If we haven’t spoken before, then I would suggest telephoning me for a chat about your case and how I might be able to help. I am fortunate enough to be quite busy and my diary fills up quickly. If you would like to instruct me to represent you in court, I would suggest booking me 2 months in advance of the hearing, as otherwise I will probably already be engaged doing something else.
My diary changes on a daily basis as cases come into and go out of the diary, so you can always ask my clerk to take your case as a second booking and assuming the case first in the diary settles, I will be able to take your case instead. My clerk tries to fit conferences within the gaps between court work and in the afternoons and evenings when court has finished for the day.
