Summerfield Browne Solicitors are retail and ecommerce solicitors authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. SRA number 598802. We are a modern and progressive law firm, and we use cutting edge technology in the delivery and provision of legal services, which significantly reduces our overheads, and which means we offer very competitive fee rates. Why not call us for a fee quote today?
What distinguishes us from many other online and ecommerce solicitors, is that we deliver legal services by combining the best aspects of the traditional law firm, with a flexible consultancy based legal services model. This means that many of our retail and ecommerce lawyers are consultants, who work remotely, and by using the latest IT and legal technology, can deliver fast and effective legal services. Our business model means that clients have the option of choosing either, remote delivery of legal services which is simple, effective and cost efficient, or alternatively, the more traditional delivery of legal services via meetings in person at either, our serviced offices, or at the client's business premises.
It’s very reassuring as an owner of an SME to know that you are getting excellent legal advice at a reasonable cost.
With the exception of our administrative headquarters, we only use serviced offices for basic needs, such as telephone answering. 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.
