Real feedback from business owners using Clearly Business Law for practical, approachable legal support.

“We are delighted to have supported Relode in their important funding round in 2025. Relode is delivering exactly the kind of clean-energy infrastructure the UK needs if it is to meet its net-zero goals, and we’re proud to play a part in that transition. This transaction reflects the type of work where our background in leading law firms, combined with our hands-on, partner-led approach, enables us to provide pragmatic advice to growing businesses and their founders.

“Clearly Business Law played a vital role in helping us complete our most recent funding round smoothly and on schedule. Their team brought a clear, commercially minded approach to every stage of the process, giving us confidence that the legal fundamentals were in expert hands. Their responsiveness, practicality, and understanding of our business made them an invaluable and trusted partner. We’re grateful for their support and look forward to continuing the relationship as Relode expands its Power Park network across the UK.”

Questions about the Introductory Retainer?

A clear, focused way to access legal support when you need it. Here are answers to some of the questions businesses ask before getting started.

Is the Introductory Retainer right for my business?

It is designed for businesses with a specific legal task or defined requirement, such as reviewing a contract, updating terms and conditions or putting key documents in place.

What type of legal work can you help with?

Support can include contract reviews, terms and conditions, supplier agreements, business documents and practical commercial legal guidance. The exact work is agreed with you before anything begins.

How much does it cost?

The Introductory Retainer starts from £199 per month. Once we understand what you need, we will confirm the scope, likely timescales and costs before work starts.

Will I know how long the work will take?

Yes. We will agree a clear timescale based on the task and its complexity, so you know what to expect from the outset.

Do I need to commit to ongoing legal support?

No. This package is intended for focused legal support around a specific need, without committing to a larger or long-term legal arrangement.

What happens if my legal needs become more complex?

If your requirements change or you need more regular support, we can talk you through the most suitable next step, including our Monthly Legal Retainer or Bespoke Legal Support.
