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.

Excellent and personal service throughout our dealings with Tom Glenister to create our new ‘Wills and Discretionary Trust’. It was particularly reassuring to know that Tom has a personal interest and knowledge of people with learning disabilities. His help and understanding has given us the confidence that our concerns and hopes for our son’s future will be taken care of.

The accounts department and the solicitors communication could do with working more efficiently with improved communication. I’ve had to make contact I unnecessarily as a result .

The first time I came in contact with Mandip was on the 06th July, 2026 via email. Then we had MS Teams appointment a few days after that. Mandip was warm, patient and answered all the questions I had at the time. We met again on the 29.07,26 to finalise everything and it was a real pleasure to have met her in person. Excellent service. Thank you Mandip.

I have been working with Nelsons for around 8 weeks and I have been very happy with the services provided, the communication and transparency through the whole process has made it all stress free, thanks to Dhamini Patel and Aleksandra Ścibor. Aleksandra was amazing and has been very helpful with her being able to explain things to us in Polish. Dhamini made sure the whole process was very speedy and prompt and I appreciate that. The price of the whole service was very adequate and reasonable, many thanks again, definitely would reccomend Nelsons

I had an excellent experience with Nelsons Solicitors, and in particular Holly, who handled my personal injury claim. Holly was professional, approachable and kept me informed throughout the entire process, explaining everything clearly and making what initially felt quite daunting much easier to understand. I really appreciated all of her hard work and support in achieving a successful outcome for my claim. I would highly recommend Holly and Nelsons Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable and professional legal representation. Thank you again!

I would like to thank Elly at Nelsons for the support she has provided throughout my house sale. It has been a long process, but Elly remained consistently professional, calm, and easy to reach.She responded promptly to both calls and emails, and explained any complicated points in clear, straightforward terms. Even during a prolonged Land Registry issue, when I was contacting her daily, she stayed patient and reassuring, which made a difficult situation much easier to manage.Overall, Elly delivered a reliable and supportive service from start to finish, and I genuinely appreciate her help. I would confidently recommend her to anyone needing a conveyancing solicitor.

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.
