Website Design and Solicitors Injury When considering a website for your company there are many factors to consider. This can be very confusing and extremely time consuming, so we aim to take the strain from you by guiding you through step by step, discussing all the options in an informal and easy to understand manner.
Getting Personal Injury Legal Advice Solicitors are not the only people who can provide legal advice. Legal help may be available from advice centres, such as the Citizens Advice Bureaux and law centres You may act for yourself in court proceedings or, if you are acting for yourself, you may have a friend or lay representative to assist you in court. If you need a Solicitor you should choose one who has experience in the appropriate area of law.
A local advice agency such as a law centre or Citizens Advice Bureau, should be able to recommend local solicitors who are experienced in the appropriate area of law or will be able to provide information on how to find a suitable solicitor. In some cases, a CAB can refer you to an organisation that can offer free legal help. You can also find details of solicitors on the Law Society website. If you are at a police station, or have been charged with an imprisonable offence, you can obtain free legal advice under the duty solicitors’ scheme. If you are at the magistrates or youth court, the arrangements for providing the solicitor will vary. In Northern Ireland, Belfast Magistrates' Court is the only magistrates’ court with a duty solicitor's scheme.
When you have chosen your solicitor, you will need to make an appointment. This will usually be within five working days. If the matter is urgent the solicitor should try and arrange an earlier appointment.
You should take all relevant documents to the appointment and it may be helpful to prepare a list of questions for the solicitor in advance. For some cases solicitors will require identification from you before they can act. This applies, for example, to transactions involving more than £10,000, such as a house purchase. Identification can include a current passport, driving license or benefit book. A recent utilities bill will also have to be provided. If you do not have this sort of identification you should check with the solicitor how best to prove your identity.
The Law Society has also produced a document called The Client's Charter, which tells you what you can expect from your solicitors and what to do if you want to make a complaint. Your solicitors do not have to give you a copy of this charter, but it is considered good practice for them to do so. You should make sure you understand what the solicitor has told you and should not be afraid to ask questions. During the case the solicitor should keep you regularly informed of progress and costs even if there are no significant developments.
