The City of London at dusk

The law firm for small and growing businesses and their owners — clear advice in plain English, from senior solicitors who tell you what matters and skip what doesn't. Commercial, property, disputes and private client.

Running a business is complicated enough. The law behind it shouldn't be — so we translate it. Buzz Solicitors gives small and growing businesses the calibre of advice the City reserves for big companies: clear, in plain English, at a price that makes sense, from a senior solicitor who actually knows your matter.

Why Buzz Solicitors

Legal advice, minus the complication.

We give small and growing businesses the same calibre of advice as the City firms — in plain English, from a solicitor who knows your matter.

Senior people, start to finish

You deal with an experienced solicitor — not a rotating cast of juniors. The person you meet is the person doing the work, and the person you can call.

Plain English, always

Advice you can act on, not a lecture on the law. We tell you where you stand, what your options are, and what we'd do in your position.

Commercial judgement

We weigh cost, risk and time against what winning really looks like — and we'll tell you honestly when a fight isn't worth having.

Who we help

Built for the businesses the big firms overlook.

We act for the owner-managed businesses, founders and families who need proper legal advice — without a corporate law firm's fees, formality or fog.

Founders & owner-managers

The people who built the business and carry the risk. We're the legal team on call for the contracts, deals and disputes that come with running the show.

Company directors

Directors' duties, board decisions and shareholder relationships — with the personal exposure that comes with the role advised on clearly, before it bites.

Startups & scale-ups

Founders' agreements, funding rounds, customer contracts and IP — the legal foundations a growing company needs, without big-firm fees or big-firm jargon.

Property owners & landlords

Buying, selling, letting and the disputes that come with commercial and residential property — handled by solicitors who keep it moving.

Employers

The contracts, policies and difficult conversations that come with having a team — kept firmly on the right side of the line.

Individuals & families

Wills, powers of attorney, probate and the personal legal matters that protect what you've built — and the people you built it for.

No surprises on cost

Straightforward on price, too.

The thing businesses dread about lawyers isn't the law — it's the bill landing with a number they didn't expect. So we're upfront about cost from the very first conversation.

Clear on cost from the start

We agree the approach and the likely cost with you before any work begins — so you make an informed decision, not a hopeful one.

No nasty surprises

If a matter changes direction, you hear about the cost from us first — never for the first time on an invoice at the end.

A no-obligation first chat

The first conversation costs you nothing but the time. We'll give you a straight view on whether — and how — we can actually help.

The team

Experienced solicitors you'll actually deal with.
