Andrew & Andrew Solicitors Limited – Portsmouth Atlantic House, 114 Kingston Crescent, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO2 8AL Tel: 023 9267 5555 office@a2law.co.uk Most people will need a solicitor at some point during their lives, whether for a criminal or civil matter. While the work a solicitor does in criminal cases may be well known thanks to TV dramas and high-profile legal cases in the media, the work of a civil law solicitor may not be as clear. However, the work that this type of solicitor does is equally important and solicitors Portsmouth have many areas of expertise. From probate to conveyancing, from family law to personal injury, the work of a civil solicitor is varied and so it is highly probable you may need one to help you get your life back on track at some point. Probate If you need to make a will or if you are named as a ‘personal representative’ of a deceased’s estate, you will need the assistance of a civil solicitor. If you are named as a personal representative of a person’s estate, there are certain legal duties that you must fulfil. This can be a distressing time, as you are grieving for your loved one and so having a solicitor who can take the legal pressure off your shoulders can be extremely reassuring and helpful at such a difficult time. Personal representatives normally have to apply to the courts for a deed that entitles them to deal with the estate, known as a grant of representation. Following this, the finances of the estate must be overseen and solicitors Portsmouth can help to settle any outstanding debts or tax implications, before the rest of the estate is distributed in accordance with a will or intestacy rules. Personal injury You probably know the script: that if you’ve been injured in the last 3 years and it was not your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. While some people may roll their eyes as they hear this for the umpteenth time, the reality is that if you have been hurt, the compensation could be vital to your life, particularly if the injury results in a loss of income. Clients can claim for general damages, special damages, and legal costs. By getting experienced civil solicitors Portsmouth, they will be able to advise what you can claim for and ensure that you are successful in your efforts. Family law Sometimes life gives us obstacles or bumps in the road and a relationship can break down. This normally means that the support of solicitors Portsmouth can be invaluable for helping you to get divorced, make financial arrangements and plans for your children. It can be a very emotionally difficult and stressful period in your life and having solicitors Portsmouth who can take control of the legalities, so you don’t have to can be highly beneficial. Also, they can ensure that while you may not be thinking clearly, you get the fairest deal. Conveyancing If you are thinking of buying or selling your home, a civil solicitor will need to undertake a lot of work for you. Check that the solicitors Portsmouth you choose are members of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) to be sure that they have the gold seal of approval on the work that they do. Solicitors can also help you with other matters such as remortgaging your house and transferring equity from it. Whatever you need solicitors Portsmouth for, contacting a firm who can help with a range of matters may be the way forward for a one stop service to getting your life back on track. ht tps: / /a2so l ic i tors .co .uk / h t tps: / /www. law.ac .uk /employabi l i ty / lega l -pract ice -areas /c iv i l - l i t iga t ion-d ispute - reso lut ion- law/# :~ : tex t=Civ i l%20l i t iga t ion%2Fdispute%20resolut ion%20sol ic i tors ,pre%2D%20and%20post%2Dtr ia l h t tps: / /www.gov.uk / inher i ts -someone-d ies-wi thout -wi l l References :
