We often get asked to do a quick job for clients - a short query or a five minute phone call to clarify something, and we're always really pleased to hear from you and help with any worries you may have. We know some clients aren't sure if it's OK to give us a ring, or worry that there's going to be a fee attached so hold off asking until, perhaps, the issue becomes bigger or more serious.
