Families!

Darren took on a job which turned out to be very difficult with families falling out over money resulting in protracted periods of silences and then litigation. It has been a very stressful time for the Trustees, but at all times Darren was the voice of reason, professionalism and calmness. The matter has now concluded and personally I am so grateful for Darren's help and assistance throughout resulting in a very reasonable outcome for the family he was acting for. Thank you

Wills, Trusts & Probate

Will Completion

After a double bereavement last year, Jayne Parsons and Eva Ng have dealt with my probate on two estates, and on this recent occasion Eva has written up and completed my first Will. Each visit has been friendly, personable and reassuring with excellent professionalism. Eva guided me through the process of drafting the will online and then guided me through in person, working efficiently to turn this around, as I was on a tight time line due to living overseas. She carefully explained the Will and any financial consequences, related to my inheritances and asked me to double check my wishes.

Amanda took over my buying and selling my house after a traumatic time with the death of my husband. She was very professional and explained everything very clearly at all times. Amanda and her team were also very supportive and sympathetic at all times. I would highly recommend Fishers to anyone who needs a solicitor at any time.

Professional & Helpful Legal Advice

Very good communications, both via email and face to face. We felt that Fishers Solicitors fully understood our needs, and provided very sound legal advice, in a professional and helpful manner. Also taking time to explain some of the more legally jargonistic clauses, in easy to comprehend day to day language.

Absolutely shocking service as a beneficiary. Zero contact effort on their part throughout 6 months or so now - for such a simple execution of administering the estate - still waiting to hear back now! Not a single drop of comminication - even if something is pending from a 3rd party - an email takes 2 seconds confirming where things are at - Absolute joke. To kick it all off - when I took time out to go to the office and confirm my ID - they couldn't even photocopy my passport right and I then had to email a photo in. What law firm can't simply photocopy something correctly?! The person who's "handling our case" i'm sure is called Jane (she's never bothered speaking to me - i'm getting second hand information from my family member constantly calling in for updates) is always on holiday so you'll never get clear updates from her or her colleague Eva Ng - always vague. They also completely got family details incorrect and we've spent a lot of time fixing that for them. They charge a lot of money for doing nothing (apart from going on holiday it seems!!) AVOID this firm, they will make a sensitive situation even more stressful!

Fishers appreciate that this is an important and sensitive matter after losing a loved one, but under the terms of our engagement as a SRA regulated firm of Solicitors, our client is the Executor of an estate. This means that we are obliged to provide regular updates directly to them, rather than to individual beneficiaries. An Executor can of course share relevant progress information with you as they see appropriate.

Terrible service received as a beneficiary, communication was poor and when they did finally email back, it was riddled with mistakes and laughable errors from Darren Perry, won't take calls, as others have noted, receptionist always says they are busy. Surprised they have clients ! Extortionate prices ....avoid at all costs. There are better solicitors out there.

Excellent Service

We have used Fishers Solicitors on several occasions and have always found Ian Riley to be extremely professional. He is efficient and always does what he says he is going to do in a timely manner, at a very competitive cost.

Sale of 1 Cannock Street, Leicester LE4 9HR

Throughout the whole transaction, Stephanie Sampson was always pleasant, positive and quick to respond to queries. There was a slight 'hitch' when annual leave was taken but it was quickly obvious that a support back-up system was in situ for such a situation. Thank you Stephanie and all at Fishers.

A big Thank you to Stephanie @ Fishers

We cannot thank Stephanie enough for all her help with our remortgage and the removal of our Section 106 agreement. From start to finish, she dealt with everything so quickly, efficiently and professionally, keeping things moving at a time when it was incredibly important to us. Her communication was excellent and she made what could have been a very stressful process feel so much easier. We are genuinely grateful for everything Stephanie did for us and would have no hesitation in recommending her and Fishers Solicitors. Thank you again, Stephanie, you were absolutely brilliant!

Really grateful to Laura and staff for unravelling what we had started, and taking us through to its conclusion. Everyone was very approachable which goes a very long way, on top of being very capable.

Too slow. Not expeditiously expediting probate. Absolutely shocking service as a beneficiary.

A representative from Fishers Solicitors responded to this review

Fishers appreciates that this is a difficult and sensitive time following the loss of a loved one. However, under the terms of our engagement as an SRA-regulated firm of solicitors, our client is the Executor of the estate. This means that we must provide updates and correspond directly with the Executor, rather than with individual beneficiaries. The Executor may, of course, share information about the progress of the estate administration with beneficiaries as they deem appropriate.

Shocking customer service. Tried to contact them 3 times, 3 different ways, promised a call back but radio silence. They must have so much business they don’t need new customers?

A representative from Fishers Solicitors responded to this review

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we are sorry to hear of your experience and regret any frustration caused. We provide a high standard of service and care remains central to our work, and we strive to ensure a high level of quality consistency in all interactions. We trust you have now found legal representation elsewhere as we note you are not a current client of the firm.
