I had an excellent experience with Nelson Richard Solicitors. They provided outstanding support and guidance throughout my GPhC exam appeal. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication were truly impressive. They carefully guided and advised me throughout the entire process and managed to complete my appeal within just five days, ensuring that all the necessary forms were accurately prepared and submitted before the deadline. My appeal was successful and my attempt was nullified.

Good morning, this feedback is for Louise (Louise O’Driscoll/ F0348-1-6/ 11615). Louise has offered her guidance and advice for the school appeal of my daughter. We were successful and delighted with the outcome. However independently from the outcome, I can honestly say that Louise is knowledgeable about the school appeal process. Louise has patiently guided me through the process, and how to: (1) best present the personal circumstances of our case; (2) challenge the evidence provided by the school for not admitting my daughter. As a working mum and fully committed solicitor, she is swamped, but she always promptly returned my calls and e-mails. I am very fortunate to have met and been offered her services. If you are determined to have the best chance in appealing for a school place, yet you are unsure how to navigate the complexities of the appeal process, I strongly encourage you to call Louise and seek her help and guidance. Louise is knowledgeable and honest, and will not let you down.

I recently instructed Louise O'Driscoll to prepare our appeal against the decision of the local authority not to offer our son a place at our preferred school. At the outset, Louise listened empathetically to our concerns and provided reassurance with her knowledge and understanding of the appeal process. The representations prepared by Louise were excellent and our son was finally offered a place at our preferred school. An excellent service from start to finish.

5 star service from Patrick

I’m extremely grateful for the help and support I received throughout my settlement agreement. From the very beginning, Patrick was incredibly sympathetic and understanding of my situation, which made what was already a stressful time much easier to deal with. He took the time to explain all the legal terminology in a way that I could actually understand and never made me feel uncomfortable asking questions. I always felt listened to, supported, and confident that I understood what I was agreeing to. I would highly recommend their services to anyone needing advice and support with a settlement agreement. Professional, compassionate, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. 5 stars without hesitation!

Not a fluke

One can appreciate that you don’t ever find yourself in need of help or assistance from solicitors. However in this case, part of me was relieved that I could rely on Richard Nelson LLP. They are fast and professional in their responses, always have time to listen to any concerns, no matter large or small, and clearly have extensive experience which provided me with assurance that the best outcome was possible. Thank you, with all sincerity, thank you.

Professional. friendly and knowledgeable solicitors who listen, understand, and show empathy.

Professional. friendly and knowledgeable solicitors who listen, understand, and show empathy. The Richard Nelson team were wonderful at every touch point. They were more than a solicitor and there in my hour of need. When other firms told me I had no rights and they couldn't do anything, this wonderful team listened, understood, were empathetic and provided a professional service. The support from the team also in turn helped my mental health in what was a stressful and traumatic experience dealing with the police and courts.

I cannot recommend Marjorie Creek and Richard Nelson LLP highly enough. Marjorie supported me through an incredibly difficult and prolonged period, and I will always be deeply grateful that I had her in my corner. Her knowledge, experience and professional judgement were invaluable, but what made such a difference was the genuine compassion, kindness and reassurance she showed throughout. During a situation that was often extremely challenging, knowing that I could turn to Marjorie for clear advice, support and guidance gave me enormous reassurance. She was always approachable, responsive and there when I needed her, acting promptly and professionally while never losing the human touch. I always felt that she genuinely cared about my situation and was committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. It is difficult to put into words just how much her support meant during that time. Marjorie is an exceptional professional and a genuinely compassionate person, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone needing knowledgeable, trustworthy and supportive legal representation.

As a lawyer myself it was interesting for me to see things from the other side. I did not expect to be in a position to need the advice I required but was so relieved to find Steve Roberts - an extremely competent, calm and personable solicitor who put me at my ease within minutes of speaking to him. I am so glad I instructed someone else instead of dealing with the case myself- his written response was extremely succinct and well put. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
