The success of free legal drop-in clinics has prompted Fidler & Pepper Lawyers to add more sessions to its January calendar of events at Sutton library.

Earlier this year, Fidler & Pepper began fortnightly sessions at the library, part of the Idlewells Shopping Centre.

On alternate Friday mornings, members of the public can just go in to see experts and receive free advice on matters such as Wills, Power of Attorney, trusts and care fees.

Since launching the initiative, legal expertise has been shared with more than 50 people, for free.

Richard Howard, who heads up Fidler & Pepper’s private client department, said: “While some of the matters are where we can offer simple guidance, we have also helped people to clarify, and sometimes correct, advice that they have received elsewhere.

“The sessions are proving to be very popular, and so, in January, we are adding more to the calendar, with a particular emphasis on probate matters. This is a particular area that can been seen as confusing so it is vital people get the right advice.”

On January 4 and 11, people can speak to specialist probate experts on a free, no appointment discussion.

On January 18 and 25, more general legal advice from Wills, Powers of Attorney, probate and trusts experts will be available.

Both sessions run between 9.30am and 12.30pm, and take place within the library, at Idlewells Precinct.
