Ross Waldram

Senior Associate

Background & Biography

Ross is a trusted adviser to longstanding clients, offering commercially sensible IP advice beyond just legal assessments. “It’s about guiding clients—whether established businesses like PPL PRS Limited or startups—toward practical solutions,” he explains.

A key focus for Ross is trade mark law, particularly for startups. “Legal support must balance commercial and legal considerations. While you may have grounds to object to a trade mark, sometimes a conversation is more effective than litigation. Clients return to us because we find the simpler, more commercially viable path.”

“My job isn’t about legal tricks—it’s about helping businesses function better and resolving disputes amicably where possible.”

Ross joined the firm as a trainee in 2007 and qualified in 2009. While increasingly focused on IP, he also supports the Employment and Corporate teams with IP-related matters.

A passionate rugby fan, Ross is a Saracens season ticket holder. “I used to play and run more, but now I enjoy watching,” he admits, though he’s completed “the odd marathon” over the years.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a client with Seddons for years and they are truly excellent. My lawyer Odein Willie-Harry is exceptional. She is knowledgeable, always available, kind and considerate and most of all a rock. Selling my house was stressful but the one thing I always knew is that I could rely on her advice and support. I can't thank her and the team enough. Happy New Year Seddons! I will be back when I find a new property 😌

Most efficient , thorough, diligent and excellent work by Lana and Howard at Seddons..managing to secure the purchase of my new home in Ealing.. Not only are they very responsive, helpful, pre active on all the issues throughout, its all done working with a most decent and amiable manner.. After what has been a long complicated journey buying a property I kept the faith with Seddons who have been with me on this quest..and this one went through in rapid time, 8 weeks from offer being accepted to completion... All queries were answered comprehensivley, additional questions and concerns covered and reports provided in good time..I didnt have to chase any answers with them, they were ahead of the game in all areas... Would highly recommend and continue to use Seddons for any legal matters...
