The desks.
Start where your problem actually sits. Each desk reads, flags, and explains the documents for that area against the law of England & Wales — and points you to a solicitor when it should.
Employment
Contracts, redundancy, dismissal, settlements and discrimination.
Tenancy & housing
Agreements, deposits, repairs, rent rises and eviction.
Freelancers & IR35
IR35, client contracts, late payment, status and IP.
Consumer rights
Faulty goods, refunds, online returns, bad service, subscriptions and scams.
Wills & probate
Making a will, intestacy, probate, power of attorney, inheritance tax and contesting a will.
Family
Divorce, finances, children, cohabiting couples, domestic abuse protection and prenups.
More desks are on the way. The Counsel is an AI tool for England & Wales — it provides legal information, not legal advice, and does not replace a regulated solicitor.
