Stay away

My partner and I had a horrendous experience with Peter Crix which nearly led him to a nervous breakdown. Everything has taken much longer than it should have done and a sad snd painful time has been made so much worse by his bungling handling and couldn't care less attitude. The man should not be allowed to practice. For your sanity’s sake (not to mention your bank balance), avoid, avoid, avoid.

Professional Service

A friendly and professional service. We needed to obtain the letters of administration for my late father's estate. A daunting idea as he died 37 years ago. Gotelee Solicitors did it - in record time too. A weight off my mind. Thank you.

THE WORST SOLICITORS EVER! FINED BY THE LEGAL OMBUDSMAN

I have never dealt with such awful solicitors as Gotelee. Our legal matter, ,probate, took nearly 3 years to conclude, which should of only taken (roughly) 6 months. The service was so bad we had to ask the Legal Ombudsman to help and, after their investigations, Gotelee were fined. A senior partner, Peter Crix, was slow, rude and totally inadequate, and refused to meet us to discuss our concerns. The costs far exceeded what I had expected with little or no explanation as to why. Please walk away and use some other company.

Legal paperwork was received promptly and completed straight away. Ms Halls was able to explain the few queries we had. The conveyancing process went very smoothly by Gotelee solicitors. Would definitely recommend their services.

Excellent Service

I would highly recommend using this firm for Financial/consent order for divorce. They are highly professional and followed my instruction to the letter. This gave me the peace of mind that they'd only contact me when required.

I have recommend the firm and Demelza Butler to someone who is in a similar situation.
