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.

Out of hours legal representation.

Jaiker Chauhan arrived in a timely manner for my unfortunate event, familiarised himself with the case and advised me on my case, my rights, my options and knowledgeably represented me very professionally. I cannot fault his representation nor can I recommend him enough. The whole process and enquiry was completed in a very timely manner.

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.

I would like to thank the Straw&Pearce Solicitors for their excellent work, dedication, and patience through a very difficult time in my life. To name a few individuals, Hayley and Sarah were very professional, offering support, kindness and understanding throughout my case. (NOTE: Sarah does not work for this company) At first, I was unsure whether I needed a solicitor or not as I felt that I had nothing to hide. However, that is not the case as no matter the situation, I was advised it is always best to take a solicitor or legal advice. In particular, Hayley was there for me from the very start of my interview while in custody, offering me legal advice in which steps I should take while also calming me down. Hayley was able to contact me regularly through a secure email system, updating the progress of the case and giving me the reassurance or guidance. Hayley was able to give me that extra push through the hard times to gather as much evidence in my defence which was needed. Sarah was also fantastic as she explained my account to the court in ways which I would never have been able to do myself. I felt that however busy they were, they always lent a sympathetic ear which was very much appreciated. Majority of people will never find themselves battling a court case against them which I thought I wouldn’t have to go through. Overall, it was a well earnt successful result with the hard work from everyone which I cannot thank them enough. I would highly recommend Straw&Pearce Solicitors and taking their legal advice if you ever find yourself in police custody.

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.

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.
