Here’s the full picture behind this week’s explainer, including the protocols solicitors have to follow, and how we translate that into clear steps for clients.
The Short Answer
NJS Law acts for clients nationwide, offering a personable, reliable service tailored to each client’s needs. Pursuing a claim involves set protocols, covering things like how a claim is submitted to the other side, the timeframes they have to respond, and how any court proceedings are conducted if that becomes necessary. We explain these rules, the next steps, and the likely timeframes clearly, so clients know where they stand throughout, alongside our advice and the options available to them at each stage.
What Makes NJS Law Different?
Acting for clients across the country doesn’t mean a one-size-fits-all approach.
“We are a firm of solicitors who act for clients nationwide, but what we do offer is a personable and reliable service that’s tailor-made to all of our individual clients’ needs.”

The Protocols Behind a Claim
Pursuing a claim isn’t a free-form process. There are set rules that have to be followed at various stages.
“In terms of pursuing a claim, there are set protocols that we have to follow. So that may be how the claim is submitted to the opponent, the timeframes for them to respond, the way in which any court proceedings, if that becomes necessary, are conducted.”
Translating the Rules Into Plain Steps
Rather than leaving clients to work out what these protocols mean for them, we explain the requirements, the next steps, and how long things are likely to take.
“What we will do is we will explain to the clients this is what the rules require us to do. These are the next steps, these are the time frames, most importantly as well, so that you know every step of the way where you’re up to with your claim and how long it’s going to take.”
