Ben Colenutt / Legal Studio

Ben Colenutt was frequently recommended as an expert in property law in my local area online blog, and I engaged him to handle my lease extension. The case was not without complications and delays, but thanks to Ben's vast professional knowledge, experience and perseverance we got there in the end. He then also followed the matter up to make sure the new lease was registered promptly. He was always available to speak on the phone and replied promptly to my emails. I can happily recommend Ben and would use again should the need arise.

Exceptional Legal Support for Trademarks and Contracts

We recently had the pleasure of working with Andrew Vickerstaff and cannot express enough how satisfied we are with the exceptional service provided.

From the outset, Andrew's expertise was evident, and his dedication to ensuring that our company's legal foundation is solid, sets him apart from other solicitors that we have worked with in the past. He demonstrated a profound understanding of trademark intricacies, his insightful advice not only helps to protect our brand but also to position us strategically within the legal landscape.

Andrew crafted comprehensive contracts for our company, including global non-disclosure agreements and employment contracts. His ability to translate complex legal language into practical, accessible terms was invaluable. He took the time to understand our business model, allowing him to tailor each document to suit our specific requirements. The result was a suite of contracts that not only meets legal standards but also aligns seamlessly with our organisational goals.

Throughout the entire process, Andrew was prompt in responding to our inquiries, providing updates, and explaining legal nuances in a way that was easily digestible. This level of responsiveness and transparency made the legal journey a collaborative and positive experience.

We highly recommend Andrew Vickerstaff and Legal Studio to any business seeking top-tier legal counsel. Their expertise, professionalism, and client-centric approach makes them an invaluable asset for navigating the complexities of trademarks and contract law.

Fantastic legal service

Ben was absolutely first class throughout the process. He explained it all in non-legalese language, kept me regularly updated, liaised with other individuals as needed and charged a very fair price. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will definitely return should I need further legal help in the future.
