Exceptional Service

I have worked with Sarah and later Terri for the past five years through my divorce, financial settlement order, child arrangements order. More recently Terri has supported me with a co-habitation agreement and updating my will, specific issues with my ex-husband including specific issues orders such as secondary school placements and changes to my original child arrangement order. They have both helped me to deal with my legal issues with dignity and respect at very difficult and challenging times when I have felt like doing anything but that.
My circumstances with my ex-husband are on the extreme end of the scale and it has meant that attention to detail and using the correct wording has been key to obtaining the right result for an easier life. I would highly recommend Terri, her attention to detail and anticipating all the possible angles has been exceptional. She is extremely hard working, caring and dedicated to getting the right result for her client.
I can’t thank Terri enough for all she has supported me with lately, issues with my ex-husband are never easy to resolve and I’m sure she must dread seeing my name on her call back list! There have been a lot of times when I have felt like crying, giving up or I wasn’t sure what to do next or how to deal with a situation and I can’t thank Terri enough for being there to support me through those difficult times. For as long as Terri is happy to work with me, I will continue to work with her on any future legal issues.

Terri was very professional and thoughtful. This order I now have in place is already making my life a lot happily with my son. I am so happy Terri was involved with my case and I couldn’t thank her more. There was a lot of times I wasn’t sure what to do and I would either email or ring Terri and we would go through every angle and find a solution every time. I would highly recommend Terri for any case moving forward. She made everything so much easier and I will never forget her efforts to help me have a better future and relationship with my son.

Top Class Settlement Agreement

I had a settlement agreement with my previous employer that required legal advice, and went to Parker Bullen as had used one of their solicitors before.

I had a number of calls with Sarah (Dureau) who gave me clear and concise information, while embellishing on any questions I had, and the case was resolved within a few days. Niki (Coombes) was very efficient at distributing information between us also.

I would highly recommend using Parker Bullen for any legal matters that come your way!

settlement agreement with an employer

I feel very lucky that Sarah crossed my path. She was professional, explaining every step of the process in detail and helping renegotiate the settlement. The whole process was really seamless experience with minimum involvement from my side.
I would certainly recommend Parker Bullen and use the company in the future.

I am delighted with the service I received from Parker Bullen particularly Karen Hall and her team. The telephone is answered promptly and my questions however mundane were answered fully so I was reassured all through the process. I will be back to sort out my Will snd would not hesitate in recommending your company.

Sarah Dureau & Niki Coombes, Parker Bullen Solicitors.

From my initial contact with Sarah I felt instantly at ease. Working along side Sarah and her secretary Niki I couldn’t have chose better. As this was a sensitive case (family matter) it was important to find a team who were compassionate, professional and confident. They were all three and more! Constantly keeping me informed and reassured through difficult moments. Their hard work and consistency enabled to get the results we hoped for in the final hearing. I would highly recommend Sarah and Niki. A great team, with all the right tools to get results! Well done to you both, and thank you sincerely.
Mr & Mrs D Mitchell.
