I have dealt with Julie Brown over a family law matter and Emma Sharp over the sale of two houses and have been very pleased with the service from both of them. I have no hesitation in recommending Straw & Pearce.

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.

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.

Misconduct complaint

Absolutely incredible experience with James. It was an incredibly stressful time and his advice was always reassuring and supportive. He was never to busy to speak when I needed to ask a question and kept in regular contact. Very professional. I would recommend to anyone

Good solicitor

Jaiker was professional and reassured me on occasions during the house conveyance about different issues that cropped up. The company processes are good and I only had to attend in person once so that was helpful

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.
