Do you need to be a legally qualified person to send out legal letters (e.g. cease and desist etc) on behalf of yourself or someone else? Can you set up a business called Frednerk Legal Services if you don't have formal legal skills? What is the minimum you need to give any legal advice to people?

I'm in a long-term, gay relationship and looking to put together a will that puts me and my partner’s mind at ease before Civil Partnerships come into affect in the UK.

And, if so, can anyone recommend a good one in the UK, London area?

How does one find a lawyer? I'm skeptical of the online directories I can find with Google, as well as lawyers who are aggressively advertising. There must be a better way than picking one at random from the phone book. A friend looking for legal help with disability stuff has asked for my advice on this matter, and I turn to you, O MeFites.
