer as a fixed monthly fee, so that you can budget for the provision of legal services support in your annual cost budget. We know that clients do not like surprises when it comes to legal fees, and we have found that a fixed monthly fee in-house counsel retainer works well for clients.
We provide external in-house counsel services in relation to all areas of business law including corporate, commercial (including general commercial contracts), employment, commercial property, intellectual property, banking and finance, software and technology, litigation and debt recovery and internet law.
