Strong support for settlement agreement

I had a slightly contentious settlement agreement that I needed legal support with. It's the first time I've used Larken & Co, and they came word of mouth. I don't think it was a complicated job but Lesley and team were satisfyingly assertive in keeping the pressure on my employer to get the agreement finalised and signed quickly. This included arguing for a biased element to be removed. There was, early in my work with Larken, a slightly delayed response from them on one item but this was never repeated once we had discussed expectations. All other communications from first to last were frequent and timely. I felt Lesley was ready to go to battle for me and would use her and Larken again.

First time ever needing to utilise a solicitor for anything and Lesley was really good with me, especially considering the sensitive nature of my situation. She made me feel at ease straight away and helped me understand all of the legal jargon I wasn't familiar with

5 Star, Brilliant Solicitor

Vanessa Pride undertook all of the solicitors work when I was purchasing my first flat in London. She was brilliant, on time, thorough, and vigilant. Could not recommend her more.
