The professional body registers (start here)

These are the only complete, official sources — check them before engaging anyone:

• Solicitors: https://solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk (family filter) and the SRA register: https://www.sra.org.uk/consumers/register/
• Mediators: Family Mediation Council "find a mediator": https://www.familymediationcouncil.org.uk/find-local-mediator/
• Barristers: The Bar Council "Find a Barrister": https://www.barcouncil.org.uk/about/using-a-barrister.html

Questions to ask before you engage anyone

1. What is your SRA number / FMC accreditation? 2. Do you offer a fixed-fee first appointment? 3. Do you do legal aid work, or private only? 4. Will you support me as a litigant in person for parts of the case (unbundled services)?
