the quiet way in

Start in your own time

You won't get an automatic email the moment you look at this page. Read what we will ask and why, then begin in whichever way feels safest, quietly in writing or with a ten-minute call.

If today is not safe, or papers have arrived with a date on them, skip everything below and call. Urgent matters are heard the same day.

  1. we will ask · one

    Which matter this is

    Divorce, parenting, property, protection or mediation. One word is enough. We ask so the right lawyer reads it first.

  2. we will ask · two

    How urgent it is

    Deadlines, court dates, safety. We ask so nothing with a clock on it waits behind something without one.

  3. we will ask · three

    Both full names

    Yours and your former partner's. We ask so we can check for conflicts before you tell us anything private. If we cannot act, we say so before you have shared a thing.

  4. we will ask · four

    What has been happening

    Write in your own words, as short or as long as you need. We ask so your first hour is spent on advice rather than background.

  5. we will ask · five

    Safe ways to reach you

    Which numbers are safe, whether voicemail is okay, what the envelope should look like. We ask because on a shared phone, privacy is safety.

  6. we will ask · six

    When you could come in

    A morning, an afternoon, after the school run. We ask so the first appointment lands inside your actual life.

Begin quietly, in writing

Write as much or as little as you want, tonight or at 2am. A lawyer reads it personally and replies within one business day, to the safe address you choose.

First appointment: a fixed $240, credited to your first invoice if we act for you.
