About Cousins Business Law

Our ethos

Cousins Business Law is a firm of solicitors for small and medium sized businesses and family-owned companies. We work with clients enabling them to obtain the standard of legal advice and support that would normally only otherwise be available from the large commercial law firms.

Cousins Business Law is a firm of solicitors driven by a client-focused, honest and plain speaking approach to the law with the goal of providing first-class legal services to a broad portfolio of regional, national and international business clients.

We believe passionately that SMEs are the lifeblood of the British economy and want to play our part in their growth and success.

We see our job as taking the burden of legal concerns, compliance, regulation and business disputes from the shoulders of our clients so that they can get on with running their business.

Our clients

We serve a mix of SMEs and family-owned businesses - companies, partnerships, sole traders and charities. The firm remains committed to its ongoing vision of being the first choice legal firm for small and medium sized businesses.

Our firm

Cousins Business Law (www.business-lawfirm.co.uk) is an exciting, specialist, highly-regarded small law firm which has attracted lawyers from Legal 500 and well renowned local firms.

Working closely with all clients, our lawyers have a firm understanding of commercial business issues, as well as legal one,s and provide practical legal advice.

All our solicitors are specialists in their given area of law. We know that generalist lawyers are not able to give detailed and specific legal and business advice.

All our lawyers are senior solicitors - they would be partners in a traditional law firm - but Cousins Business Law does not run on this model. Instead of running and structuring the business for the benefit of ourselves, we run the business for the benefit of our clients – which means we operate on a virtual model. This means there are no expensive town centre offices; instead our lawyers will come to you or meet at a mutually convenient location, if indeed meetings are necessary.

Operating a virtual model means we are able to work for clients around the UK, and in fact also international businesses with commercial disputes or undertaking business in England or Wales.

There are no secretaries and junior staff handling the work, which means you get the best possible service and advice.

Although different in this regard, we are regulated and authorised like any other law firm. We are a member of the Law Society of England and Wales, and authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

At Cousins Business Law we will always:

Allocate an experienced business lawyer to handle your requirements
Provide direct telephone and email contact details for your lawyer
Use email to speed up communication whenever appropriate
Answer your phone calls to the firm personally whenever possible
Provide fixed fees for the services we offer, wherever possible
