Solicitor Reviews
Job done fast
"Leigh provides an excellent service for London court applications. Their attention to detail is terrific and the job gets done fast. Their office being only yards away from the London Royal Courts of Justice is an added bonus."
Contract Advice
Transparency on Fees
"Whilst we are 'tied' to our contract it is very useful that we understand the contracts as they exist. It also highlights the need for more attention than we have afforded in the past and also gives me the opportunity to make informed decision.
I found the support to be succinct and relatively east to digest. I appreciate written documentation/summary is time consuming [...], I appreciate the transparency in regard to the fees."

Infringement of Intellectual Property Rights
BSA Infringement
“We approached Leigh and a number of other law firms to advise us on the alleged infringement of intellectual property rights by the British Software Alliance (the BSA), who represented Microsoft and Adobe. They all described different routes with how to respond.
Leigh pointed out the potential strengths and weaknesses of all the options which led to us deciding he should support us through this process. We were thoroughly satisfied with the advice received and had the assurance of his knowledge and experience advising on claims by the BSA.
We completed the process as planned and had a good outcome given all of the possibilities. Leigh is aware time equals money and you can trust him to be brutally honest and clear in his advice. This means the process is progressed as efficiently and as cost effective as possible. He is highly recommended.”

Interior Design Business: Intellectual Property Rights
Software Dispute
“Leigh is extremely knowledgeable on contracts and intellectual property rights and how they affect my business. He anticipated what was likely to happen in my negotiations with a household name software company, and was positive about it.
I have worked with other solicitors and have been disappointed by solicitors being stiff and snooty and preoccupied on ‘more important’ clients. Leigh made time available for me. He was flexible and easily available outside business hours which was great, because I had my day job. He responded to my questions and concerns in clear language and worked through possible solutions.”

Professional & Quick

Business & Commercial Model
Responsive Lawyers
"Leigh has been representing my companies and me for 11 years. He has always been responsive. He has the ability to understand the business, the way software is deployed, the mind-set of developers to whom we license our software, and our commercial model.
We instructed another firm for a short period and got sick of being let down by experts and so look for things over and above legal competence. Leigh also assists us by providing insights on commercial aspects of deals and other matters which have an impact on our legal relationships."

Crystal Clear Terms
We are a relatively small facilities company which had one of our contracts terminated from a very high profile national trust and believed that this had been done wrongly. I scoured the internet looking for a solicitor that specialized in this field for advice. After searching and researching many sites we found [Leigh], who seemed to have the expertise required to advise us on this case.
After a quick overview on the telephone – he advised that we had a good case. Leigh’s explanations in crystal clear terms helped considerably easier to comprehend and also the fact that he was at the end of the telephone 24/7 at crucial times was very reassuring especially as this was an unknown territory and very stressful time for us.
The upshot being after only one letter and several emails we were offered a considerable out of court settlement, and cannot thank him enough for his expertise and guidance.
I firmly believe that with […] Leigh’s considerable knowledge, superb strategy and the way in which he handled our case – we were able to win and settle this case within days keeping litigation costs to a minimum.
The company have my vote and I highly recommend him.
