DON’T SUFFER IN SILENCE

If you are suffering Domestic Abuse we can help you obtain the protection you need to break the cycle.

We can assist you in applying for an injunction, which will prevent your abuser from using or threatening violence and from making threats, pestering or harassing you in the future. Breaching a non-molestation order is now a criminal offence which means the police can be called and that person will be arrested.

If you do not feel safe in your home because of domestic abuse we can also assist you in applying for an order to exclude your abuser not just from the home, but also from the surrounding area. Or if you have been forced to flee the home because of Domestic Abuse, this type of order can help you to move back into your property and exclude the other party.

If you have suffered Domestic Abuse but don’t meet the criteria to apply for emergency orders then we can assist by sending a warning letter to the other party.

Our team has many years of experience in dealing with vulnerable people who are suffering from Domestic Abuse and deal with all matters in a sympathetic and efficient manner. We are here to help you gain the protection you need.

Contact us today for confidential advice on 01782 262424 or send us an email: [email protected]

You can also send a message to us privately via Facebook and we will return your call.

LEGAL AID IS STILL AVAILABLE TO PROTECT YOU FROM DOMESTIC ABUSE.

Do you have a Will?

Have you checked that your existing Will still works for you?

Make your wishes known now!

Making a Will is so important as it ensures that your wishes are known and helps to make what is a very difficult time that little bit less stressful for your family and loved ones. It also ensures that your loved ones are properly provided for and that your estate passes to the people who you want it to go to. You will also be able to choose who to appoint as executors to have overall responsibility, with our help if needed, to deal with your estate in the accordance with your wishes.

It is equally if not more important for you to decide who should inherit your estate when you don’t have any close family.

It is never too early to get your finances in order. Contrary to what many believe, you are never too young to make a Will.

Here at Dicksons, a single Will can be written from as little as £150 per person and £250 for mirror Wills (plus VAT). We do also work with Cancer Research offering their Free Wills Scheme. Please contact us for more information about this.

Each matter is dealt with by one designated lawyer so that you will know who to contact if any queries arise.

For more information please contact our office on 01782 262424
