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.

Excellent support and advice

Hayley has been the most wonderful and supportive solicitor I could have asked for during a very stressful process. Not only has Hayley gone above and beyond to ensure my matter was dealt with promptly and correctly, but she has also gone out of her way to provide me with comfort and reassurance when needed. During the period of time which Hayley has represented me, I have been heavily pregnant. Throughout this period Hayley has made sure that my welfare has been continually addressed throughout every step of the process, and ensured all of my needs have been met, including location, times, and meetings adapted to meet any of my needs. The gratitude I have towards Hayley, and the way in which she has represented me throughout this time, I am unable to put into words.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Conveyancing Service – Highly Recommend Neema Somani I have been a client of Straw & Pearce Solicitors since August 2020, and my experience has been very different depending on the department. For the sale and purchase of my property, I cannot recommend Neema Somani highly enough. From start to finish, Neema provided outstanding service. Her communication was excellent—she always did what she said she would do, kept me updated throughout the process, and never left me wondering what was happening. She was professional, efficient, honest, and straightforward, which made what could have been a very stressful experience much easier. If you are looking for a conveyancing solicitor, Neema is worth every penny. I would happily recommend her to my family and friends. However, my experience with the Children Act and Financial Matters department was very different. In my personal opinion, I did not receive the same level of value or service. If your English is good and you are confident preparing your own documents, I believe you may wish to consider whether paying legal fees in those matters is worthwhile. Overall, I would highly recommend Neema Somani for conveyancing. Her professionalism, communication, and dedication were truly excellent. Thank you for all your hard work.

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.

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.

I am not going say my full story because of confidential reasons but the family law side of straw and Pearce have been excellent even though it’s been a complex case I have had emotional and legal support as a male of domestic abuse it’s hard to get justice with the system always favouring mothers, Jennifer Ellis and her legal team Natasha hollier from the team who has listened to me every step and they have been excellent support , I am writing a review to show my respect and tell other people who are suffering there is a light at the end of the tunnel just keep going! After a year long of trials finally its getting there now . Best in the East Midlands for family law yet to mention the barrister who was amazing in court to fight for you. Truth always triumphs! I would recommend for family law to anyone who is going through a battle as a father or mother.They respond quick and and give you the best advice. They can help even most complex cases . Also the criminal side of the firm is excellent which I had to get help from aswell. Keep helping the people and good work guys !!

A client

Pramila Meghani was my Solicitor. She was competent however had zero compassion or people skills. I did not feel supported at all. Correspondence sent to me was still with my former surname after the divorce, with no consideration that I had actively changed my name via deed poll to distance myself from the abusive ex. I was told very bluntly that each email I was sending was at a cost. There was little time taken to explain terminology to me, and I felt like a number rather than a person. The whole process was traumatic and anxiety inducing, for what was already a deeply stressful time.The only positive point I have was the barrister Stuart was great. Friendly, kind, and I was confident with his capabilities representing me. Unfortunately the negative outweighs the positive and I felt like a second class citizen due to having the legal aid accepted. Would not recommend, glad its done with now so I don't have to deal with Pramila again.

Excellent service start to finish

Mark really is an expert in his field. His knowledge and advice coupled with his compassion, friendliness and approachability has been invaluable. Every concern I had, he would arrange a chat to discuss it. He is super professional however also a great sense of humour and could make light of situations which was great.

His dedication and professionalism were exceptional

I cannot recommend James highly enough for the outstanding support and representation he provided during my workplace disciplinary proceedings. From the very beginning, James was professional, approachable and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to fully understand my situation, explained everything clearly and ensured I was well prepared throughout the process. His attention to detail, calm manner and excellent legal advice gave me confidence during what was a very stressful and uncertain time. His dedication and professionalism were exceptional, and I am extremely grateful for his help.

Gross misconduct case

Jamie represented me in my gross misconduct case, and I cannot thank him enough for the support and advice he provided throughout the entire process. He knew my case inside and out and ensured that he was there for me every step of the way. He gave me excellent advice and also supported me throughout the criminal court process, advising me on the barrister and keeping me fully informed at every stage. One of the most important parts of my case was that Jamie ensured the criminal case was dismissed at the pre-trial hearing at Crown Court. He also ensured that my gross misconduct hearing was reduced to a misconduct hearing. Jamie and his firm have provided one of the best services I could have asked for. His knowledge, professionalism, dedication and support throughout the entire process have been priceless. I cannot recommend Jamie and his firm highly enough, and I will always be grateful for everything he has done for me.

Katie and her colleagues have provided a 5 star service in conveyancing 3 properties following the death of a close relative. Katie's perseverance was unswerving in the latter stages of completion and notably far better than the buyer's conveyancing solicitor. Rates were very reasonable and I would have no hesitation in both recommending or using Straw & Pearce again.

Absolutely outstanding work from Straw and Pearce, especially to Katie our solicitor. She was incredible, we were completed within 9 weeks of our offer being accepted. Amazing response times, always there when you needed advice or questions to be answered, pushed our sale through as fast as she possibly could. I cannot speak highly enough of Katie and all the work she does, it’s all thanks to her we’re in our beautiful home. Thank you! Mia & Josh
