Why Instruct A Litigation Solicitor?

With the cost of living rising, and costly litigation harder to justify, there are still many benefits to instructing a solicitor to assist you (whether as claimant or defendant) with progressing your litigation:

1. Legal Knowledge and Experience: The bottom line is that some claims and defences rely upon laws that are complex! An experienced litigation solicitor will be able to understand the nuances of the law underlying the matter.
2. Strategic planning and management: A solicitor will formulate a strategic plan concerning your case, including estimating the time frame of the litigation process, assessing possible outcomes, and identifying potential risks and benefits. There are many ways to progress a claim, and perhaps some of your arguments are stronger than others!
3. Positive outcomes: Careful planning, attention to detail, and the ability to provide persuasive arguments to court all increase your chances of sucess. The solicitor also provides an objective perspective and will point out where your position may be weak.
4. Streamlining: A solicitor who has experience in litigation can help you avoid mistakes that could lead to costly delays. They will know which arguments to pursue, and which ones to forgo, likely resulting in fewer hearings and fewer hiccups on the way to Trial. Their experience enables them to provide appropriate guidance through the labyrinthine litigation process
5. Legal Representation: A solicitor can represent you in court or in negotiations, which can be utterly crucial. They can effectively communicate your circumstances, desires, and legal arguments, and also help advise on why offers many be advisabel to make or accept.
