A Lawyer is anyone who practices law, as an advocate, Barrister, Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive. A solicitor is a lawyer who gives legal advice and represents clients in the courts.

Once qualified, solicitors often specialise in one legal area such as family, litigation, property or tax. A lawyer provides the practical application of the legal theories and knowledge required to resolve legal problems, and to advance the interests of clients who require a lawyer to perform legal services.

There are a number of factors to consider.  Firstly, you may want someone who specialises in a particular aspect of the law. You may also wish to consider the proximity of their office to your home.  You may want to use a Solicitor who offers a free initial consultation to discuss your requirements before formally instructing them. Call us on 01245 258 892 to arrange a meeting. If you want to bring someone with you, just let us know. Ask if there is anything in particular you will need to bring or any relevant paperwork so you can cover as much as possible on the day.

We offer a free initial consultation for all of our services so you can meet with a solicitor or specialist with the expertise and experience you need, and who can provide understandable legal advice. Some of our legal services are offered on a fixed fee basis, but for all others, the cost will often be worked out on an hourly rate basis: so the longer it takes, the more it costs. We will give you a cost estimate at the outset, usually at your initial consultation.
