    Will my personal information be kept private?

    Solicitors are bound by professional duties of confidentiality. The form uses Web3Forms to deliver your enquiry, so read the privacy notice before submitting and share only a brief outline. Sending this form does not itself create a solicitor-client relationship.

    Can someone else contact you on my behalf?

    Yes. A family member, partner, or trusted friend can make the initial enquiry on your behalf. The survivor will need to give their own instructions before any legal work begins, but someone close to you is welcome to start the conversation.

    What information should I provide in my first enquiry?

    Share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. Helpful details include when and where the abuse occurred, the type of institution or setting involved, and any previous legal or police involvement. You do not need to provide full details at this stage.
