Finding Legal Help
Choosing the right solicitor can feel daunting. This guide covers what to think about before you instruct one of our team.
Do You Need a Solicitor?
Not every legal question requires a solicitor. For simple matters, free guidance from a citizens' advice service may be enough. For anything involving contracts, disputes, property, or court proceedings, a qualified solicitor is usually the right choice.
Choosing the Right Professional
Look for a solicitor with relevant experience in your type of issue, ask about likely costs and timescales upfront, and check whether they offer a free initial consultation.
Checking Before You Instruct Someone
Before instructing anyone, check their experience and practice area, and don't be afraid to ask questions about how your matter will be handled.
