The benefits & meaning of a McKenzie Friend
An Affordable Alternative To Traditional Family Solicitors
McKenzie Friend in Leicester, Leicestershire, and the rest of England
There is the traditional route to the courtroom. Instruct an expensive solicitor and then they will instruct an expensive barrister. The expensive solicitor will do whatever they can to make sure your argument is fought for you regardless of time lapse, damage to all parties, and cost. The barrister you are paying for will attend every hearing, and at some it will look like they are not doing much because they aren't. The barrister will be briefed by your solicitor so you may not meet them for the first time until an hour before your hearing. Essentially you are going into court with a stranger and being asked to put your trust in them.
Alternatively…
There is McKenzie Picave. We take your instructions and then we involve you in every step of the journey. We discuss all the options and the decisions with you as they arise. We are taking this journey together. Then we do what your solicitor will never do. We use our experience to tell you which battles are worth fighting and which aren't. You may disagree with us but we have a simple objective to get you to the finish line and ensure you are amongst the winners. To get you to the finish line with the minimum of damage. Damage to your mental health, damage to your bank account, damage to your children.
Barristers? We have a partnership with a Chamber of barristers who cover England and Wales, just as we do. We know our barrister partners. We know how they work and they know how we work. Just as we know them, you will know them. Not an hour before the hearing, but well in advance so you know you can trust them just as you trust us.
