We will ask questions to understand your circumstances, your objectives, and any key deadlines. Where possible, we will explain the legal issues in plain English, outline your available options, and identify practical next steps. If you choose to proceed, we will confirm the scope of work and how we will handle communication and updates.

Fees depend on the nature, complexity, and urgency of the matter, as well as the time required and the level of specialist input needed. Where appropriate, we may be able to provide an estimate or a fee range, together with likely disbursements (third-party costs such as court fees or searches). We aim to be clear about costs and scope from the outset, and we confirm key information in writing.

Some matters are suitable for fixed fees—typically where the scope is clear and the work is predictable. In other cases, fees may be time-based because the complexity or volume of work cannot be reliably forecast at the start. We will explain what is most appropriate for your matter and why.

This depends on the matter, but as a general guide: bring any contracts, letters, emails, notices, and key documents relevant to the issue. Prepare a short timeline of events and note any deadlines. If there are other parties involved, it helps to provide names, addresses, and any reference numbers.

You can contact us by phone, email, or via our online enquiry form. We will take initial details, confirm next steps, and direct your enquiry to the appropriate member of our team. If the matter is urgent, tell us about any deadlines at the outset.
