Has your lawyer disappeared?

Suddenly being unable to contact your solicitor, or reading that they have closed, is very distressing, especially if the matter they were dealing with for you had a critical date or if you were waiting for crucial advice. If you have received poor advice and it has caused you loss, you may be able to bring a claim against your solicitor for professional negligence.

Our leading commercial litigation team, ranked as Band 1 in the Chambers Legal Directory for professional negligence, is experienced in this sort of claim - even if your solicitor has gone out of business.
