About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

Converyencing experience
As a family, we have used Fielding Porters 3x for converyencing (all siblings first homes), I must admit I am yet to find an issue to pick out. The team is faultless, their app is amazing at giving updates throughout the process and their email responses are prompt. Highly recommend
from Fieldings Porter
It is wonderful to hear that your family has returned to us for three property transactions and that each experience has met your expectations. We are pleased that you found the team responsive and our app useful for keeping you updated. Thank you for your continued trust and recommendation.

Lucy was a great communicator - very calm and knowledgeable and not pushy. I appreciated this approach as I was making some big decisions after a bereavement. She was excellent at explaining legal language and processes. It was great to be able to contact her directly via email, without having to go through someone else. Many thanks.

Delighted with the professionalism of Janet Porter, Lauren Armitage & Bonnie Corlett. They made the whole process run smoothly and communication was the key factor. Whenever we had a query we received a reply by return and queries were resolved speedily. We have managed to sell our property and move in a few months which is remarkable. We most definitely would recommend Fieldings Porter and specifically this team.

Fieldings Porter dealt with the purchasing of the freehold for our property and although the process was lengthy with several delays, Kerry Edge the Paralegal who dealt with us has been remarkable. Kerry was pleasant, responsive, professional and kind. I cannot thank her enough for her help and kindness. At this moment, I am dealing with another conveyancer- because they were a bit cheaper- and I wish I had just gone with Fieldings Porter instead. Even with similar delays, the kindness and professional at Fieldings Porter Solicitors demonstrated by Kerry would make me recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much Kerry and all the best with your professional journey.

Five-star service from Fielding’s Porter. I would just like to express my gratitude to Jenna at Fielding’s Porter who dealt with the conveyancing on my property in Chorley. She was very patient and professional throughout, even with some challenging obstacles on the way to getting us over the line. I would not hesitate to recommend Jenna and the conveyancing team at Fielding’s porter, or to use them again in the future. Thanks for a job well done! Mark Barclay

I cannot thank Beth Talbot and the family law team enough for their incredible support, professionalism, and dedication. Going through family court proceedings is one of the hardest things a parent can face, and there were times I felt hopeless about ever seeing my child again. From the moment Beth took on my representation, everything changed. Their guidance has given me my relationship with my son back, and I am forever grateful for the compassion and hard work they put into helping families. Highly recommended.
