Decades of combined experience across public, private, and third sector enables our solicitors to support you with an array of legal matters. Be it litigation on your behalf, securing intellectual property rights, or negotiation, Irwell Law prides itself on protecting businesses like yours.
Contracts and agreements
Each business is different with varying needs. We craft our approaches to suit your circumstances. Our specialist solicitors are equipped for any scenario of contract law.
Our team tailor terms for commercial contracts that meet your demands and protect against potential legal problems. As AI develops, presenting challenges and benefits, so do we. We respond by creating reactive, innovative legal solutions to tackle complex legal issues.
Poorly drafted contracts and agreements leave businesses vulnerable. We protect you with:
- Creating commercial contracts that are short form for customers or specialised for complex transactions.
- Negotiating the terms or renewal of existing contracts; identifying risks and ensuring they’re mitigated or removed and promoting prosperous relationships.
- Resolving disputes and avoiding escalation—but with the knowledge we’re ready to respond if necessary.
While you focus on ensuring the smooth operation of your business, we deal with issues with suppliers/purchasers. We support you with:
- Enforcing contractual terms.
- Resolving supplier issues.
Working on your behalf, we achieve the best outcome for you whilst preserving a positive rapport with your suppliers.
Without proper intellectual property measures in place, your company could be victim to competitors stealing information and ultimately stunting your growth. Irwell Law commercialises your intellectual property, allowing you to achieve your objectives.

Slander and libel have dire consequences and can result in irreparable damage to your reputation. Furthermore, the financial repercussions can be grave. We’re diligent in our pursuit of your desired outcome.
We assist with:
- Libel, slander and malicious falsehoods.
- Pre-publication support.
- Cease and desist actions.

Irrespective of company size and circumstance, businesses are likely to require legal advice or defence. Should that time arrive, our lawyers deliver:
- All aspects of court forms, applications, and CPR compliance.
- ADR, including court mandated mediation, arbitration, and without prejudice negotiations.
- Formal claim pleadings and defence.
- Court advocacy and representation.
Injunctive proceedings
Injunctions are a pre-emptive measure that prohibit certain actions by the courts. They’re typically used in emergency situations, which can be challenging and expensive, but necessary to protect against irreversible damage.
Not only do we advise during proceedings, we manage them, protecting you from consequence and cost.
Restrictive covenants exist in most businesses, but to enforce them, a complex set of factors must be satisfied. It’s vital they’re carefully drafted and justified against your company’s interests.
If things go awry, we react with:
- Enforcement of confidentiality clauses.
- Enforcement of non-solicitation, non-compete and competition clauses.
- Cease and desist.
- Undertakings.
