Law firms ranked by client reviews

Issuing proceedings covers formally starting a court claim in England and Wales, by filing the claim form and the particulars of claim in the appropriate court. A solicitor drafts and serves the required documents, checks jurisdiction, and ensures the claim complies with the Civil Procedure Rules before the case progresses to case management and defence. The process sets out the basis for liability, the remedy sought, and the timetable for exchange of evidence and subsequent steps.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles form filing and service, checks CPR compliance, and coordinates the initial case timetable, including allocating to a track, organising disclosure, and preparing for early case management discussions. They identify possible counterclaims, track court fees, and liaise with the client, opposing party, and court to establish a procedural path that avoids delays or default judgments.

Bilal Rasool

Tagged solicitor Bilal Rasool

"I cannot speak highly enough of Bilal Rasool. He is, without a doubt, the jewel of the crown at Forbes Solicitors. Bilal recently handled a complex legal matter for us, and his competency was nothing short of brilliant. ​From the start, his professional approach and prompt responses gave us complete confidence. He took the time to explain every legal detail clearly, ensuring we felt supported throughout. What truly sets Bilal apart is his high level of integrity and friendly behavior; he treats his clients with genuine empathy and respect. ​The outcome he achieved—getting all proceedings withdrawn—was excellent. To top it off, his generosity regarding fees after being denied legal aid was a gesture we will never forget. If you are looking for a solicitor who combines world-class legal expertise with a truly human touch, Bilal Rasool is the best in the field. Highly recommended!" ​

Anthony Le

Tagged solicitor Anthony Le

I cannot thank Anthony Le enough! I had a matter where I had a dispute with my previous solicitors (over costs....) and they came up with a Court judgement against me, served me a statutory demand, and was going for bankruptcy petition against me. I contacted Slater Heelis and Anthony Le took on the matter. He thoroughly went through the whole case pointing out things that were not right in the way the said judgment was obtained in the first place, and the way the statutory demand was served, etc. Anthony worked tirelessly day and night in the matter, as I sometimes received emails after the usual work hours. Long story short, we had two hearings. One was only 15 minutes due to the Court not having enough time. The second and final hearing the Judge commended Anthony Le's argument saying it was a very good argument! He also stated that Anthony had given his client (me) a Rolls-Royce Service. The Judge then ordered that the judgment should be set aside, the claim struck out, the bankruptcy petition be dismissed, and Statutory demand set aside. And he ordered the order side to pay 75% of my total cost. What a win!! I cannot thank Anthony Le enough!

Jacqui Callan

Tagged solicitor Jacqui Callan

That devastating moment arrived when my family needed legal representation. We had no idea where to go or who to turn to. We started researching and making a few calls. We are so pleased that this led us to Richard Nelson Solicitors. From the very first telephone conversation with Jacqui Callan the decision was made. Her empathy, Knowledge, calmness and support was evident from the outset. Jacqui, Shannon Keenan (legal assistant) and Mr Phil Gibbs (our Barrister) maintained regular contact with us in the following months, proactively ensuring we were all fully aware of what was happening. Always available despite heavy workloads, always reassuring, always professional. During the court proceedings (the worst 10 days of our lives) Phil, Jacqui & Shannon were ever-present marinating a calm, competent and personable approach. They all took time to explain every element of the proceedings in an honest and methodical manner ensuring that despite our obvious stress we understood everything. Their approach assisted us with the emotions of the situation. Mr Gibbs impressively articulated our case signifying his knowledge of the facts, his cross-examination was firm but fair, demonstrating again his empathy and understanding of the situation for both parties involved. Truth and justice prevailed when the verdict was announced and we were successful. The whole team lived, ate and slept our case with us. I cannot explain in words how grateful we are to them all. We owe them everything. If you are reading this, as I did other reviews because you are lost and do not know where to turn for legal advice, I would without hesitation recommend this firm.

Afsha Ayub

Tagged solicitor Afsha Ayub

We used Levi Solicitors on the recommendation of the estate agents that we had for selling our home. I am so grateful to Levi,especially Afsha Ayub and all of Team Ayub on the selling of our property, and again Lisa Wilson and all of Team Wilson involved in the purchase of our new home. From the out set of the procedure the communication by mail, and email, kept my wife and myself informed , and on the occasions when we needed to talk to someone to fully understand the conveyancing procedures we were treated with respect by both Teams who took time to explain and resolve our questions. The selling was fairly straightforward , our old house was 30 years old on a modern estate development, and we had lived there for 25 years. The purchase was the complete opposite, a barn conversion, a developer who had three conversions on the same plot as his own property. Lisa Wilson’s specialist knowledge on this type of property was incredibly useful, as the seller/developer was unaware of Land Registry problems on the property. At the very last moment in the process as this problem was exposed , the very clear and concise advice from Levi and Lisa in particular, helped me to fully understand my options, and I will be eternally grateful for the support we’re given at this time. Thankfully, the issues were resolved, and we were able to exchange contracts and complete soon after. A small hiccup with one document with Land Registry came to light and I am so glad the completion Team at Levi were dealing with this on our behalf I would recommend Levi to anyone thinking of buying and selling their house. I found that the Teams under the solicitor all work together, keep excellent records of phone calls and emails, and post, and their professional consistent and considerate approach to the client helps greatly in the stressful conditions that exist during the house moving processes.

I'm an estate agent, and I therefore deal with countless solicitors who are invariably below-par. What a breath of fresh air the team at Elite Law are! Sonia Balrai has just pushed through one of the most difficult transactions that I've been involved with for many years; without her tenacity, responsiveness, hard work and determination the chain would have certainly collapsed. If you're looking for a conveyancing solicitor, you should look no further; this team are at the top of their game.
