My interview on the advantages of Direct Access
Why should I use Direct Access?
Reason one
If you have ever used a solicitor before, you will have had to deal with partners, trainees and secretaries along the way. Because of the way I work, you will only deal with me – in relation to everything – directly.
Reason two
It is a faster service because you come direct.
Reason three
It is proven to be a much cheaper service.
