01How we work
Three things we hold to.
Two directors, and one of them is yours
Your matter belongs to a person rather than to a department. You will not be handed to a candidate attorney you have never met, and the person who answers has read the file.
Quoted per stage, in writing
Before a stage begins you know what it costs. You will never receive an invoice for something you did not agree to.
We will tell you when to stop
Sometimes the right advice is that the legal route is not worth what it will cost you. We would rather lose the fee than give you a worse year.
Come and talk to us before you decide anything.
Nothing said in that conversation obliges you to do anything afterwards.
