Alex has been of great support, his friendly and efficient services has been excellent. I found him to be very approachable and knowledgeable.

Possession of Property

Palmers Law acted on our behalf to regain possession of our property which was rented out. The staff were very professional from first contact. We were assigned to Alex Newbold who guided us through the whole process. Alex was extremely professional and always fast to answer emails and clarify any doubts we had. Based on our experience we would recommend their services.

Efficient, straight forward and reassuring

I have used the services of three different teams at Palmers over the years and I have always found them efficient, reasonable and good at communicating with me. The advice has always been excellent and they have always ensured I fully understand my rights and obligations under any contract or agreement I have entered into. My most recent experience with Kristie mirrors this as well. I am very grateful to have found a firm I can rely upon when I need legal advice on any matter.

Reasonable service

I did get a reasonable deal, improved by the solicitor, in the end, but customer service and reassurance should be provided to the client who is having a challenging time as it is. Updates do need to be more regular too as it is a very stressful time for the client and less judgement without full facts.

Lisa provided me with some legal advice in relation to my employment contracts. Lisa has a wealth of experience and her calm and measured approach throughout guided me in exiting the businesses I worked for and helped me achieve a more favourable outcome. Would recommend her and Palmers for legal services.

Great experience with Palmerslaw

I had an excellent experience with Palmerslaw. The solicitor assigned to my case, Rej, was incredibly helpful and thorough in explaining legal procedures in a clear and step-by-step manner, which empowered me to make informed decisions with confidence. Rej was friendly and approachable, and provided prompt responses to my questions; he handled my case with professionalism and showed a genuine commitment to supporting me. I highly recommend this Palmerslaw and Rej to anyone seeking reliable and personable legal assistance.
