At access law we believe that:-
* The law should be accessible to everyone equally;
* Lawyers can still be approachable and caring without compromising their professionalism;
* Our services should be as inclusive as possible, covering most circumstances that a person may find themselves in throughout their lifetime;
* As a business, the best way to succeed is to meet the needs of our clients and exceed their expectations;
* The greatest advertisement is a satisfied client

Costs

Many people are concerned about the cost of legal assistance, particularly "hidden costs".
At access law we believe that the best approach to finances is to be as "up front" as possible. So whatever your needs, we'll always endeavour to give you an estimate of the likely costs involved. Conveyancing clients will receive a written quote of ALL likely costs on request; all others, where appropriate, will be kept fully informed of costs as their case progresses, so there'll be no unpleasant surprises!
We provide free advice and information by email and a Fixed Fee Advice Scheme providing 30 minutes initial consultation for £10 (see details on our website)
