Forbes Solicitors LLP

I used forbes due to brilliant service previously from a solicitor who made me feel very comfortable and most importantly heard, and listened to. I never ever felt judged ironically, and they were brilliant with my family. This time round I had a different solicitor, and the exact treatment was provided once again. Listened to, understood, information on the case was clearly explained, honesty, professional. 10/10 once again. Big thank you to Toby.

The service we have had from Ashley has been superb! He went through everything in great detail putting us in an informed position to make an informed choice! 👍

I contacted Forbes solicitors after my sun recieved a burn to his chest while at nursery, due to my son's SEND needs i didn't remove him from the nursery as he only had a year left before starting school , Lisa talked me through the process of claiming compensation for him which he could then access once he's 18 years old. Throughout this process Lisa has kept me up to date with everything that has been going on and remained professional and understanding throughout, she even managed to claim more than we expected to receive in relation to my son's compensation which was a credit to her hard work and dedication. Thank you Lisa !

The process was made super easy by Forbes, they were able to get everything done for us faster than our required deadline and they required no chasing and were very timely with all our requests.

My case was a medical negligence claim relating to my late mother, which was naturally a very difficult and emotional process for our family. Leonie and her team were excellent throughout. Leonie was always understanding and empathetic, communicated clearly and kept me fully informed at every stage. She took the time to explain the process, make sure I understood the possible outcomes and ensured that I always knew where we stood with the case. As a result of Leonie’s tireless commitment, hard work and professionalism, we were able to reach a fair settlement, and we are extremely happy with the outcome. We are incredibly grateful to Leonie and her team for everything they have done for us. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.

I have been very pleased with the service I have received from Forbes Solicitors, particularly from Lucy and Imogen, who have been assisting me with a property sale dispute. Both have been extremely professional, friendly and approachable throughout. They have taken the time to listen to my concerns, explain matters clearly and keep me informed throughout the process. I have always felt that my situation was being handled with care and professionalism. It has been reassuring to have such supportive and knowledgeable people dealing with what has been a difficult and stressful matter. I really appreciate their help and the way they have handled my case so far. I would happily recommend Forbes Solicitors, and especially Lucy and Imojean, to anyone looking for professional, approachable and supportive legal assistance. Aggie

John Lambe acted for me in resolving a dispute with my late Father's estate. He took the time to understand the circumstances under which my Father signed the Will. At all times he was friendly, supportive and pragmatic. He has a vast knowledge of contentious probate, access to an exceptional Barrister, and together they were able to help me understand the complexities of the laws relating to my case. Navigating through such a difficult time was made much easier by having John in my corner. The right result was achieved and I would whole heartedly recommend Forbes to anyone in the position of having to contest a Will.

Communication and correspondence has been outstandin,so very happy.

Disgrace of a firm, these solicitors where chosen to act on behalf of together housing association in regards to selling my share of my shared ownership property, essentially just the middle man from my buyers solicitors and my solicitor. Whole process took 5 months because response times where nothing short of a disgrace. Case handler Claire wouldn’t speak to me because I wasn’t the client even tho I was having to pay the final bill so surely I am the client? So after 5 months of very poor service they then had the cheek to send me a bill of £2775 and my buyer a bill of around £700!! For doing literally nothing! They were just the middle man!! I paid my other 2 solicitors just over that total amount combined who had to do all the usual conveyancing bits and pieces. I had to ask my solicitor to double check that Claire hadn’t fell onto a calculator and just thought “that’ll do” £2775!!? Wow When challenged on the amount the response was a snapshot of some small print in my shared ownership lease stating a charge of up to 1.5% or some croc and bull, so basically they charged that because they can. So thanks for robbing me blind and thanks again for a terrible service. Stay well clear of Forbes
