Civil Law

Some Paperweight clients face legal proceedings for a range of actions.

When legal worries feel heavy and complicated, Paperweight is there to walk beside you. We break everything into small, clear steps. We listen without judgment, explain without jargon, help you to understand your options so you can make educated decisions.

Civil law actions cover areas such as :

  • facing difficulties at work, including concerns around employment law or being made redundant.
  • home repossession and Forced Eviction Orders;
  • long standing debts which have reached County Court Judgement (CCJ) and/or bailiff stage;
  • council tax arrears and
  • actions for a wide range of circumstances.

Paperweight can help you understand your rights. We can support you to make sense of the process, understand what questions to ask, and identify practical next steps so you feel informed, prepared and less alone during what can be a stressful time.

We help turn what feels overwhelming into something you can manage and we do it with warmth and patience.
