What We Do
Who we help
We help individuals and small businesses with the legal problems of everyday life.
We have designed our services to remove the barriers that stop people getting legal help.
In particular, we provide
- Help over the telephone, by videoconference and by email
- An initial fixed fee advice service with written advice about your options
- A flexible way of working with you where you choose how much you use our service to get best value
- Transparent pricing, so you know exactly what our service will cost
- Same day or next day service.
Our services are particularly useful to people who:
- Need to know where to start with using the law to solve a problem, or
- Need an affordable alternative to the traditional way of engaging a lawyer for full representation.
