Richard is a qualified solicitor, having joined the firm in 1996. He has deliberately restricted his case load to serious injury claims.

Many people at some point may need to seek legal advice and so call on the services of a firm of solicitors if they have been involved in some sort of accident or incident. Solicitors can provide invaluable help and assistance if you need to take some sort of action or bring a case against the person or party responsible for the accident. One element which is particularly important for many people who need the assistance of a solicitor is to have face to face meetings with their solicitor and even home visits if necessary.

The majority of firms of solicitors now offer services on a no win no fee basis which has proven to be a very popular system. Offering this service makes it possible for the majority of people to use a solicitor regardless of their income. While many firms offer this service, not all of them offer a face to face or home visit service.

Meeting with your solicitor in person can help to give your confidence as well as providing reassurance that everything possible is being done. You might find that it is easier to go through various details and have things explained clearly if you meet a solicitor rather than having to communicate by phone or email. Providing a face to face service makes the whole process more personal and can help to put people at ease if they feel nervous about situation at all. Offering a home visit service can also be an added incentive for some clients. Travelling to a solicitor’s office might be difficult for some people or if you are elderly or have been badly injured in an accident then you might be unable to get there for a meeting. A home visit means that all potential clients can be seen and have their case discussed properly.

If you have been injured in an accident and you want to make a claim then you should be able to go ahead with it regardless of whether you can travel to an office or not. If a firm of solicitors offers a home visit service then this can make the process easier for you remove the stress of having to arrange an appointment at an office and making your way there. Having a solicitor see you in your own home will put you at ease and you will be more likely to relax and be able to provide all of the information that is required. If you contact a solicitor with the intention of making a claim then you want to be certain that they will take your case and having a face to face meeting or home visit will provide the opportunity to clarify what will happen and if the firm can help you to make your claim. Using the services of a solicitor will speed up the process of making a claim and seeking compensation and can help to bring it to a happy conclusion which will allow you to get back to your normal life.
