I know it's a bit biased , but we actually launched a special service for website package documents drafted specifically for you and your business by a UK lawyer. It won't be another template downloaded off the web, and you'll get all 5 documents for the price of one.

Here's the breakdown:

Hope that helps!

Yes, you need to be careful who you trust on the web and not to divulge information to dodgy websites. Good job on looking it up!!! 

However, I have very strange feeling that they actually may have purposely slowed down Chrome/Firefox on the Win 10 to give their Edge the... edge ? 

Making other search engines available shouldn't be a huge problem for top-notch programming developers... but that's just my opinion! 

We're part of the insider's programme of Windows 10 and has been testing it through various builds. In a nutshell, it is just Windows 8 with most of the annoying issues fixed.

Here are the hallmarks that I think would make a difference:

• Cortana (something like Siri on iphones or OK Google for Androids) it's nowhere near as intelligent, and it would require enormous effort from Microsoft to actually bring it to that standard.
• The search box is located in the taskbar, just near the windows icon. This is arguably the biggest and most useful change. It searches for apps and files very efficiently (end to the lagging Win 8.1 search box!!!) and even gives you some basic data about weather and news.
• The new menu start is a compromise between Win 8 tiles with apps and metro-style boards and the old good win menu. It does not maximise to full screen - the metro apps share the space of a normal menu.
• IE is dead. Microsoft decided to put an end to this PR disaster. They gave the new win a "Project Spartan" (now "Microsoft Edge") browser, which is light and has some drawing functions for those using tablets and touchscreens. It has a few glitches, especially when it comes to complex sites, but does what is says on the tin, basically.
• The frequent files and places in the favourites bar on the left-hand side can be annoying at the first sight, but it's great once you got used to it. It will show you the frequent folders that you visit (like Work, Pictures, etc.) and automatically make shortcuts for you to access it sooner.
• It will also delete the shortcuts once you stop visiting this place, e.g. when you finish working on a project in that catalogue.

Now for the technical stuff:

• Win 10 is the first windows system where digital driver signature is required. This means that some of your old equipment may no longer work. If you're a tech designer, you'll need to get your drivers signed from now on.
• The idea of Win 10 is to be accessible on all platforms. It's good news for the developers, as you can now develop your app for Windows and make it work on all Win-enabled devices, right from the Windows Store
• Some of the tablet-like features will be enabled on desktops. However, they're mostly useless, and just look nice
• Finally, the whole system structure is basically the same as in Win 8.1, it's simply a better working version of it's dad. It doesn't eat up RAM in ridiculous quantities and work fine even without frequent clean-ups.

Now for the feel of the new system, here's the screenshot with the Start Menu

And here with their "Cortana" search box available straight from the taskbar

The situation you're describing is quite unethical, indeed! I would surely discourage anyone from doing business with a company that can one day disappear. This certainly does not help their credibility, and as a business, you have a reputation to uphold.

Remember that the business is not only the name of a limited company, but also the opinion about the owner. This person may struggle to build a long-lasting relationships with their customers and business partners, which may work today, but could easily turn out to be devastating in the long run.

Especially that what he's doing may be illegal...

You may have realised that we're holding a weekly free Q&A on Twitter, when you can ask your legal questions, and we'll tweet you back with a free answer. We've been doing this for a year now, and collected 15 top most useful questions and answers in an ebook.

We've also added some tips and hints under the questions, and clickable links, if you want to find out more. Let me know about your thoughts!

The ebook is available here: http://www.thelegalstop.co.uk/legalfriday/

I think that most people will fast forward to the bad reviews, unfortunately. I if you have a bad review, and it is simply ridiculous, most people will ignore it anyway. What may be suspicious is lack of bad feedback at all, with loads of super positive entries. 

That's a great thing to know - thank you!

Hi All,

Thank you so much for your replies and suggestions. We have taken onboard your comments and hopefully we’ll be able to come up with a model that is beneficial and fair for all parties :)

Hi mrb, 

No, that would be an addition to our services. The £350 fee is for document drafting, for example you need terms and conditions for your business, as part of the service we gather information about your business and advise you as to which clauses should be included in order for the terms to be legally binding and suggest solutions to ensure that the main terms are compliant with your business needs. The document drafting service is more complex than just providing legal advice as all aspects relating to the subject matter of the document will have to be considered. 

We are considering of adding a feature on to our new website where people can just send legal questions they might have and one of our solicitors will reply free of charge.

Thanks
