And whilst the high street offers a simple and hassle free way of obtaining legal advice, this advice can also come at a premium. This can be avoided simply by venturing online where similar advice can be obtained for a fraction of the price.

?We have found that reputable online legal services typically cost a third of the price compared to the same service offered on the high street and this can make a huge difference to consumers and businesses who have less and less money available to cover these unpreventable but often essential costs? explains Miriam Taylor of Net Lawman, one of the UK's leading online providers of legal documents and legal advice. Whether you need advice on your will, a tenancy agreement, a business lease or any other legal matter, Net Lawman's team of expert legal advisers can help.

Taylor recommends the following tips for tackling the maze of online resources for legal advice and documents;

-Use Pay As You Go pre-paid legal advice in the first instance. You can get this from as little as ?20 for ten minutes of preliminary advice, usually either by email or telephone. You can always decide to pay for further time if you need to.
-If you opt for pre-paid legal advice, choose a supplier who will refund any unused time.
-Find a provider who can respond quickly. Ideally, expect your response within 24 hours to 3 days depending on the complexity of your enquiry.
-Be clear about your situation ? the more information you can provide at the initial stage, the less time will be needed to clarify the position later, and the cheaper it will be.
-When buying documents online, make sure they are written in plain English and are easy to understand. This will help you ensure they are fit for purpose.

?By spending a little time searching for the right provider on the web, people can save literally hundreds of pounds on their legal documents and advice,? adds Taylor.
