Perfection with a CAPITAL P
From the first meeting I was impressed by the whole machinery of using this Firm to make out my ‘Will’.
Attention to detail was exemplary. Expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Capability Review
I had been working for my employer for almost 12 years and was put forward for a capability assessment when I felt as though the management were pushing me out. I was made ill, miscarried and unable to go forward with the process. I then took the steps of reaching out to HR asking 'without prejudice' what my other options would be and Lydia helped summarise my options and helped me with negotiating a redundancy package for me to leave without further stress. She was able to clearly explain what steps could be taken in my situation and communicated with the employer on my behalf. She gave me reassurance, was friendly and kind and very knowledgeable at a very distressing time in my life.

House Sale in Reading
This review is for a different branch.
An excellent "house sale" experience which we appreciated. The process was handled without unnecessary delay and showed professionalism throughout.
The sale process started in December and was ready for Completion before the end of February. Time was lost, but only due to the buyer failing to instruct his solicitor (independently advised of this).There was also an issue over a small piece of land theoretically blocking access to a stand-alone garden. This needed investigation and agreement over and above the standard sale process.
I would definitely use this practice again if a requirement arose.

Our solicitor Andrew Whittingham was quick to understood the nature and dynamics of our position. He was also very good at working with me to establish the best course of action and was open to suggestions but clear with advice when we needed clarity.

We found Andrew Witthingham very empathetic and personable to our issue. He gave us good advice and we found him to be a good listener. Thankfully we had a successful outcome to our tenant issue without further legal intervention required..

I had an excellent customer experience with Lydia Wawiye of Parfitt Cresswell regarding my Settlement Agreement for redundancy. Lydia provided clear, concise legal advice, ensuring I understood all aspects of the Agreement. Her professionalism, combined with her friendly and approachable demeanor, made a potentially stressful process much more manageable. Lydia's attention to detail and her prompt responses to my queries demonstrated a high level of commitment and expertise.
I would highly recommend Parfitt Cresswell for their exceptional service and dedication to client satisfaction..
