The Legal Lab is a unique user friendly clinic designed to integrate an element of pro bono work into a reduced set of fees. The clinic provides a variety of sessions and also acts as a diagnostic centre to identify legal issues and help clients identify the correct next steps. There is a common myth, that the more expensive the lawyer, the better they will be, I believe in the opposite, the more experienced and knowledgeable the lawyer, the better they will be. I am committed to keeping litigants legal fees down and enabling them to access justice, which I pride myself on.  After launching the reduced fee consultation and given its popularity, I have put my teaching background in education to use to help people access justice more cost effectively. As a result, I have created a variety of unique packages to assist clients in taking expert legal advice from me and not being out of pocket. Pancho, my chocolate Labrador sits in the clinic with me and provides therapy to all and he contributes to the calm ambience of the clinic. Due to the popularity of the clinic, appointments get booked quickly, you are therefore guided to book in advance to avoid disappointment.  Appointments open at the start of each month for that month only. Due to popularity and other committment, the clinic will operate on a request appointment basis as of July 2026.
