Thank you for your review. We appreciate the positive feedback you have given us and look forward to working with you in the future.

I recently instructed Marsden Rawsthorn and to advise me on a complex employment matter. From the outset, the advice was clear, practical and focused on achieving the right outcome. What stood out was the ability to cut through complexity quickly, keep things moving, and provide straightforward guidance without unnecessary jargon or delay. A difficult process was made considerably easier as a result. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and will certainly return if I need legal support in the future.

Really great experience with the conveyancing team. Emails were always responded to within a few hours and the whole process went smoothly. Would recommend and will be using again in the future.

Having had an exceptional experience with Marsden Rawsthorn’s residential conveyancing team, I had high expectations for their commercial conveyancing services. Unfortunately, my experience with the commercial team has been markedly different. While I consider myself realistic and understanding of the complexities involved in managing numerous clients and legal processes, the main issue has been their communication. At several critical moments during the conveyancing process, I encountered significant difficulties in reaching the team. Despite leaving daily voicemails and sending numerous emails, I received no response for extended periods—sometimes for over a week. Even when I attempted to contact the wider team, I was forced to leave voicemails requesting an urgent callback, but still received no response. This lack of communication has caused unnecessary delays and frustration. I will provide a more detailed update on this review as the situation progresses, but I wanted to share my concerns and experience so far. It’s disappointing given the high standard I previously associated with Marsden Rawsthorn.

In my job I deal will a lot of solicitors, some are great and some are bad but my goodness these are up there with the worst. I’m currently trying to help my parents commercial units go through and therefore need commercial leases being completed. I’m a big believer in customer service and I am so surprised at how bad this company has been. My parents have already paid £5000 upfront and wows that’s where they made their first mistake. In the last 2 weeks I have called 10 times with no return call or response. The email replies I receive from Jenny Barnes are just rude and in-fact it’s like she doesn’t even read them. She is now the reason our sale is stalling as she refuses to send a copy of the tenants signed lease to us - for our buyers mortgage offer we need this to carry on the sale. My next port of call is to contact the legal ombudsman and make a complaint.

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the staff at Marsden Rawsthorn and share my thoughts on the service I received from this firm. I used Marsden Rawsthorn for purchasing properties over the past many years. However, last year, I separated from my partner and found myself fighting for my home, which I owned before I met her, my hard money and, believe it or not,- my dog. In my eyes, she was an emotional, mental and financial abuser, and what was the worst, she and I were forced by circumstances to live under one roof for two years after breaking up. I tried to sort it out myself amicably but was getting nowhere as she was interested in continuing with the abuse, not in resolution. And so I contacted Marsden Rawsthorn for help. I was immediately contacted by Karl, a dispute resolution lawyer, who became my brick wall and support until everything was sorted. As meaningful conversation was out of the question between me and my ex, I asked Karl to handle EVERYTHING on my behalf. First, Karl helped me to secure the ownership of my dog, which she wanted to take away despite not being able to provide adequate care for him. Karl advised on every possibility depending on what she decides to cook up next and what is my legal standing. He then constructed a legal agreement with very clever wording which helped me to secure ownership of the dog and stop all possible future attempts to take him away from me. Next, I needed to secure the ownership of my Lytham St. Annes-based home. This was much trickier as she wanted us to sell the house, and I wanted to keep it as it was my family home. As revenge, she was dragging her heels at every step. She was directing her solicitor once or twice a month, resulting in Karl and even her own solicitor needing to chase her. I secured a new remortgage offer, and she did everything she could to make me lose that offer by missing the deadline. What should've taken three months stretched over nearly a year. I was losing my will to live on a couple of occasions due to constant mind games and abuse from her at home. But Karl was always there for me, advising, cheering and always reliable. He was keeping me in the loop all the time and, sometimes, working till the last minute in the evening. The communication was brilliant. He pushed, nagged, prodded and bulldozed his way through. He is cunning and steely towards his opponents but caring, kind and approachable towards his clients. Karl's colleague Paul of the conveyancing department was also fantastic. Karl and Paul made it their mission to complete the transfer of equity and get her out of the house before Christmas to give me and my children a peaceful Christmas. I have no idea how they managed to pull this off, but we completed it five days before the office's closure for the holidays. Paul, just like Karl, is very caring, officiant and very involved and kept me updated. I did not need to chase anyone. Everything was done for me. I just sat back and watched the battle going on. We were a step away from going to court on numerous occasions, but the professionalism, efficiency and diplomacy of these lawyers helped to avoid it and saved me a lot of money. Yes, Marsden Rawsthorn is not a cheap firm. But you get exactly what you pay for because everything is done for you at the best possible quality. A five-star reliable service and kind and involved approach. They really do care. I consider myself lucky to have them on my side and definitely will be recommending and will continue to use them again for anything legal. Every penny I spent on their services now definitely feels like an investment in a better and brighter future. Thank you so much, Karl and Paul.

Fantastic service, Quick understanding and very professional. I was quickly called back and handed over to Paul who took my case very seriously and has spent a lot of time working hard to resolve it. I do not have a bad word to say about this company as I am happy with their contact and efforts from Paul. Would recommend to anyone who needs a legal matter looking into and resolving.
