"I really recommend using these. Rachael's knowledge, expertise, speed and professionalism was second to none. Angela Chalmers was also a delight, amazing communication, nothing was too much trouble. We look forward to using these amazing people to act for us again in the not too distant future."
"Communication has been perfect and I have been updated effectively along the way. All my queries were dealt with appropriately. I would have no hesitation to recommend Emily's services to others"

They guided me through a constructive dismissal case with skill and clarity, securing a settlement that felt fair and balanced. What stood out most was their approachability and accessibility—I always felt I could ask questions and be heard. They were empathetic and very human throughout, even at times when I was not at my best. Their professionalism, combined with genuine care, made a very difficult process far more manageable

I had a really positive experience with Leathes Prior Solicitors. From the very beginning, they were professional, efficient and maintained excellent, timely communication. Tia McAleese handled my case with sensitivity and clarity, taking the time to walk me through the process going above and beyond to ensure the matter was resolved quickly.
Thank you for sharing your experience working with Tia, we really appreciate the feedback. Best wishes, LP
I found myself in a hopeless employment predicament, which several law firms weren't prepared to offer help and advice. Leathes Prior took on my case with confidence and took all the preasure off my shoulders. It's unfair to name specific individuals as Leathes Prior worked as a team, from the Company Partner through to the assistants. I thank you all for the efforts and results you achieved. Wayne.
Hello Wayne Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We are pleased the Employment Team could help ease pressure during a difficult time. Best wishes LP
Brilliant service leading to a great result Gareth Stevens was easy to deal with and managed to get me a very large payout
Hello Mark Thank you for your review for Gareth, we are so pleased he was able to support you. Best wishes LP
When I needed expert legal advice and help with an employment issue, Dan and Harriet of Leathes Prior helped me with understanding, kindness and professionalism, dealing with and resolving the matter. I thank them with all sincerity for their excellent work. Stephen Button
Hello Julie and Stephen Thank you for your kind review for Dan and Harriet, we are so pleased they were able to assist you with this matter. Best wishes LP
Found the service provided supporting and helpful from the very first contact. My solicitor, Harriet Howes, was amazing in supporting me with my case and took control of what needed to be done, but kept constant communication going between us so I understood what was happening at all times. Very thankful for the incredible service she provided me. Highly recommended when you need quality legal advice.
Thank you for sharing such a lovely review for Harriet, it is really appreciated. Best wishes, LP
Harriet Howes is amazing. She worked quickly, and was so supportive, kind and compassionate throughout. I would highly recommend!
Dear Mrs Hawkins, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Harriet! It is much appreciated. Best wishes, LP

We were recommended to Leathes Prior as my own solicitors lack of help and communication in dealing with my move was abysmal however edmund ramsdale picked up our case last minute and from the very start he was professional, helpful and kept me updated every step of the way! i would definitely recommend this company!!

This is the second time being a client of Leathes Prior and have had two incredible experiences. Leathes Prior were my solicitors in the purchase of our new home. Madison King is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain legal terms to me. I was able to speak to my solicitor whenever I needed to. Emails were replied to quickly and I was kept up to date with the progress. Thank you so much for everything. You really did make this process easier and smoother for us. Have recommended you to multiple people and will definitely use you again.
Hello Anastasia Thank you for this lovely review. We are so pleased Madison was able to assist you with the purchase, and best of luck with your new home. Best wishes LP

My experience from start to finish was professional and thorough
Hello Matthew Thank you for this kind review for Howard and Lily, we are pleased they were able to support you, and provide professional and thorough service. Best wishes LP

How lucky was I to be recommended Leathes Prior by a friend when I told them I needed legal help to complete probate on my mother's estate. Ejike was assigned to manage the probate application; he was immensely supportive, extremely professional, patient, and kept me me informed during a long process drawn out by the lack of co-operation by the other executor and their solicitor. It was reassuring to have someone as a sounding board making the right decisions and calming my concerns. I thought the costs were more than reasonable for completing the official paperwork and the continued support I received. Ejike was a pleasure to work with and although I live in London, not Norwich, we managed everything by phone, email and post. I now want to pass on that favour from my friend, by recommending Leathes Prior to someone else.
Hello Andrea Thank you for this lovely review. We are pleased Ejike was able to support you during this time. Best wishes LP
Rachael and Angela have been absolutely fantastic throughout what has been a very stressful process for us as first-time buyers. We initially had an offer accepted on a property, but unfortunately the sellers consistently failed to provide the information needed to progress the purchase. After seven months, Rachael was incredibly honest and advised that, it was in our best interests to pull out. Although this was a difficult decision, we really appreciated her honesty and guidance. When we found a new property, Rachael and Angela worked incredibly hard to get everything progressed and completed within just seven weeks. This was especially important to us with the arrival of our baby approaching, and they did everything they could to relieve the pressure and make the process as smooth as possible. We genuinely cannot thank them both enough for their clear communication. Buying our first home has been stressful at times, but having Rachael and Angela guiding us through it made such a difference. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a solicitor.
Truly world-class service from Rachael Hughes' team in conveyancing from start to finish. I was recommended the firm for an auction sale. I said proceed, and within minutes they sent me an app. I filled out the questionnaires and uploaded the proof of ID and other documents that night. Within 2-3 working days, they produced a legal pack (in brief, that is 60% of an entire conveyance that normally takes weeks). Rachael responds to queries by email rapidly, and it is a breath of fresh air having a solicitor who is so responsive. The other team members, Angela Chalmers and Tom Woods, have been great as well—so efficient.I genuinely got passed to a gem of a team. If you are looking to instruct Leathes Prior, they are a great firm. Do ask for Rachael Hughes; if you do, you will not want to use another conveyancing solicitor ever again."
Hello Thank you for this lovely review for Rachael, Angela and Tom. We are so pleased they were all able to create a great experience during the whole conveyancing process. Best wishes LP
Handled the sale of my house very well thankyou
Hello Kerry Thank you for this lovely review. We are pleased we could help with the sale of your house. Best wishes LP
We recently sold two properties and bought a third all with the assistance and expertise of Madison King, who went above and beyond what we expected to bring all three to a successful conclusion. We have happily recommended Leathes Prior to family and friends, who have been equally impressed by the standard of service offered. We have no hesitation in recommending Ms King.
Hello Sally Thank you for this lovely review for Madison. We are so pleased she was able to assist you with all three properties. Thank you for recommending us to family and friends, as always, it is very appreciated. Best wishes LP
