Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our legal services and how we can assist you with your matters

We provide comprehensive legal assistance across multiple practice areas including property law, contract disputes, employment matters, family law, and business consultancy. Our team consists of solicitors with specific expertise in each field, ensuring you receive guidance from professionals who understand the nuances of your particular situation. Whether you need help with residential conveyancing in London, reviewing commercial agreements, or resolving workplace issues, we have the knowledge and experience to support your needs effectively.

Our fees vary depending on the complexity and type of legal matter. We offer transparent pricing with three main billing structures: fixed fees for straightforward matters like standard property purchases, hourly rates for ongoing cases that require flexible engagement, and contingency arrangements where applicable. During your initial consultation, we provide a clear breakdown of expected costs with no hidden charges. For many services, we can quote a fixed price upfront, giving you certainty about your investment. We also discuss payment plans for clients who need financial flexibility.

While our office at 27 Elm Park Road in London is available for face-to-face meetings, many clients prefer the convenience of remote consultations. We conduct video conferences, phone calls, and email correspondence to accommodate your schedule and location. Documents can be shared securely through our encrypted portal, and electronic signatures are accepted for most agreements. However, certain matters may benefit from in-person meetings, particularly complex cases requiring detailed document review. We adapt our approach to what works best for you while maintaining the same level of attention regardless of how we communicate.

Timelines differ significantly based on the nature of your case. Simple contract reviews might be completed within 3-5 business days, while residential property transactions typically take 8-12 weeks from instruction to completion. Litigation matters can extend from several months to over a year depending on court schedules and case complexity. During your initial consultation, we provide realistic timeframes based on our experience with similar cases. We keep you informed of progress at every stage and work efficiently to resolve matters as quickly as possible without compromising the quality of our work or your interests.

Preparation helps us use your consultation time effectively. Bring any relevant documents such as contracts, correspondence, court papers, or property deeds related to your matter. A written timeline of events can be helpful, along with names and contact details of other parties involved. If you have questions or concerns, write them down beforehand so we can address each one. For property matters, bring proof of identity and address as we need these for compliance purposes. Even if you don't have all documents, we can still proceed with the consultation and request additional materials later as needed.

Absolutely. Solicitor-client privilege protects all communications between you and our firm. This means anything you tell us remains confidential and cannot be disclosed without your permission, with very limited exceptions required by law. We maintain strict data protection standards compliant with UK GDPR regulations. Our secure systems ensure your personal information and case details are protected. This confidentiality extends to all members of our team who may work on your matter. You can speak freely about your situation, knowing that your privacy is our priority and protected by both professional ethics and legal requirements.

We understand that some situations require immediate attention. For urgent matters such as pending court deadlines, property completion dates, or time-sensitive disputes, we offer expedited services. Contact us by phone at +44 20 7349 1820 during business hours, and we will prioritise your case. In many instances, we can arrange same-day or next-day consultations for emergencies. Our team is experienced in working under tight timelines and can mobilise quickly when circumstances demand it. While we cannot guarantee specific outcomes, we commit to responding promptly and taking all necessary steps to protect your interests when time is critical.

Client satisfaction is central to our practice. If you have concerns about any aspect of our service, we encourage you to raise them immediately with your assigned solicitor or our practice manager. We have an internal complaints procedure designed to address issues quickly and fairly. Most concerns can be resolved through direct discussion. If you remain dissatisfied after our internal process, you have the right to contact the Legal Ombudsman, an independent body that reviews complaints about legal services. We are also regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, which sets standards for our profession. We view feedback as an opportunity to improve and take all concerns seriously.

Yes, we work with both private clients and businesses of various sizes across London and the wider UK. For companies, we provide contract drafting and negotiation, commercial property transactions, employment law compliance, partnership agreements, and dispute resolution. We understand the commercial pressures businesses face and structure our advice accordingly, balancing legal protection with practical business needs. Whether you are a sole trader, small enterprise, or established company, we tailor our services to your specific circumstances. Many of our business clients value our ability to explain legal concepts in straightforward terms and provide actionable guidance that supports their objectives.

Our Foundation

Clearhomeinsights was founded by three solicitors who shared a vision: to provide accessible legal support without compromising on quality. Starting from a modest office on Elm Park Road, we focused on building relationships with clients rather than chasing volume.

What began as a practice handling residential conveyancing and family matters has expanded to cover commercial law, employment disputes, and estate planning. Our growth reflects the trust placed in us by over 2,400 clients who have sought our counsel over the past eight years.

Today, our team includes twelve qualified solicitors and six support staff, each bringing specific expertise to serve diverse legal needs. We maintain our original commitment: clear communication, thorough preparation, and honest advice.

Our Vision

To be recognized as a firm where clients receive competent representation and straightforward guidance. We seek to expand our capabilities while maintaining the personal attention that defines our practice. Growth means serving more people effectively, not diluting the quality of our work.

We have completed over 800 property transactions, assisted 350 families with estate planning, and represented clients in 120 employment matters. These numbers reflect consistent work rather than exceptional achievement.

Our practice areas include residential and commercial conveyancing, wills and probate, family law, employment disputes, and contract review. We work with barristers when cases require specialist advocacy or complex litigation.
