Who We Are.

Iris Law Firm is a firm of specialists. All of our departments are well established over several years, and all of our qualified and accredited lawyers have many years of experience in their field. Whilst having 2 offices within the North East region, our background is as a family run firm and we retain our friendly, approachable attitude, being the voice of our Clients with a very high success rate. We pride ourselves on our experience, and the quality of the advice you receive. We measure ourselves by nothing other than your satisfaction, and our abilities.

We employ only those lawyers who are reputable and have established ability and success. We have been awarded the Specialist Quality Mark, recognising the calibre of our services.

Over the past 3 years, we have been awarded Level 1 – Excellence in a quality audit by the Legal Aid Agency on two separate occasions, one of very few local firms to have achieved this grade.

Client care is of utmost priority. We strive always to ensure you are provided with the best possible advice. Your success is our mission.

We are one of few privileged firms who can offer legal advice and representation from the start of your case, to the very end, including all court representation up to and including the Supreme Court and European Court of Human Rights, as we have a rare team of highly qualified Solicitor-Advocates who have Rights of Audience in all courts.

You will have peace of mind knowing that your case will be dealt with by your own team throughout.

In providing advice to you, we will always ensure you are fully aware of both the actual and the potential costs involved, advising you of the funding options available to you, including Legal Aid if you qualify. You will receive no surprise bills, and no secret charges will be applied. We try to avoid working with ‘bolt-on’ fees to that if you do not qualify for free legal advice, the cost is clear to you from the outset.

We have offices throughout the region, and provide home visits where possible and appropriate contact us

This will not affect how we work on your case. However, if the matter cannot be resolved then you can follow our Complaints Procedure 2020 to have the matter addressed formally. You can in certain circumstances raise any concerns with the Legal Ombudsman or the Solicitors Regulation Authority and our Complaints Procedure explains when and how you can do so.
