Practical advice and support

We don’t deliver legal advice in a vacuum. We always ensure that the advice and support that we provide is of real practical benefit. We will help to identify your objectives and will work closely with you to achieve these.

Friendly and personal service

Research shows that clients are often put off calling lawyers because they are seen as remote and unapproachable. We aim to change all that. Our approach is always down to earth. We appreciate that legal issues can seem complex and can be stressful and we always aim to minimse these effects. Many of our clients have already established long term relationships with us. This enables us to really get to know our client’s businesses and add value.

Cost effective

Our size enables us to be cost effective.

Our basis of charging is simple and straightforward and we always ensure that this is explained fully. We will agree fixed fees in advance where possible or provide realistic estimates of costs.

We are always up front and realistic about costs.
