Criminal
Unfortunately people do get in trouble with the Police. We have substantial expertise in all areas of criminal law from the most serious High Court cases to relatively
minor District Court cases. It is essential that a solicitor is instructed to protect your interests. At E. Thornton & Co. we will do everything possible to help you.
Matrimonial
Not all relationships last whether its a marriage or a cohabitation problems and disputes can arise. We have extensive experience of dealing with relationship legal problems whether
on divorce or separation. We can ensure that you get your fair share of any assets of the relationship. Even if you only want to talk your situation over to clarify what your options are we will be happy
to outline how the law applies to your situation. Don't worry about what your rights are; contact us and find out.
Children
When a couple break up there are often children involved and most parents are keen to keep in touch. If you are having problems getting to see your children through your ex-partners actions
we may be able to help sort matters out to your satisfaction.
Wills
Few people get round to making wills although many of us think about doing so assuming the money will go where they want anyway. It's a shock to learn but by failing to make a will you could
be leaving your parther or children in a dire financial position. Having worked hard for years it's only right that you should say who benefits from your labours when you pass on. You've earned it after all.
Making a will is cheaper than you might think. We charge £30 for one will or £50 if both partners wish to provide for the future, obviously complicated wills can be slightly more expensive.
Litigation
Its sometimes surprising to learn just how much you may be entitled to if you have been injured. Whether you trip over a raised kerb, are involved in a road traffic accident, are assaulted
or are hurt by a faulty product you may be due compensation. If you have been injured in the last three years and want to find out if you might be entitled to claim, why not contact us.
Consumer
In today's consumer society it often happens that for whatever reason people are not happy with goods or services. With items such as double glazing and cars costing many thousands of pounds getting ripper off
can be an expensive business. Contacting a solicitor will give you a clearer picture of what you are entitled to expect and how to go about getting any money you are due back.
Commercial Services
The business environment can be a minefield whether it's commercial leases, contractual obligations or business start up it pays to be on a good legal footing. E. Thornton & Co can protect your interests
and with our long experience of dealing with small and medium size business's we are well able to appreciate the commercial reality of a situation. Our advice will be based on a grounding of explaining the economics
of a situation as well as the legal technicalities. With our small legal team we are able to give a consistant personal service second to none in both quality and direct contact.
Cost of a Solicitor
Don't be put off about coming to see us for help because of what you think you might have to pay. You may be entitled to legal advice which could cover all or part of your legal costs.
When you come to see us with your query we will check to see if you are entitled to legal aid.
Even if you are not entitled to legal aid hiring a solicitor probably costs less than you would imagine and if we raise a court action on your behalf your opponent may be the one to foot the majority of the bill
if you are successful.
