Very very disappointing law firm. Time lag on advice was horrendous , emails lacking. Complained eventually and offered a discount but does not account for the wasted time and effort due to litigation advisor working at University . Went to retrieve papers from this company and they thought it funny to keep me waiting outside in the rain !!!?? Still receiving email bills ???????
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and will be looking into the matter carefully. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
There were times when we weren't kept informed and our agent had to contact them regularly to obtain updates. There were also errors in the paperwork which we had to sign some of which were very serious such the wrong consideration. Then there was an error in the completion statement which resulted in an underpayment of the account and even after correction we continued to receive automatic reminders even after settlement. Overall not a good experience.

George, from Nicholls Solicitors, supported my sister and me with a dispute we had with a building company. He listened carefully, had a thorough approach and kept us updated throughout the process.

We would like to thank Louise Sant for her prompt and professional help recently in difficult circumstances. Highly recommended
This review was submitted by a verified client of Nicholls Solicitors Limited.
Having chosen to accept voluntary redundancy, the settlement agreement stated I needed to take legal advice. George was amazing and found a swathe of inaccuracies that I would never have spotted, the main one being that my settlement figure was below what I was entitled to. George made the document make sense and explained all the clauses and how they were there to protect me. My employer was expecting me to just sign the document but George made sure the document was accurate in all areas to protect my rights. Would highly recommend George who was so helpful and who ensured the document worked for me and I understood each section.

I instructed this firm for an urgent family court matter involving my son and paid a grand total of £2,252 in fees. I initially chose them because of a robust strategy discussed with a partner, Sarah Birdsey, who I understood would oversee the direction of the work. Instead, I was passed to their Head of Family Law, Rebecca Ranson, billing at £280 per hour, who in my opinion was completely out of her depth. Instead of deploying my funds to progress my case strategically, it felt as though my money was being drained through non-constructive, administrative correspondence. Shockingly, with a critical family court deadline looming, Rebecca Ranson actually sent me an email explicitly admitting she "did not see how [her] take on the case is going to assist you." Left completely stranded and abandoned by a so-called "Family Law specialist" right before a crucial hearing, I had to protect my case by drafting my own position statement and sourcing an external barrister entirely on my own. I raised a formal, methodically evidenced complaint directly to the partner, Sarah Birdsey, regarding this lack of competent strategy and the billing. To the firm's credit, Sarah Birdsey responded immediately. Rather than going through a prolonged 20-day investigation, she offered a "without prejudice" refund of £1,500 to close the file so I could take my case elsewhere. However, this still left me £752 out of pocket for "preparation" and administrative work that effectively yielded absolutely nothing of value for my case. While I am glad they returned the bulk of my money without a prolonged fight, the immense stress of being deserted by a law firm days before a court date was completely unacceptable. If you have a time-sensitive family law or child matter, I strongly advise looking elsewhere.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations. While our understanding of the circumstances differs from the account outlined in your review, we respect your right to express your views and appreciate you sharing them. We wish you all the very best for the future.

A seemingly difficult procedure made easy and handled professionally, efficiently and with empathy.

Thank you very much for this kind review. We are pleased to hear your power of attorney process was handled efficiently.
I instructed this firm for an urgent family court matter involving my son and paid over £2,200 in fees. After paying, I was passed to their Head of Family Law, Rebecca, who was completely out of her depth. She actually emailed me to admit she "did not know how she could assist me" with my family law case, despite the firm having already drained my funds for what they called "preparation." With a strict family court deadline looming, I was left completely stranded without the strategic legal backing I paid for. I had to draft my own position statement and source an external barrister myself just to protect my case. I raised a formal complaint regarding this shocking lack of competence in their family department. To the firm's credit, a senior partner stepped in immediately and offered a £1,500 refund to close the file so I could take my case elsewhere. While I am glad they refunded the bulk of my money without a prolonged fight, the stress of being abandoned by a "Family Law specialist" right before a crucial court hearing was completely unacceptable. If you have a time-sensitive family law or child matter, look elsewhere.

Kristel from Nicholls looked after my house purchase. Although the house took 7 months to complete (no chain, newish build) due to the slow working pace of the vendor's solicitor and the council, Kristel was always quick to respond to my emails, and always kept me updated about the progress. She also gave me good and pragmatic advice whenever required. I think the overall costs were reasonable as well. I would definitely recommend her!
