How to find a reliable lawyer

Posted on by Guest

If you’ve had an accident, injury or loss that wasn’t your fault, you may be considering hiring a lawyer. Perhaps you want to find out about negligent security claims or you had a slip and fall in the workplace. But if you’ve never had to hire a lawyer before it can feel a little overwhelming, and you might not know where to start. Don’t worry. There are plenty of different ways to find a lawyer to suit you. So, what are they?

Recommendations

Just as you might ask a friend or relative for a recommendation for a day out, you should also ask for recommendations when looking for a lawyer. While you might not know of any immediate friends or family members who have previously used legal representation, there will undoubtedly be a friend of a friend or someone in your social circle who knows something. Personal recommendations can be useful because the person isn’t looking to gain anything, and so they will give an honest review. If they’ve been represented by the lawyer, they will be able to give an honest account of the process and if they weren’t happy with anything. Plus, if they know you personally they’ll have your best interests at heart and will want the best outcome for your case.

A Day Out at Lightopia 2020

A Day Out at Lightopia 2020

Posted on by Jupiter and Dann

We are big fans of light based art. Dann loves walking around, Jupiter loves looking at art, so Lightopia seemed like a great event to attend, especially after the amount of fun we had at Chihuly exhibition and the Ashford Illuminations. Lightopia takes place each year at the Chiswick House in London, as well as several other locations around England. This year, this is running from January 22nd until March 1st, giving everyone plenty of time to stop by!

We went to Lightopia with Claire (who wrote up her own review) and Staurt as a double date. We all purchased tickets a while back, and they were a bit strange to purchase. The tickets themselves have the same opening time, but you’ll end up needing to pick a preferred arrival time, which doesn’t actually get placed on your ticket. We didn’t get the email stating our preferred time, so we went at opening, which was listed on our ticket. We were still let in and nobody pointed out that we were an hour early. Anyway, onto the exhibition.

Before you even make it to ticket check, you’ll walk down a large path of flowers and numbers, making your way closer and closer to the exhibition. Once we got through tickets, we started down the path. Like the Chihuly exhibitions, lights dotted the path moving you from each major point to another. There was a lot to see, but surprisingly, there were also a lot of interactive areas designed for children and adults alike. Everything also had music, with quite a few exhibitions that actually were timed to the music that was playing. The flowers, butterflies, humans, all looked like they were made of wire and tissue paper, but clearly it was made of fabric which had lights under it. A few exhibitions stood out above the others.
