Can’t Live With Or Without Them

That’s not a reference to your other half but this time we are talking about solicitors. At some time or other in your life you are likely to need one and he or she may win you some compensation and you’ll think he or she is your new best mate.

On the other hand, if you are in court and the prosecuting barrister is giving you a hard time he can be your worst enemy.

Generally, despite the quote in Shakespeare’s Henry VI, we need the law from policemen to High Court judges to live in an ordered society and when we need the law we are quick to run to it for help.

Nobody in their right mind would contemplate buying and selling a property without the involvement of a local lawyer. When it comes to property it certainly helps that the solicitor is familiar with the local area.

Solicitors Preston are the right ones for any Lancashire property buying and selling although that does not mean they are restricted to this part of the world as they could be acting for someone selling up in Preston and buying in Kent.



Solicitors are members of one of the oldest professions and also have a habit of making up the vast majority of any single profession in the Houses of Parliament.

Maybe this is because knowledge of constitutional law is necessary to understanding politics although that doesn’t explain how a ship’s steward got to be Deputy Prime Minister some time ago.

Conveyance and litigation are the bread and butter of most provincial legal practices and spare some sympathy for lawyers who are criticized by their clients over any delay in buying or selling especially if it is no fault of their own.

This is because people selling their home happily give the estate agent a great deal more in commission for what is basically placing property details on the internet and local newspapers.

The solicitor can mess up and be struck off but the estate agent can make a complete cock-up and carry on whistling to work.
