Practice

How it works
Five simple steps, no surprises.
- 1
Day one
You write, call or WhatsApp
Tell us in a few lines what has happened. We reply the same working day with what to send and when we can meet.
- 2
Before we meet
We read the papers first
You send scans of whatever you have. We read them before the meeting, so the hour is spent on your matter, not on catching up.
- 3
The consultation
Options, plainly
At chambers or by video, in the language you prefer. What the law says, what your choices are, and what each would involve.
- 4
In writing
Scope and fee confirmed
If you want us to act, you get the scope and the fee in writing, stage by stage. Government charges are shown separately, at actuals.
- 5
Then
We act — and report back
Drafting, registration, filing or appearing. After every step or hearing you get a short note: what happened, and what comes next.
