Efficient, Friendly, and a great approach

This was my first time engaging legal advice, and as a neurodivergent person situations such as the one which led me to attaining such advice are challenging, as are unknown experiences. Patrick explained everything clearly from start to finish and was very patient with my queries. Naturally I hope never to need their support again, but I wouldn't hesitate in reaching out should the need arise in the future.

Review of Jayne Harrison, Partner, Employment

Jayne was extremely helpful throughout the process with my ex-Employer. She covered all bases and was extremely supportive. I would highly recommend her to anyone with an employment issue.

Efficient, Thorough, Responsive

Required independent advice with tight time constraints. Shortly after completing the web inquiry form on Nelson LLP site, I was pleased to be contacted by Patrick himself and not a triage officer. He prioritised my case accordingly. Patrick's experience and expertise was evident; consultation was thorough and unhurried. The matter was resolved quickly and efficiently with the desired outcome.

5 star service from Patrick

I’m extremely grateful for the help and support I received throughout my settlement agreement. From the very beginning, Patrick was incredibly sympathetic and understanding of my situation, which made what was already a stressful time much easier to deal with. He took the time to explain all the legal terminology in a way that I could actually understand and never made me feel uncomfortable asking questions. I always felt listened to, supported, and confident that I understood what I was agreeing to. I would highly recommend their services to anyone needing advice and support with a settlement agreement. Professional, compassionate, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. 5 stars without hesitation!

I had an excellent experience with Nelson Richard Solicitors. They provided outstanding support and guidance throughout my GPhC exam appeal. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication were truly impressive. They carefully guided and advised me throughout the entire process and managed to complete my appeal within just five days, ensuring that all the necessary forms were accurately prepared and submitted before the deadline. My appeal was successful and my attempt was nullified.

As a lawyer myself it was interesting for me to see things from the other side. I did not expect to be in a position to need the advice I required but was so relieved to find Steve Roberts - an extremely competent, calm and personable solicitor who put me at my ease within minutes of speaking to him. I am so glad I instructed someone else instead of dealing with the case myself- his written response was extremely succinct and well put. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

This reviewer says...

Victoria Rees was great in her diligence in helping me to provide what was needed for the process when all my instincts kept moving towards much too personal reflections. She bore with me when I would think of something which I thought was important and immediately include it in an email. This made her life more difficult in processing all the information I was giving her. She pushed me to be more remorseful in my reflections when I would hold back because of shame. Thank you Victoria for the time and energy you took in knocking me into shape.

Professional, Compassionate, and Successful – My Minded to Bar Case

I can’t thank my solicitor Mark Howell enough for representing me in my Minded to Bar case. He was professional, compassionate and incredibly thorough. He explained what was expected of me, the processes and every stage clearly, kept me informed, and made a stressful process much easier to handle. Mark did not make me any promises that I would have a positive outcome but he assured me that he would do everything he can to fully represent me well. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I achieved the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is facing similar regulatory matter and needing expert representation.

I would highly recommend Victoria Rees. She represented me for my GOC review hearing and was professional, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive throughout. Victoria gave me clear and practical advice, was extremely thorough in my preparation, and was always approachable and responsive when I needed guidance. Her expertise and attention to detail gave me real confidence going into the hearing. I am extremely grateful for all her hard work and support and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone facing a professional regulatory matter.

Thank you for your review and we are pleased to see you were happy with Victoria's work for you.

Really disappointed with the service. I contacted the firm for help with what should have been a very straightforward matter — simply verifying copies of my driving licence and council tax statement for my bank. Unfortunately, they were unwilling to help, despite this being a basic request that would have taken very little time. I found the whole experience unnecessarily difficult and unhelpful. I appreciate firms are busy, but when someone is asking for a simple document verification service, I would expect a solicitor’s office to at least try to assist or explain clearly why they cannot. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend them for this type of straightforward work.

I am sorry that we were unable to help. Unfortunately verifying identity documents is just not a service that we offer.
