Paralegal legal support in England and Wales
Cannot afford a solicitor? You may still be able to get the papers prepared properly.
Some matters need a solicitor. Many first need documents, evidence, chronology, bundles and practical guidance at a cost that does not run away.
You get a named case-worker, clear papers, organised evidence and practical guidance.
What this page is for
Practical help for people who need legal documents prepared properly.
This page is for clients who need order, structure and usable legal documents rather than an open-ended retainer. We focus on the papers, evidence, chronology and next-step guidance that make the matter easier to understand and present.
We do not pretend every problem needs a solicitor on the court record. Equally, we do not pretend that every task can be done by a paralegal. If the work requires a solicitor, barrister or authorised person, we say so.
Use this service when you need structure quickly.
- You cannot risk an open-ended retainer.
- You can file, serve and attend yourself with guidance.
- You need documents and evidence prepared properly.
- You want a clear scope before paid work starts.

Documents, evidence and guidance built around the issue.

What happens next
We give an initial view on whether the task is suitable for Fenton Marsh, what appears to be missing, and what the next sensible step may be.
Where paid work is appropriate, we agree the task and scope before paid work starts where possible.
For urgent contact, use WhatsApp: +44 7988 226048. Please state the deadline first.
What you remain responsible for
We prepare and guide. You remain responsible for filing documents at court or tribunal, serving the other parties, sending correspondence, complying with orders and attending hearings unless another lawful arrangement is expressly agreed.
What we will say plainly
If the case is weak, risky, missing evidence or likely to need a solicitor, barrister or authorised person, we will say so. The objective is not legal theatre. The objective is useful preparation.
Questions clients ask
Clear answers before you send documents.
Can Fenton Marsh help urgently?
Yes, if the task is suitable for paralegal legal document support. Send the deadline first, then the key papers. We will tell you if a solicitor, barrister or authorised person is required.
Do you file documents for me?
Our working model is that we prepare and guide. You file documents, serve the other parties, send correspondence and attend hearings unless another lawful arrangement is expressly agreed.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. The initial consultation is free. Paid work starts only after the task, scope and fee have been agreed.
Free initial consultation
