Shared my data with an unknown party

Had an extremely disappointing experience with Copley Clark whilst dealing with litigation. Little progress made, charges quite high and my details sent in an email to an unknown third party. Went to a different firm where the matter was dealt with promptly and efficiently.

ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL SERVICE

Where do I start !!!!! Belinda Harvey and Kamila Cyran have been absolutely AMAZING in helping me deal with the estate of a loved one after their passing. At what is already a particularly traumatic and painful time, without the right support and specialist advice you literally are entering a minefield blind.

I cannot thank either of of them enough for their professionalism, diligence, honesty, support, professional knowledge and caring nature in making sure that the decisions and actions taken were in the best interests of the estate.

If you are thinking of making a will or are in the unfortunate position having lost a a loved one and require professional support and guidance, I cannot recommend this firm and in particular Belinda and Kamila more highly.

THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH I hope Parfitt Cresswell know what an asset you both are to the their team.

Family law - Domestic Abuse

I have been a client of Sharon Micuta for around 16 months now - Sharon came highly recommended by members of the Berkshire social care domestic abuse program because of her understanding of family law. From our first interaction; Sharon was professional, proactive and very knowledgeable - she knew the importance of putting in place protective orders for my daughters and I at a time when I was daunted and overwhelmed. Her advice and genuine care was crucial to me at this enormously difficult time.

Since then, Sharon has worked tirelessly to support me in navigating a very complicated case - providing consistent and reliable counsel that has delivered the best possible outcome for my daughters and I.

At each stage, Sharon was responsive, thorough and reassuring - I could be confident that my case was in great hands with the Parfitt Cresswell team.

We recently used Parfitt Cresswell Solicitors in Sutton - Copley Clark as our solicitors for our property selling. We would highly recommend Gwen to anybody, we found her to be extremely knowledgable, professional and personable. Her guidance and advice have been invaluable during a really stressful time. Our solicitor Gwen was great at keeping us updated regularly whilst also working hard to chase up all the parties involved and extremely helpful at all times. Thanks so much Gwen & the team. We would highly recommend Copley Clark Solicitors Sutton.
