Six areas of law, handled by the people who know them best

Each matter has one lawyer in charge from the first call to the last letter. Where a case touches two areas, two of us work on it together.

Employment law

Dismissals, settlement agreements, contracts of employment and disputes about pay, for staff and for employers.

Family law

Separation, divorce, maintenance and arrangements for children, handled calmly and with an eye on costs.

Property law

Buying and selling homes and land, boundary questions and disputes with builders or neighbours.

Business and contracts

Terms and conditions, supplier and customer contracts, company formation and disputes between partners.

Wills and estates

Wills, powers of attorney and the administration of an estate, explained in plain words for the whole family.

Tenancy law

Rent increases, deposits, repairs and notices, for tenants and for private landlords.

We read the documents before we give an opinion

A good first assessment needs the contract, the letters and the dates. Bring what you have to the first meeting and we tell you where you stand, what it will cost and what we would do next.

Then one hour with the lawyer in charge.

How we take on a matter, in four steps

01

First call

Tell us in a few sentences what happened. We check for conflicts of interest and arrange a meeting within a week.

02

First meeting

One hour with the lawyer in charge, at a fixed fee, in our office or by video call.

03

Written estimate

Within three working days you receive our view, the next steps and the expected costs in writing.

04

Your decision

Nothing happens until you agree. Many matters end with one well written letter.
