Why It Matters

When a document requires independent legal advice, we provide it with clarity, care, and proper legal formality.

We provide solicitor's certificates for independent legal advice where a client needs formal confirmation that they have received clear advice from an independent lawyer — often required for binding financial agreements, guarantees, deeds, and other important legal documents.

Questions, Answered

Independent Legal Advice — common questions

What is a solicitor's certificate?

It's a formal document signed by an independent lawyer confirming that you received clear, independent advice about a document before signing it — often a legal requirement for the document to be valid.

Why do I need independent legal advice?

Certain documents, like binding financial agreements and guarantees, require each party to get advice from their own separate lawyer so that consent is genuine and informed. It protects you and makes the document enforceable.

How quickly can you provide it?

We understand these are often time-sensitive. Contact us with the document and we'll arrange advice and the certificate promptly.
