Vanderpump & Sykes LLP

This was the only law firm out of six I approached that even bothered to contact me regarding a dispute I had with a builder and I needed to get legal advice at very short notice. The subsequent meeting with a partner of the firm evidently showed how good the firm is especially the partner (which is why he is a partner in the first place!). The case was eventually resolved even though I didn't need to hire their services further.

Great service, very professional and personable.
Mark and his team held my hand through every step making the process easier to deal with.
They understood what outcome I needed and discussed all options at every stage.
I really felt like Mark and the team listened to what i wanted and we ended up achieving it.
I would happily recommend Mark and his team to anyone looking for a family solicitor.

Richard Stephens is approachable and provides clear legal advice. I would recommend him for any matters relating to employment law.

Read a clients file properly. Say something and follow it through. Be up front and stick with it.

Mark Heselton was recommended to me by a friend. If your looking for good easy to understand professional advice look no further. I found the help and advice in a complicated situation very helpfully. Five stars given and totally deserved.

If anyone is looking for advice regardles of what, I would definitely contact this firm. I was a first timer going to see a solictor, for advice. This firm put all my fears and nervous at easy. I did try severly other firms I did no't get that sense of feeling I got from this firm, the minute I contact them I knew this nwas the firm for me to deal with my problems. For me it's important that when you looking for advice that your comfortable with whom your discussing this with and Janis wilderspin made this possible for me.

The positive reviews on this site are written by the company staff, the solicitors themselves. They are just a dishonest business and will do anything to keep your money without providing advice or doing work.

I hired Richard Stephens for an employment matter for a brief time. He charged me for work I did myself, changed and ruined my good work and charged me loads for it. Richard was dishonest, didn't know the employment law, didn't tell me very important basic information which I found out myself later and lied when I complained. He is and paying him lots of money doesn't mean he will defend you. In my case he worked against me while he was involved.

They know what they are doing is wrong and most people highly likely complain. He inflated my bill even further so he could pretend to give me a twenty percent discount when I complained. He lacks integrity and is not interested in anything beyond what he can charge you. He has no intention of winning either. I would have got a better service out of him if he had cleaned my flat for the £4000 I paid him in two weeks. At least he wouldn't have got a chance to harm my case.

Keep away from these people. If there is a rare good solicitor in this company I wasn't lucky enough to meet them. They wouldn't last long in this environment anyway.

I sought advice. I got advice. There was no need to take matters any further.
