Value for money
About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

very disappointing
My mother died, leaving a very simple Will and up to date accounts, making Mervyn Baker Executor. We were quoted 6 months to 1 year for Powis and Co to complete the work necessary. It has however, taken over two years, for Powis and Co., to enact the will and finalise the distribution of funds. Our experience was one of complete frustration, due to the number of mistakes that were made, their short working day, poor communication and a failure to engage with 21st century methods of communication.

Excellent, efficient, friendly and swift service and guidance
On the recommendation of many friends and neighbours in North Essex we used Mervyn Baker at Powis and Co to both buy a property near Colchester and sell a house in London. I cannot praise him enough. He kept me up to date at all stages and was easy to contact and speak with. Even my Estate Agent called to say that he found him very easy, I am very pleased to say the whole experience was straight forward, quick and stress free. I am more than happy to recommend Mervyn and Powis & Co. The next time I need the services of a solicitor I will definitely use them.
