Important Notice

The information provided on this website is for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon as legal advice.

By using this website, you acknowledge and agree to the terms of this disclaimer.


About My Service

I am a UK-qualified solicitor with legal experience in England and Wales.

However, I do not currently practise through a regulated law firm and I do not provide reserved legal activities or formal legal representation.

My services are limited to:

  • Independent legal drafting
  • Document preparation
  • Written guidance
  • Procedural assistance
  • General legal information

No Solicitor-Client Retainer

Use of this website, submission of an enquiry, email correspondence, telephone discussions, or receipt of information from me does not create a solicitor-client relationship, retainer, or contract for legal services.

A formal agreement regarding scope of work and fees must be reached before any paid work is undertaken.


No Reserved Legal Activities

I do not provide reserved legal activities within the meaning of the Legal Services Act 2007.

In particular, I do not:

  • Conduct litigation
  • Issue proceedings on behalf of clients
  • Act as solicitor on the court record
  • Represent clients in court
  • Exercise rights of audience
  • Undertake probate activities
  • Hold client money

Any documents prepared are provided for clients to review, approve, and submit in their own name unless otherwise stated.


No Guarantee of Outcome

Every legal matter depends on its own facts, evidence, applicable law, and the decisions of courts, tribunals, government bodies, regulators, or third parties.

Accordingly, I cannot and do not guarantee:

  • Success in any claim or defence
  • A particular legal outcome
  • Recovery of compensation
  • Acceptance of any document by a court, tribunal, or organisation
  • Any specific timescale

Any views expressed are opinions based on the information available at the time.

I have no control over the content of external websites and accept no responsibility for their content, accuracy, availability, or privacy practices.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, I exclude all liability for any loss, damage, cost, expense, or claim arising directly or indirectly from:

  • Use of this website;
