Paula Caldwell

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.

Pernilla Finnila

Tagged solicitor Pernilla Finnila

This is the second time I have had occasion to use Pernilla on family matters. On both occasions her advice has been excellent, and whilst I truly hope I don't have to instruct her in formal proceedings I will have no hesitation in doing so if this matter does end in court again.

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.

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.

Claire Porter at Chester office was absolutely brilliant when acting for me during my divorce. Her professionalism and care was exemplary. I would definitely recommend Claire. I'd also like to say the same of Sara Williams who worked for me dealing with the purchase of my new home. If anyone is looking for the best service please try SAS Daniels.
