Over the next few weeks we will be making changes to the Lawyers4u site pages.

Our services will remain as before but simply with a new look for the new year.

Regards,
Lawyers4u.

  13. Every legal professional providing information from this site will be legally qualified and posses a degree in English Law. Your query may be dealt with by a variety of legal professionals, which may include solicitors, legal executives and legal assistants. Therefore information may be provided by a professional who is not a solicitor and will therefore not be a part of the solicitors indemnity fund. If you require the< services of such a solicitor, you should seek to use solicitors from an incorporated practice.
  14. Lawyers4U is a web site providing basic legal information and is not a registered incorporated legal practice. Therefore no user of this site will be entitled to indemnity from the solicitors indemnity fund, as Lawyers4U is not underwritten by the solicitors compensation fund.

If more than 7 working days have passed without a response please send an e-mail regarding the situation to Lawyers4U
  18. Even though the information provided by Lawyers4U may be highly detailed you should not rely or base any future actions on the basis of a single e-mail, as there may be certain situations where the information provided might not be relevant to your current needs. Due to the variety and complicated nature of many situations, it is recommended that a solicitor should always be seen in person.
  19. Information from Lawyers4U does not constitute financial advice for which you should see an Independent Financial Advisor.
  20. Complaints may be made in writing to the Legal Services Manager and sent to Lawyers4U, Address 3rd Floor, 86 – 90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE. A response will be provided within 7 working days.
