Barings Law successfully argued that this created an unfair lending relationship.
Instant Cash Loans

The defendant, Instant Cash Loans – trading as Payday UK and The Money Shop – received a number of complaints relating to its affordability criteria.

Barings Law got money back from the insurance company associated with Carphone Warehouse. It was a quick and swift business to retrieve what was rightfully mine, taking just inside three months of me first contacting them. My case was done and dusted so I have to say it’s one of the best services I’ve had work for me.

Mike Cope
Front of House
Working at reception gives me lots of opportunity to meet various people who come into the office. I enjoy interacting with them as they wait in the reception area for whoever they might be meeting. I offer coffee, tea or water for all our guests and make them feel as comfortable as possible.
I also enjoy interacting with all the staff who walk through the reception area. People who are made to feel welcome at the first port of call so to speak, are more than likely to be in a better frame of mind in their further dealings at Barings Law.
