What happens if I drive without insurance?
Driving without insurance can result in fines, penalty points, or a driving ban. If you were mistakenly uninsured, we can present a defence to reduce the penalties.
What happens if I die without a will?
If you pass away without a will, your assets will be distributed under intestacy rules, which may not align with your wishes. This can also lead to complications and delays in administering your estate.
What happens if a loved one loses mental capacity and does not have an LPA?
If no LPA is in place, you may need to apply to the Court of Protection for the legal right to manage their affairs, which can be a lengthy and costly process.
What evidence do I need to support my claim?
Strong evidence includes medical reports, accident reports, witness statements, photos of injuries, and any relevant financial losses (such as medical expenses or lost wages).
What does No Win, No Fee mean?
A No Win, No Fee agreement means you don’t have to pay legal fees unless we win your case and secure compensation for you.
What does divorce involve?

The process includes:

- A 20-week reflection period
- Receiving a Conditional Order
- Receiving a Final Order to legally end the marriage
Our approachable divorce solicitors will guide you through every stage, making the process clearer and less stressful.
