Highly recommend
I have been so impressed and pleased with the service I have received from Mark. He has dealt with my case for best part of a year and he has been brilliant. He has always kept me updated with everything I needed to know and has been readily available by email and phone call if I had any worries or concerns about things. The quality of all the documents he produced for me were of very high standard and he always listened to my thoughts about things and clarified anything I wasn’t sure of. Mark has made what has been a very difficult year slightly more bearable with all the hard work he has put into making things right with my case and I’m very grateful. I would absolutely recommend Mark and his firm

Professional
Having never been in this situation before where I wanted legal advice and representation. I was completely reassured from the very first meeting, that Mark and his team understood and more importantly believed in me. Throughout the process this never altered and I knew that I was in safe hands. Thank you for your professional understanding, knowledge and help.

Approachable and friendly
Mark was very approachable and regardless the fact that he is extremely busy he always found the time to answer my queries. He was always following previously arranged appointments and kept me updated all the time. I would definitely recommend Straw and Pearce!
