Running a business today comes with a myriad of legal challenges—from setting up contracts to handling disputes, protecting intellectual property, and navigating complex corporate transactions. At Wellingtons Solicitors, based in London, we understand the unique pressures faced by businesses of all sizes, especially small businesses, start-ups, and ecommerce ventures. Our mission is to provide clear, practical, and expert legal services tailored to support your business growth and protect your interests.
Legal Advice for Small Businesses, Start-ups & Ecommerce Businesses
At Wellingtons Solicitors, we pride ourselves not only on our deep legal expertise but also on our approachable, down-to-earth, and client-focused manner. We know that while the “bottom line” is crucial for any business, without our clients, there is no business for us. That’s why client satisfaction and building long-term relationships are at the heart of everything we do.
Whether you’re a fledgling start-up with a bright idea or an established SME looking to expand, our commercial legal team is here to guide you every step of the way. We focus on delivering practical solutions that help you avoid costly pitfalls and make informed decisions.
Our Comprehensive Business Law Services
Our business law practice is structured around four key areas to cover all your commercial needs:
1. Corporate Transactions
We assist with mergers, acquisitions, investments, and the disposal of shares and assets. Whether you’re buying another company, raising investment, or restructuring your business, our solicitors provide expert advice to ensure smooth and legally sound transactions.
2. Company & Commercial Law and Contracts
From drafting and reviewing contracts to intellectual property protection, licensing, and media law, we help you create robust agreements that safeguard your business interests and foster growth.
3. Commercial Disputes
Disputes can disrupt your business operations and drain resources. We represent clients in business and property disputes, working to resolve conflicts efficiently and protect your commercial reputation.
4. Commercial Real Estate
Whether you’re leasing premises, investing in property, or selling commercial real estate, our team offers experienced guidance to secure your property interests and optimise your commercial arrangements.
Tailored Focus on SMEs, Start-Ups & Ecommerce Businesses
Understanding the unique challenges faced by smaller businesses and start-ups, we have designed a range of fixed-fee legal products specifically for this market. These are not generic templates but professionally drafted, bespoke contracts prepared by qualified solicitors who understand your business needs.
Our value-based, fixed fee legal services offer transparency and predictability, removing the uncertainty of hourly billing. This approach helps you budget effectively while receiving high-quality legal documents and advice.

We have simplified the process into eight straightforward steps to make working with us easy and efficient:
- Choose your fixed fee product from our range of business contracts.
- Provide full details—we’ll guide you on the information and client identification needed.
- We open a file to start your case.
- You agree to our client engagement and standard terms of business.
- We prepare the contract tailored to your needs.
- You review and approve or request amendments.
