Reports of BLB Solicitors sadly entering administration will understandably cause concern for their existing clients. If you are affected, or unsure about the status of your matter, it is important to know that you are not without options, and in many cases, your claim can continue with minimal disruption.
At Brian Barr Solicitors, we regularly assist individuals who find themselves unexpectedly needing to transfer their case from another firm.
What does it mean when a law firm goes into administration?
When a law firm enters administration, it is typically because it can no longer meet its financial obligations. An insolvency practitioner is appointed to manage the firm’s affairs, assets, and liabilities.
Even if your previous solicitors can no longer act for you, your underlying legal rights and claim typically remain intact. The main challenge is ensuring that:
- Your file is recovered promptly
- Deadlines are not missed
- Evidence is preserved
- Your claim continues without unnecessary delay
The earlier you seek advice following disruption, the better positioned you are to protect your case.
At Brian Barr Solicitors, we specialise in complex chronic pain claims and serious, catastrophic and brain injuries. We are leading fibromyalgia, CRPS, chronic pain and critical illness lawyers and have extensive experience stepping in where other firms have left cases incomplete or delayed. We understand how stressful it can be to lose contact with your legal representatives unexpectedly, particularly when you are relying on the outcome of your claim.
We can assist by:
- Reviewing your case at its current stage
- Advising on the strength and viability of your claim
- Contacting the administrator or previous firm to obtain your file
- Ensuring critical deadlines are met
- Continuing your claim without unnecessary duplication or delay
Our aim is to provide clarity, stability, and continuity at a time when you may feel uncertain about your next steps.
