The best solicitor I had by far!

I had the pleasure and utter luck to be able to be a client of Molly Guest. She is absolute asset to this company. Her professionalism, manorism, communication and knowledge is beyond outstanding. I could not be happier with her support during very difficult and long court proceedings. Throughout my ongoing legal battles I had many solicitors and barrister but Molly is the best out of them all. Thank you Pardoes and especially Molly for your amazing services. I will be forever grateful.

Professional Service with Empathy

Nigel Kinder was professional, straightforward, efficient and kept me well informed. His advice was clear and good and he showed great understanding of my problem. I was very happy with him and would return if I should once more require the services of a solicitor. I would say exactly the same in regard to Debbie Button and her colleagues.

Went over budget with advice that was of no use

Received advice that went off-topic and over-budget. We needed advice on the imminent out-of-court settlement but only received advice on a court case that was not to be. Nigel seemed to be have forgotten, as he seemed surprised when we interrupted to remind him it was settling out-of-court. His only advice was 'you can't do anything' after barely any contemplation. Not useful and not worth £5000

Unprofessional!

Failed in a number of areas, firstly, Missed the opportunity to negotiate and settle claim, further negligently failed to represent me in my defence and counterclaim, failed to instruct Counsel paid money upfront and failed to advise on cost. Whitewashed my complaint. My negligence claim was notified to Pardoes professional indemnity insurers and passed to Bond Pearce LLP. Bond Pearce tried to have my claim struck out, l had gone on holiday and notified the courts and Bond Pearce that l was on Holiday and travelling in Europe, Bond Pearce sent me letters knowing l could not possibly reply, and applied to have the claim struck out on the grounds l had not replied to their letters so l was not bothered and more things l can't print here, the Judge said about Pardoes negligence' Bond Pearce asked for my claim to be resubmitted as alleged it was difficult to follow? ' Bond Pearce barrister admitted.outside the court room l had been kicked in the groin. The whole experience left me traumatised and broken and bankrupt, Pardoes kept my fees and abandoned me, l was a client and expected to be treated fairly and respected.

We used the Yeovil branch of pardoes for an extremely complex litigation matter. Bhavani Hogerty was our solicitor from the firm. She remained extremely considerate, kind and professional throughout our case and she is highly knowledgeable in this area of law. She provided updates upon request and at relevant times, chose an equally skilled Barrister to represent us, understood our financial situation and worked in an efficient manner to ensure we had the best service for what we could afford and showed compassion and support when nerves were getting the better of us in court. Sasha and Ella were also very pleasent to deal with, whom were Bhavanis legal secretaries. I cannot recommend this firm enough, especially Bhavani. I shall most definitely use them in future for all legal issues and recommend to all family and friends. My partner and I cannot thank the team enough for getting us justice and for going above and beyond in securing our home.

Somerton Commercial Unit Transfer

The whole team at Pardoes were really good. It was a long winded process to complete the purchase of an indusrial unit in Somerton, which was not of Pardoes making, but they got us over the line to completion. We are more than happy with their various staff and I even use then for my own personal needs e.g. wills etc.

I Would definitely recommend Mark

Mark Hood is an exceptional solicitor. He has a straightforward, down to earth approach that makes even complex matters easy to understand. Throughout a very difficult time, he provided invaluable guidance, support, and reassurance. Professional, approachable, and genuinely caring, Mark made a challenging situation much easier to navigate. I am incredibly grateful for his help and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice or representation.

Excellent Service

Tanya and Katie have been excellent throughout the process. As a first time buyer they guided me through the process with great communication and knowledge and made the whole experience simple to understand, but also going the extra mile at each stage of the conveyancing. Thank you to all those at Pardoes Solicitors for your help in this purchase. I would highly recommend Pardoes to any first time buyers of those looking to buy or sell their property.

We could not be happier with our experience at Pardoes. Massive thank you to Sasha Loveridge and Yseult Fell who provided us with a faultless service throughout. Their attention to detail, speed of response and professionalism was exceptional which really did make the experience of completing on a house a lot less stressful. Also a massive thank you to Bhavani Hogarty for arranging the process for us. I would highly recommend Pardoes for anyone seeking legal assistance.
