Legal Services
First and foremost, the lawyers at Sewell Law are experienced litigators having practiced for many years.
This has significant advantages for the firm's clients.
We are in the unique position of having knowledge of a broad range of industry sectors and expertise in several areas of law. Drawing upon that experience we assist our clients with anticipating legal issues that may subsequently impact them or their business, with a view to avoiding future litigation.
Foresight is better than hindsight. We keep abreast of legal developments and use our e-shots, articles, news bulletins and seminars to ensure our clients are aware of any updates that could impact them or their business.
We are often instructed by clients to provide services
that may not be the subject of a dispute. It could be from
something as simple as advising on the distance selling
regulations or a contractual clause to drafting entire commercial
contracts for the sale and supply of goods and services:
Including issues on incorporation, standard terms, interpretation
and boilerplate clauses.

distance selling.
