Where a solicitor protects your position
A solicitor examines whether a business engaged in unfair or misleading practices, gathers and preserves evidence, and coordinates with regulators such as the Competition and Markets Authority or local Trading Standards. They may draft complaints, letters, or pleadings, and advise on possible enforcement routes or remedies, including redress for the client and steps to stop ongoing conduct.
