Commercial Corporate and Business

Help to create a successful and respected business

Wright and Lord set up from scratch in 2001 and quickly became the successful and respected business it is now. Quite apart from being qualified legal advisors with many years of experience, they have their own valuable insight, having set up their business venture from scratch and developed that into what it is today.
Wright and Lord’s commercial clients are not just across North Lancashire, North Yorkshire and South Cumbria but now stretch throughout the UK. From setting up a new business to dealing with the varied issues in a fully developed trade, Wright and Lord’s team of commercial lawyers will help you with all your business relationships.

Easy to use documentation prepared to suit your business

In any business there are legal relationships to manage, whether that is with suppliers, customers, trade organisations or competitors. Wright and Lord are experienced in solving problems with these relationships and, importantly, drafting the legal documentation designed to best avoid them. Having clear easy to read terms and conditions which meet all the many laws and regulations means that your business will not only be well protected but also ready to deal with the outside world in a professional and well organised manner.

Modern terms and conditions many need to include provisions relevant to: Sale of Goods Act, Unfair Contract Terms Act, Electronic Commerce Regulations, Competition Act 1998, Consumer Credit, Equality Act 2010, Consumer Rights Act 2015, Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982, website policies, GDPR etc.

Easy to use documentation can be prepared to suit your business needs and promote your business interests. In most cases we can give you a clear set fee for the advice on what to include and drafting of final documents for your use.

We’ll help you to make better informed decisions

If you have a business to sell or your thinking of buying a business, contact Wright and Lord early in the process because there are several matters to consider which may significantly affect the way you proceed or how you negotiate.

There are many ways to sell and buy a business. Wright & Lord advisors will seek to gain an early understanding of the business as this is crucial to your negotiations and the advice.

Above all we take a pragmatic yet thorough approach, giving advice and guidance throughout, using experience to protect clients from the unseen trip hazards.

    Best Conveyancing & Legal Services Firm in the UK!!!

    When selecting Wright & Lord to provide conveyancing c15 years ago, we were delighted to find that, despite being based 300 miles away from us, they provide a very efficient and personable service for very reasonable fees. Over the years they have handled many property transactions (residential & commercial), with the usual professionalism, to a point where we also used them for wills and other legal or financial services. We have never felt like a “numbered client” as the team are happy for us to know many of them by first names, without straying from their professional duty of care. We are now comfortably retired, having disposed of our property portfolio and would have no hesitation in recommending Wright & Lord as a legal services provider of exceptionally high standards.

    More than legal advisors, a family orientated firm who always goes the extra mile.

    We appreciate your help and guidance which we valued highly when you acted for us.

    Thank you so much for everything you have done for us in sorting my Mum’s estate out in a timely manor and for the way that you kept us informed and up-dated at all stages. The service that you provided was very professional and also very caring. You also made things easy to understand and you made us feel very comfortable, which was a great help to us and I am so grateful that you were our solicitor.

    I would also like to thank you so much for everything you did for my Mum.

    Communication is vital with legal matters so it was encouraging to be able to speak directly with the solicitor acting with us. Very personal service.

    They totally looked after us in a professional, friendly manner. Thank You.

    I always see a friendly face or hear a friendly voice. Nothing is too much trouble.

    Zoe was very friendly & knowledgeable and supported our Daughter, who is autistic through a difficult process with kindness & understanding.
