Tagged solicitor Paula Caldwell

I needed a Consent Order done for my divorce and I was fully explained what the process involved. It was easy to understand, and if any further work was required it was a straightforward process and there was no hidden/unexpected costs at the end. I would use again for any other legal matters in the future.

Hannah Stanford

Tagged solicitor Hannah Stanford

From first contact, i received a friendly and professional and also sympathetic service. Everything was explained clearly so i understand the process. Regular updates and communication was received without it being unnecessary and at all times i was given professional and honest advice. Trust with solicitor's is sometime hard, but i was told what i needed to hear, not what i wanted at times. This is incredibly important as you are paying them, so easy to be led along and just get a big bill. It was a real pleasure dealing with them, they made a difficult situation much easier to deal with and i can not thank them enough for all their help and advice.

Having had a poor experience with my previous solicitors, Nicola Starbuck was a breath of fresh air. Very professional but easy to understand with a straight forward approach.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.
