A very big thank you to Hannah Manewell and Emma Howard for their professional service in dealing with my claim. Good communication from Hannah on dealing with the claim even when going on holiday. I would certainly recommend Nelsons and would not hesitate to use their service again.

Nelson’s took over from my previous solicitor, who I have to say seemed to drag his heels not returning calls and after nearly 3 years still had not resolved my claim. Hannah Manewell took over my case and within weeks of speaking to me had reached a satisfactory end. Hannah has been like a breath of fresh air. Explained things to me properly and guided me through my options to settle my case. Can’t thank Hannah enough.

Mandip was a pleasure to deal with. Extremely professional. Clearly explained the options accessable to us and took the time to ensure we understood each element of the paperwork involved. This was most important as my husband is profoundly deaf and uses BSL to communicate.

This will be our second time of requesting the services of Amanda Voakes. We tracked her down, as she had moved on from her previous law firm and can honestly say, that we made the completely right decision to do so! Amanda always demonstrates immense compassion, whilst dealing with such delicate / personal matters, which accompanied by her extensive knowledge and professionalism, (being second to none) make Amanda the only Solicitor that we would trust implicitly to work with. We would recommend Amanda without any hesitation whatsoever! Thank you so very much Amanda, for managing to achieve the unimaginable, in such record time for us on this occasion.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful and heartfelt review. There is no greater compliment a solicitor can receive than a client tracking them down to instruct them a second time. We are absolutely delighted that you did, and it is fantastic to hear that Amanda achieved such an incredible result for you in record time. Amanda’s rare combination of immense compassion for delicate, personal matters and her "second to none" professionalism is exactly what makes her such a valued member of our team. Knowing that she has earned your implicit trust and highest recommendation means the world to us. I will be sure to pass your beautiful message along to Amanda, who will be deeply touched by your words. Thank you for your continued loyalty, and please know that we are always here for you whenever you need us.

Very Professional, friendly Experience . Mandip addressed all our questions with clarity and demonstrated patience. She acted promptly to our emails and delivered replies quickly and efficiently . She is a very pleasant lady and nothing was too much trouble . Mandip gave us the Confidence to make several changes which we had not considered to be more appropriate for meeting our needs. We thought the Meeting Rooms were very modern, clean and bright and particularly liked the Refreshments offered. Thank you

I have been using Nelsons for financial and investment advice for many years and have always been very pleased with their service. Most recently Nathan Richardson has helped me and my husband through the myriad of options open to us on our retirement and to broaden our thinking and approach as to which funds to use for income and which for investments. We were very happy with the suggestions which were tailored to our risk profile and are already paying dividends (if you pardon the pun)! Would recommend.
