If you are currently facing a legal issue but wish to gain some more information on the options available to you before instructing a solicitor, you may find it beneficial to make an appointment with your local citizens advice bureau. Your advisor will be able to give you advice for free, but strictly on a one-off basis and will not be able to act as a replacement for a solicitor.
The Harpenden council website is available to the public to gain insight on the local area. On their site you will find useful information regarding housing options in Harpenden, educational facilities, employment opportunities and health services available to you.
At Neves, we aim to resolve legal issues outside of court, using tactics such as mediation to secure a fair outcome while keepings the costs of court at bay. However, we recognise that this is not always possible, and if you are in need of representation and strategic advice through court proceedings you can rely on our team to protect your interests.
I have always found Neves to be professional, courteous and efficient. I would definitely recommend Neves to others.
