Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some questions that our Wickford branch gets asked: if you need an answer to a question that is not on this list, please contact us for an answer.

Our Wickford office has served South Essex since 1989, combining experienced solicitors with personalised service. Our Wickford team is approachable and friendly, offering fixed fees, highly recommended legal advice, and comprehensive family and property law services throughout the local area.

Added to that, we can also access specialist legal advice through our network for property law, debt recovery, and other legal matters.
Do I need a solicitor to get a divorce?
Although you do not need a solicitor to get a divorce or dissolution, you will benefit from clear legal advice at a stressful time in your life. The advice of a professional divorce solicitor who has experienced many similar situations in the past is invaluable.
Can I just draft a Will myself or fill in a form I found online?
We would strongly advise against drafting your own Will or downloading a pro-forma online. An increasing amount of litigation arises from incorrectly drafted Wills, often Wills drafted by people who are not legally qualified do not do what the person drafting them thinks they do. This can cause significant problems with your loved ones and delays in the event of your death.
Often, it ends up costing far more to rectify any errors than the cost of having your Will professionally drafted.
What is the difference between a conveyancing solicitor and a conveyancer?
When you use a conveyancing solicitor to conveyance your home you can be sure that they are regulated by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA), a member of the Law Society, have degree-level qualifications and at least two years on-the-job training before qualifying as a conveyancing solicitor.
Whereas a conveyancer tends to be regulated by the Council for Licenced Conveyancers (CLC) and is usually less highly qualified, although they can still be perfectly competent.
