Superb

I cannot thank Hayley enough for everything she has done for me over the last three years. Not only is she an exceptional solicitor with an outstanding depth of knowledge and expertise, but she has also provided unwavering support throughout what has been one of the most stressful and challenging periods of my life. From the very beginning, Hayley went above and beyond, offering guidance, reassurance, and support whenever it was needed. I genuinely do not believe I would have got through such a lengthy and difficult investigation without her. Despite the complexity of the case and the significant amount of work involved, Hayley achieved the best possible outcome for me. Her dedication, professionalism, and determination were evident every step of the way. If you are looking for a solicitor who truly cares about her clients and is prepared to go the extra mile, I would wholeheartedly recommend Hayley. Words cannot fully express how grateful I am for everything she has done. Thank you again, Hayley your support and hard work have meant more to me than I can say.

Support I Could Rely on from Day One

Mark has been by my side from the very start of an investigation I was going through, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for better support. He took the time to understand not just the case, but me as a person, and his calm, honest guidance made an enormous difference during some incredibly difficult moments. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he always made sure I knew exactly where I stood and what to expect. The outcome of No Further Action was a huge relief, and I know Mark’s hard work, patience, and commitment played a major part in getting there. I’m truly grateful for everything he’s done for me, both professionally and personally. I would recommend him without hesitation to any person who needs someone in their corner. Thanks Mark!

Thank You for Being in My Corner

I am writing this review to express my sincere appreciation and thanks to Mr.James Walbeoff. I have been navigating an extremely challenging period in my professional career as a police officer, facing conduct allegations that have placed immense pressure on both my work and wellbeing. Throughout this process, I cannot recommend James highly enough. James is exceptionally experienced in his field, and I have consistently found him to be honest, reliable, and unwaveringly supportive. He takes clear personal pride in his work, and every piece of advice he has given me has been grounded in sound logic, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to my case. Most recently, James played an instrumental role in my Police Appeals Tribunal. His tenacity, attention to detail, and determination to fight my corner were evident at every stage. I firmly believe that his hard work, dedication, and expertise contributed significantly to the positive outcome. James is a credit to his profession, and I am deeply grateful for everything he has done for me.

Great Solicitor who gives that personal touch!

Mark was great, and got me the win that I needed. Many thanks to him and his firm and barristers involved. Mark was often caught working in his time off to get me the great result that he worked hard for. Many thanks again.

I have been working with Sarah Greaves at Straw & Pearce for just under a year, and throughout that time she has been absolutely exceptional. I’ve worked with several solicitors in the family sector before, but none have compared to Sarah. I honestly don’t know how she does it, but she makes you feel like you are her only client, despite clearly being incredibly busy helping so many families. She is caring, considerate, and has such a calm and reassuring nature. She always goes above and beyond to make sure you fully understand what is happening and what your options are. I’ve been through some very difficult times during my case, and Sarah has supported me throughout it all. She has always believed in me, stood by me, and shown genuine compassion every step of the way. Sarah is not only an outstanding solicitor, but also a truly lovely and genuine person. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

First duty solicitors I've had that I felt were working for me and not against me. With the caveat that the limited funding from legal aid means you won't get the same level of defense as a wealthy individual who can pay their own way I still have to respect the dedication of the solicitors from this firm who go above and beyond what most other firms provide.

Excellent legal counsel

I have been working with Mr Walbeoff who is representing me in a corporate criminal investigation. The process has been very stressful, however Mr Walbeoff’s assessment of legal strategy and advice has been first rate and very reassuring. I would thoroughly recommend him.

Efficient, proactive worth every penny

I cannot recommend Jaiker highly enough. From our first conversation he looked after everything with calm efficiency. He didn't just handle the legalities, he took time to keep me reassured, calm and informed at every twist and turn. Jaiker explained what to me were complex legal details in plain English and was always just a phone call or quick email away when I had a question. His professionalism and attention to detail meant that the sale progressed efficiently across the line. Nearing completion he anticipated potential problems and chased paperwork before it caused too much of a delay. Thank you Jaiker for making this sale a positive experience.

Good lawyer but some elements were rushed and some mistakes were made

Very professional and good quality advice received. Very professional letters written as part of the divorce. My only concern has been that two proposals were sent to the other lawyer incorrectly and some elements were missed on the final form E, which very nearly caused me a problem when it came to court. Also had to chase up matters on occasions and communication could have been better in places. But the quality of the legal advice was good.
