These terms tell you the rules for using our website at pluslegal.co.uk (our site). By using our site you accept these terms and you agree to comply with the terms. If you do not agree with these terms, do not use our site.
These terms apply to your use of our site only. If we act for you, our engagement letter and our terms of business govern that work. Where our engagement documents differ from these terms, the engagement documents prevail in relation to the work.
Plus Legal Limited operates our site. In these terms Plus Legal Limited is referred to as we, us and our.
Plus Legal Limited is a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17138749. The registered office is at 20 Wenlock Road, London, N1 7GU, England. Plus Legal Limited is not registered for VAT.
You can contact us by email at hello@pluslegal.co.uk or by telephone on +44 20 3740 1254.
Plus Legal Limited is not authorised or regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Peter Lumley-Savile is.
Peter Lumley-Savile is a solicitor of England and Wales, regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority under SRA number 296345. The SRA Principles and the SRA Code of Conduct for Solicitors apply to Peter Lumley-Savile personally in relation to all work carried out through Plus Legal Limited. You can check the register at sra.org.uk.
Because Plus Legal Limited is not an authorised body, we do not carry out reserved legal activities as defined in section 12 of the Legal Services Act 2007. We do not hold client money and we do not operate a client account.
Clients of a business that the Solicitors Regulation Authority does not regulate do not have the same protections as clients of an authorised firm. In particular you have no access to the SRA Compensation Fund. Our engagement letter explains this in full before you instruct us.
If you are a client and you are unhappy with our service, email Peter Lumley-Savile at hello@pluslegal.co.uk. Our engagement letter sets out the complaints procedure and any right you have to take a complaint further.
The content on our site is general information. The content is not advice on which you should rely and the content does not amount to legal advice.
Nothing on our site creates a solicitor and client relationship between you and us. We act for you only once we send you an engagement letter and you accept the engagement letter.
The law changes. We publish content as at the date shown on the content and we do not undertake to update the content afterwards. Take specific advice before you act, or decide not to act, on anything you read on our site.
Do not send us confidential or sensitive information before we confirm in writing that we act for you. We cannot promise to keep unsolicited information confidential. We may already act for another party whose interests are adverse to yours.
We run a conflict of interest check before we accept any instruction. Sending us an enquiry does not create a retainer. Sending us an enquiry does not stop time running under any limitation period.
We will never send you new or changed bank details by email.
If you receive an email that appears to come from us and that asks you to send money to a new account, do not act on the email. Telephone us on +44 20 3740 1254 first, using the number published on this site rather than any number in the email.
Email is not a secure medium. We are not liable for loss caused by the interception, alteration or misuse of an email by a third party, except where the law does not allow us to exclude that liability.

If we delay in enforcing any part of these terms against you, that delay is not a waiver of our rights.
