Our interest in this subject
Edward & Amaury Solicitors is a practising law firm. Its work includes personal injury, mis-selling and civil litigation, some of it funded by conditional fee agreements — the same arrangements these guides explain. That is a real commercial interest and you should take it into account.
What that does not mean: we do not sell leads, run a panel, accept referral fees, or rank other firms. Where we point you toward advice, we link only to the Law Society, the Law Society of Scotland, the Law Society of Northern Ireland and the ABA — regulator and professional-body directories that pay us nothing.
Nothing here is legal advice, and reading it creates no solicitor-client relationship.
Legal review, by jurisdiction
England & Wales
ReviewedUK guides are reviewed by Edward & Amaury Solicitors, Solicitors regulated by the SRA (no. 800525), practising in England & Wales. You can verify the firm on the SRA register.
Known limitation: review is recorded against the firm, not against a named individual solicitor. We will name the reviewing solicitor and their roll number once that is assigned.
United States
Not yet reviewedUS guides have not completed independent legal review. They are written from the primary sources cited at the foot of every page — state legislation, bar rules, the ABA Model Rules and the federal rules — each linked so you can check it yourself. Every US page states this openly.
Why we say so rather than imply otherwise: a claim of attorney review that cannot be traced to a named, bar-admitted individual is not worth anything to you. When a US attorney reviews this content, we will name them and their bar admission here.
How a page gets written
- 1. Sources first. Every rule is taken from the legislation, court rule or regulator publication itself — not from another website. Those sources are listed and linked at the foot of each page.
- 2. Jurisdiction is fixed before drafting. Each page states which jurisdiction it covers and, where relevant, which it does not. We do not describe an England-and-Wales rule as “UK law”.
- 3. Every date is recorded. Each source carries the date we last opened it and, where it matters, the date the rule took effect.
- 4. Review and dating. The page shows when it was last reviewed and when the next review is due. A page never shows a review date unless a review actually happened on that date.
- 5. Corrections are published. Where we get something wrong, the fix is logged publicly on our corrections page, with the date and what changed.
