    Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

    I approached several larger firms to take on my case, but none offered the same level of attention to detail or personal approach that I experienced from the outset with Parfitt Cresswell. Natasha was brilliant to work with throughout the process and achieved a far better outcome than I had expected. She worked quickly, efficiently, and always made me feel supported and informed during what was a tricky time. I would highly recommend Natasha and the team at Parfitt Cresswell to anyone looking for genuinely client-focused solicitors.

    Employment exit legal support

    I recently received excellent legal advice on my settlement agreement from Natasha. She was prompt, professional, and raised important points that significantly strengthened my exit agreement. Natasha was knowledgeable, supportive, and easy to work with throughout the process. I’ve already recommended her to others and would happily do so again.

    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.

    This solicitors had made the situation 100% more stressful than it need to be at the start they tried to cancel an appointment 10 before it was about to start the lack of communication was shocking that's if you can actually getting contact with your solicitor as they don't return calls when they say they will and they are still after money even though i was told that all the money has been paid i would only if you love stress

      Downsizing to a Retirement Flat

      I have used Copley Clark for my will and for downsizing to a leasehold retirement flat. My solicitor Gwen Yangtin Li was very knowledgable about the issues around leasehold flats and retirement complexes. We had difficulty with the freehold solicitors and the Sellers conveyancer. They seemed much less knowledgeable. I consulted Jon Andrew about ownership of the retirement Flat as my wife is in a care home. I would also like to express thanks to Patumi Gholam for her help

      The difference between a good solicitor and average solicitor

      After seeing another solicitor, I won’t mention names things looked a bit bleak for me . I then got recommended to Sharon and within two minutes of speaking wow the difference was clear . I was having a tricky divorce on top of false allegations and my parental rights trying to be stripped so my kids future could be determined by the mother only. Straight away Sharon knew exactly what legal step to take . She was also made aware that my financial situation wasn’t great so helped to find the best solution what was great help and not just an open quote for each steps taken if your unfortunate to be in a similar position to me trust me, you want this lady in your corner ! . My only quip or recommendation would be the secretary was not always the same and when searching emails the persons name is put first then the business name. I have an aol email and this caused slight issues I give an example below this comment maybe parfittcresswell should be first then the name of the person as I missed a few emails. That’s the only Ewa Sierawska <ewa.sierawska@parfittcresswell.com>

      A Professional and Efficient Service.

      Jon oversaw the revision of our Wills that had previously been drawn-up by Copley Clark some 10 years previously. Initially, he arranged for a 'fact-finding' telephone call from which he was able to provide us with a detailed quotation which we both found acceptable. This was followed by a 'one to one' meeting in his his offices which I remember being more detailed than the original one we undertook and which unsurprisingly, also took longer. The draft Wills were completed in approximately 4 weeks and approved. A further meeting was then arranged in Jon's office's where the documents were duly signed and witnessed. Both my wife and I found the whole experience to be professional and efficient. I am pleased to confirm that neither my wife or I would hesitate in recommending Jon and his team.

      We recently completed the sale of a property where Parfitt Creswell (Windsor) acted for our buyers. What should have been a straightforward transaction took nine months to complete. In our experience, much of the delay appeared to be due to poor communication and a lack of responsiveness from Parfitt Cresswell. All parties involved spent considerable time chasing updates, often receiving no response for weeks at a time. I would not normally leave a review for a company I had not personally instructed, but the level of communication throughout this transaction was so poor that I felt it was important to share my experience. Based on our experience, I would not recommend Parfitt Creswell.

      A representative from Parfitt Cresswell Limited responded to this review

      Dear Mandy, Thank you for sharing your perspective. We appreciate that property transactions can be stressful and that different parties involved may have differing views of the process. As solicitors, our professional duty is to act in the best interests of our client and in accordance with their instructions. As you were not our client in this matter, it would not be appropriate for us to comment on the specific circumstances referred to in your review. We can, however, confirm that throughout the transaction we remained committed to providing professional advice and representation in accordance with our client's legal interests and instructions. We acted proactively throughout, progressing all matters within our control promptly and diligently while working towards the best possible outcome for our client. Best wishes, Client Services Team – Parfitt Cresswell Solicitors
