A trusted partner
Too often legal representatives apply a process to a problem, rather than focus on the specific needs of the client to consider all possible alternatives, I felt Pearce West were on my side, a trusted advisor and I do not hesitate to recommend them for their client centric approach.

Never been so easy to engage with an employment solicitor!
Pearce West were recommended on a website that lists the best solicitors in Reading, so I decided to call them together with a few other solicitors. It was very easy to engage with them, they were very personable and understood immediately what I was trying to achieve, so I decided to go with them... and I picked well! My case was dealt with very efficiently, they were thorough, easy to speak with and the price point was competitive. I would definitively use them again in the future. Highly recommended!
