Buying out first home

Russel was great, we were buying out first home and were scared of the solicitors side of things. Russel kept us ahead of the game so the exchange and completion were the easiest bit!

very happy

Amy & her team dealt very professionally with us over the sale of our apartment . Being in a block of flats , with freehold/leashold issues as well as information required relating to the Building Safety Act , it wasn't a simple or straightforward conveyancing but we were kept well informed of progress and it was all concluded very satisfactorily . Thanks to all at Nelsons

Naomi Bond review

It would be a pleasure to write you a feedback.

I know Naomi Bond for the last two years as she is looking after the financial settlement in my divorce proceedings. It is a challenging case and can be emotionally difficult and frustrating on occasions.

Naomi has been very supportive throughout these proceedings, she knows my case very well, she is very knowledgeable and always has my interest first. She gave me valuable advice and consistently up to date with the work needed. Also, Naomi keeps me up to date with the progress of my case, she is very empathetic and caring, she understands the emotional turmoil that her clients are going through.

I would highly recommend Naomi Bond to any future client and to this award as she deserves it.

Legal Advice - Employment Law

I offer this testimonial pertaining to the services performed by Ruby Rai of Nelsons.

I engaged the services of Ruby to act as legal counsel to support me through a Redundancy process with my employer. Ruby was engaged to support the legal review of a 'Settlement/Compromise Agreement'. At all times Ruby supported me every step of the way and acted with utter professionalism. This resulted in seamless execution and finalisation of the Settlement Agreement in a very speedy manner. I can offer nothing but praise for Ruby and recommend her services to anyone who wishes for sound, honest, and truly diligent legal advice relating to Employment Law



Kind regards

Quick, professional conveyancing

Amy dealt with our conveyancing very quickly, and kept in contact through the entire process. We particularly felt reassured that Amy dealt with last minute changes to buyers solicitors and that the sale/conveyancing process was able to go ahead with (almost) no hitch at all. I would use Amy as a conveyancer again should the need ever arise.

I contacted Nelson’s for help with a business lease and Amir called me back the same day. He was absolutely amazing throughout and got the whole thing done in record time. He’s the best solicitor that I’ve ever worked with and I would highly recommend him. Thank you Amir, you’re an absolute star.

With a lot of experience with solicitors historically. I can honestly say that the team at Leicester are outstanding. They give good honest legal advice considering the client at all times.

Jessica Rayns at Nelsons is also an exceptionally good solicitor within the team. Jessica is a very compassionate, understanding and a very knowledgeable caring solicitor, an assett to Nelsons.

I would highly recommend the Leicester Nelsons team if you need good honest legal advice.

I have dealt with Glynis and Nadia at Nelson’s whom were both extremely thorough, knowledgeable, empathetic and efficient.
I have also dealt with Naomi, Lewis and Lesley. The accounts department and the solicitors communication could do with working more efficiently with improved communication. I’ve had to make contact I unnecessarily as a result .
Thank you very much Glynis and Nadia for your exceptional professionalism and support.
Kindest regards , Dixie.
