Fixed Cost Legal Advice

When most people hear about solicitors’ fees, they feel uncertain, this is not always because solicitors are “expensive” but due to the lack of clarity about how much their legal needs will actually cost. At Witan Solicitors, we’re changing that with our fixed-cost legal advice and second opinion services. We provide 100% transparency, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying and what you’ll receive in return. Our approach ensures high-quality legal support at a price you can trust, often far more affordable than larger competitors. 

Why Choose Fixed Costs for Legal Advice?

Legal matters can be stressful enough without the added uncertainty of escalating costs. Our fixed-cost services offer:

 

  • Transparency: Know exactly what you’ll pay upfront.
  • Affordability: Accessible pricing tailored to your needs.
  • Clarity: Comprehensive advice without hidden fees.
  • Confidence: Make informed decisions with expert guidance.

3 Stages to Legal Clarity 

STAGE 1

Initial appraisal (no time limit – either of us can end whenever), either in person or over the telephone

£0.00

WHAT WE’LL DO:

First off, we’ll assess whether we can help you.  If we can, we’ll explain exactly how we can, what services you’ll need and how much they may cost. In many cases we would need to review correspondence, contracts or other documents to be able to give a more accurate estimate. We may ask you send us these documents before we confirm our quote. 

If we can’t assist, we’ll do our best to place you with a solicitor we think will serve you best. 

STAGE 2

You send us the documents we have requested.

£0.00

WHAT WE’LL DO:

We will initially review the documents with a view to providing you with a more accurate estimate. Please note, we cannot provide any legal advice at this stage. 

STAGE 3

First initial advice meeting

£450.00 plus VAT* and disbursements

WHAT WE’LL DO:

If you’re just after some initial advice on your situation, and what other potential options or strategies you’ve got available to you, this is for you.

£1.250.00 plus VAT* and disbursements

WHAT WE’LL DO:

We will read all the relevant documents you have sent us and will provide you with an analysis of your case, based on the facts and documents you give us.
