Common questions for legal solicitors
We’ve gathered some frequently asked questions for you to bring to your first appointment with your local solicitors.
- How much will this cost? You should never hesitate to ask your lawyer how much the engagement will cost. There are many uncertainties in dispute resolution so take some time to understand the potential costs involved.
- Do I have to go to court? Court hearings often have a financial and emotional burden on each party. It would be best to settle the matter fairly and privately. Your barrister should focus on resolving the matter promptly and at minimal cost.
- What happens after the initial consultation? During the consultation, your lawyer will provide feedback and options for you to take moving forward.
