Transport Terms & Conditions
Terms and conditions govern almost all business relationships in the transport and logistics sector. Well drafted terms and conditions will put your business is a stronger trading position and will provide certainty and peace of mind for both you and your customers.
It may be that your transport business is struggling under terms and conditions pushed on you by another party. We can seek to review and renegotiate these terms and conditions, whilst protecting your commercial relationships and good will.
We can also review any new terms and conditions that you are being asked to sign, advise you on any areas of concern, and propose alternatives.
We can also draft new terms and conditions for you to use with your customers, suppliers, or contractors.
Our commercial transport and logistics team take a straightforward, commercial approach to drafting or renegotiating terms and conditions.

We had an excellent experience working with Amelia. She helped us with setting up trusts for our properties, gifting a property, and preparing our wills, all handled with great professionalism and clarity. Everything was completed to a tight deadline and Amelia ensured the process ran smoothly from start to finish. She also linked us with an accountant and arranged the necessary documentation for related activities and ongoing financial management, which made everything seamless and stress-free. We felt well supported throughout and would highly recommend Amelia’s services.

The final run up to completion of our sale was very stressful but we were helped by Luisa, Abbey's assistant. She maintained contact with us and updated us at each stage, extremely calm, empathetic and approachable at all times. She went out of her way to find information for us and keep us informed of the progress.

We have recently instructed Rothera Bray for the sale of our house and purchase of our new home. It has been a challenging sequence of events, for various reasons outside of our control, but Abbey Freeman has guided us through it, giving us information and explanations very clearly and answering our questions in a timely manner.

We asked Rothera Bray Solicitors - West Bridgford to write our wills and received excellent service and guidance from Talita Fantauzzi. She was professional and friendly in delivering the advice we needed. We would definitely recommend Rothera Bray Solicitors and would use them for any future legal advice and work we may require.

I had a really positive experience dealing with George on my settlement agreement. Has was friendly, efficient, and explained everything clearly in plain English, which made the whole process feel much less daunting. Communication was excellent throughout. I was kept informed at every stage and any questions I had were answered promptly. The process was handled quickly and professionally. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

We recently moved house and Julekha and team were amazing. We were kept well informed throughout the selling & buying process and they worked hard to achieve a very tight deadline.

I purchased my first home with an ex-partner and needed to get an equity transfer completed. The situation was very messy and chaotic involving Help to Buy. Lucy and Karen were beyond helpful in explaining everything and dealing with Help to Buy when they were being not very helpful and slow. I feel that the whole drama would be ongoing without their expertise and help. Thank you.

We enjoyed exceptionally good service from Rothera Bray. Jackie Murphy who handled our conveyancing was outstanding. She is highly professional and dealt with enquiries promptly, often on the same day! Her communication was very good and we always felt well informed. I'd have no hesitation in calling on Rothera Bray again.

A brilliant experience from start to finish. A fallen through chain and a few complications on the way, but the service provided was fantastic. Rothera Bray were clear and helpful at all times. Would highly recommend to anyone.

I can highly recommend George Cokkinos at Rothera Bray for advice on a settlement agreement. George took the time to fully understand my situation before giving clear and appropriate advice. He was transparent on fees, kept me updated throughout and handled correspondence with my former employer efficiently. The outcome was positive and the process felt well managed from start to finish.
