People denied access to family justice in the wake of the latest legal aid cuts could resort to "self-help", including violence, Lord Clarke, the Master of the Rolls, has warned.
"It is dangerous because if the family and civil justice systems were inadequate to the task of determining such disputes fairly, impartially and at a cost that litigants could afford, those litigants might lose such confidence in them that they would resort to self-help.
"Resort to self-help could take a benign form. It could, however, also take anything but a benign form. It could see the law not being applied by court decisions but through violence and the threat of violence.

When asking or a service ask them what they think they can do for you. You should also ask for an estimate.
Before you select the lawyer, you must compare their fees carefully. You need to check whether there is any fee required to evaluate your claim. At the same time, you must find out how the consultation fee is calculated.
