Lawyers2you brings lawyers and legal advice to you, on your terms when, where and how you want it and at a clear, fixed fee price.
On Monday 5th September 2011, Lawyers2you launched its first national franchise in Hampshire, with mobile stands positioned in West Quay shopping centre; Swan Centre and soon to be opening in Castle Point shopping centre, Dorset on the 17th October 2011.
The mobile stands are designed to give the local public access to free initial legal advice, through their friendly representatives and informative brochures.
Lawyers2you understand that whilst many people have legal problems, they often may hesitate in addressing them as they are nervous about the legal process, anxious as to costs or they simply don’t have the time to seek help. That’s why Lawyers2you are visiting your local towns and shopping centres, making legal services more accessible to everyone.
After the initial meet and greet with a Lawyers2you representative, whereby brief detail of the enquiry will be taken, potential clients will then speak to an Advisor in the specialist “Listening Centre” who will attentively listen to the legal problem before providing the required free initial advice.
If the legal problem cannot be resolved simply by way of general advice, and the services of a lawyer are likely to be needed then we will arrange for the enquirer to talk over the telephone or to meet with a local lawyer at a time that is convenient to them.
Lawyers2you have joined forces with local Law firm, Kiteleys, who have offices in both Southampton and Bournemouth. Kiteley’s Managing Director Mark Kiteley says,
“It has been a real pleasure to be part of the growth of the most exciting brand in legal services. It has given me the opportunity to engage with clients who were unwilling or unable to visit a "traditional' solicitors office, providing them with free legal advice, and offering legal services at transparent all inclusive prices. For us it’s all about reaching out to clients and making it as easy as possible for them to speak to a solicitor.”
The Lawyers2you scheme allows lawyers to engage with the public in a new and different way. The Franchise has been set up by the managing partner of Law firm Blakemores, Guy Barnett. Barnett aims for Lawyers2you to become a common place brand across the whole of the UK so as to ensure that everybody in the UK has an easy and accessible medium to attain initial free legal advice. Alongside this, plans are in place to extend into Europe and North America.
Lawyers2you will work with customers to solve their problem in the most cost effective way by listening more, caring more and giving them more value.
