A couple of years ago a familiar problem came to a head. My firm was asked to represent a client at adistant court. No one from our office was free to go there, so we started phoning barristers’chambers and other solicitors.Forty phone calls later we gave up. Nobody could be found to represent the client. This wasparticularly frustrating because the court in question is very busy. Doubtless there were manylawyers who could have helped. But we did not know who they were, and they did not know wewere looking for them.To solve this familiar problem I enlisted specialist help and set about devising the website whichbecame AvailableLawyers.co.uk. Extensive testing has ensured that the site functions asplanned. Early feedback has been very positive. Users throughout the profession recognise howthe website can help them.
