FAQs
Will my case be dealt with by a Partner?
Yes. All the legal work in our offices is carried out or supervised by a Partner or senior members of our team with whom you will have direct contact at all times. All solicitors in private practice must hold a Practising Certificate issued by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Amongst other things, this ensures that in the unlikely event that anything should go wrong, there is insurance to protect you.
How do I prepare for my initial meeting?
If we have not acted for you before, or even if we have but do not yet have identification evidence for you, you will need to bring to your first interview (1) your passport or modern driving licence with a photograph and (2) a domestic utility account or bank statement showing your current address. We have to have this to comply with very strict anti-money laundering regulations. Where we are acting for you in connection with the purchase of a property, we will also require proof of source of funds.
How quickly will I be able to have an appointment?
According to the urgency of your legal business, you can expect to have an appointment within a matter of days. Naturally, in urgent cases our Partners and senior members of the team will be able to see you out of normal office hours.
How much will it cost?
Charges vary quite substantially between different firms of solicitors for different types of work. Experience and expertise of the solicitor and the complication of the work are crucial factors. By special arrangement we would not charge for the first, short, interview when we would weigh up what is involved in your case. At this stage neither you or our firm would be under any obligation. It is very important however at that stage that both you and we know of the kind of cost your case might involve. You can expect us to provide information about this but, in any event, you should ask. Our terms of business including information about the cost will be confirmed in writing.
