"The firm had the ability to offer all the services we needed at a rate that was very attractive when compared to some of their competitors"
A client quote, Legal 500 2006
We do not sub-divide the commercial team, believing that clients benefit from the combined skills of lawyers who have particular strengths in complementary niche areas, but maintain a sufficiently broad skill base to provide continuity of service and advice on a diverse range of client affairs. We believe that this is fundamental to successful cost management, assisting our clients in controlling their legal costs budgets.
We advise on all types of commercial contracts for the provision of goods and services, along with agency and distribution contracts. We also help our business clients to operate effectively and lawfully having due regard to data protection and freedom of information regulations.
Clients include quoted plcs, large manufacturers, telecom companies and high street banks. Although a majority of clients have connections with the Eastern Region, they include both national and international organisations.
"This team is as good as it gets. They are well versed in business practices both in the UK and internationally. Our experience with Birketts has been a good one. We would not hesitate to have them represent us again nor would we hesitate to recommend them to someone else."
Colleen Hallam, Eastech Global Systems Inc.
