Top 10 of 911 law firms for Contested Hearings, Litigation

I first met Sally Eastwood's Assistant / Secretary, then I met Sally herself. I noticed lots of good things during the advice I received, but especially the communication skills of both Ladies. Letters were sent, agreements made, and I ended up much better off for their troubles! I would definitely recommend this firm.

Matthew Brandis I’ve used Matthew on numerous occasions over the last 20 years. He’s very professional, down to earth and honest in his approach and has always achieved the best outcome for me.I never hesitate to recommend him to others, as he always makes you feel comfortable and confident in his presence.

We were very happy with the service Penny Stevens-White provided, the only feedback I would add is that where specialism / advice was required from other departments in DG, that it would be helpful to be able to involve them in discussions early on. As an example, our sale needed a transfer of the freehold from our neighbour's to the new buyer, a process which I knew would be delayed due to the their lack of engagement in this matter, so it would have been helpful to address this with litigation's involvement from early onset to understand impact and options. It would have saved a few week's of stress and last minute phone calls to see what we could do to resolve.

Upright Morris Ltd supported me just before my court hearing and gave me great advice when I really needed it. They represented me when I felt like I had no one else in my corner. A genuinely great guy who I would highly recommend.

Our issues were listened to carefully and sympathetically. Feedback was given immediately and followed up by a written summary. Explanations were clear and easy to follow for us as non-legal experts and gave us a clear way forward to solving the problems. We have used Lovedays Solicitors on two occasions and would not hesitate to recommend them and to use them again.

Rachel dealt with my issue very quickly, which relieved so much stress, she was very thorough in going through the legal document in detail to ensure I understood every aspect. I would recommend Rachel to others.”

I’d like to thank Liam Bawden for taking the time to thoroughly explain and reassure me about the best way to defend a claim. Liam was punctual for our meeting, extremely professional and patient in ensuring I fully understood everything. His expertise and clear communication were invaluable. Highly recommended for anyone needing guidance and support. Thanks again Liam.

Working with Kate Matthews at Downs Solicitors has been an exceptional experience. Kate was instrumental in our litigation against some of the UK’s largest corporate entities, including NatWest and Amazon. Throughout these high-pressure disputes, she provided expert guidance while ensuring every milestone remained strictly on schedule. Kate has a rare talent for distilling complex legal jargon into clear, actionable strategy, which was the catalyst for reaching mediation and successful settlements quickly. Her commercial acumen and proactive communication turned a potentially overwhelming process into a manageable, successful outcome. We cannot recommend Kate and the Downs team highly enough.
