Services Provided
This website provides information about legal assistance services for benefits and pension applications. The services include consultation, application support, and representation for benefits-related matters in Edinburgh and surrounding areas.
Professional Relationship
A professional relationship is established only when you formally engage our services through a written agreement. Browsing this website, submitting a contact form, or initial consultations do not automatically create a formal client relationship.

While we strive to provide accurate and current information, benefits regulations and policies change frequently. The information on this website is for general guidance only and should not be considered definitive legal advice.
You should not rely solely on website content for decisions about your benefits claims. We recommend consulting directly with us for advice specific to your circumstances.
No Guarantees
We cannot guarantee specific outcomes for benefits applications or appeals. Each case is assessed individually by government agencies and tribunals based on specific circumstances and applicable criteria. Results vary depending on individual situations and the evidence available.
Service Fees
Fees for our services are outlined on the Services page. All fees are quoted in British Pounds and are due as agreed in your service contract. Fees are based on the complexity and time required for each service.

- Provide accurate and complete information about your circumstances
- Respond promptly to requests for documentation or information

- Inform us immediately of any changes to your situation that may affect your claim

Termination
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to our website and services at our discretion, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms of Use or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.
Governing Law
These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of this website shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
