We have been dealing with Larken and Co since our business was formed back in 2001 in particular with Lesley Purveur who we have found to be very professional in every way possible. Our latest dealings over a two- and half-year period dealing with a bad debt for the construction of a private tennis court was very challenging, both the defendant and defendant solicitors were totally unscrupulous and no respect for the law. Faced with delays in every aspect of the case Lesley kept the pressure on them at all times, her advice was first class and even when we faced with difficulties was always positive with the outcome. Sometimes totally baffling and frustrated by the unprofessionalism of the defendants solicitors Lesley would come down hard and put them in their place. We are fully appreciative of her service and would recommend her to anyone seeking legal advice in a similar position, Thank you Lesley.

Pleasant and helpful service and case was dealt with very swiftly.

I cannot recommend Lesley Purveur of Larken & Co highly enough. I received excellent service and advice and Lesley was reassuring, caring and professional throughout. I would definitely instruct Lesley again and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to family and friends. I feel extremely lucky to have had Lesley fighting my corner.

I have used Lesley since 2012 and always found her to be professional and very helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending Lesley Purveur if you need solid/practical legal advice. My last instructions with Lesley was handled perfectly by her and I was VERY happy with the outcome of her advice and letter to a confidential individual. In summary we are very lucky to have an excellent solicitor in Newark and would recommend with any hesitation to my friends, family and trusted business contacts.

We hired Lesley Purveur to help us with a very tricky/dishonest tenant living in our property. It was an extremely stressful, draining time which continued for over two years.Throughout the process, Lesley listened to our wishes and worries and was extremely helpful and reassuring. Her communication was excellent and always prompt. She managed to sort all the correct paperwork( which was a huge bundle to the judge at the county court!) in preparation for the court case and dealt with a very difficult ex husband and a very apathetic council housing officer. The tenant was finally evicted by the local court bailiff’s with Lesley’s watchful eye .We are so grateful for Lesley’s hard work
and sheer professionalism and highly recommend her service.

Very professional
Fast response, dealt with easily and explained well

An excellent service provided, representing me during a probate dispute.
Sensible, pragmatic advice given throughout, with realistic expectations. Speed of response was very good, and I was kept informed of costs. The letters written by Lesley Purveur during the process were precise and eloquent, well thought-out; and firmly polite in correcting the ‘other side’ without being inflammatory.
I would thoroughly recommend Larken & Co.

Contacted Lesley P from Larken & Co regarding a sensitive matter. Lesley was both professional and courteous, answering all my concerns in a sensitive manner. Would not hesitate to use this firm of solicitors again.

I instructed Lesley Purveur from Larkens in Newark to take on a case of someone breaching a contract.

Well so much to say & so little space to put it but from the offset she has been like a rabied animal never giving in to the other sides solicitor whatsoever.

I would hate to of been on the receiving end of what she was firing at the other side as each time the other side were caught lying at every turn (which we could provide evidence each time proving their lies) & never once did she let go of the case.

Yes hiring a solicitor like this is not cheap nor is it stress free & ill be honest the whole thing took me to some very dark places but she was utterly brilliant throughout & to be fair i loved that about her & her professionalism was first class, reminded me of the headmistress we were all petrified of lol.

Well done Larkens for getting this over the line and most importantly in our favour & Lesley if you read this then i am forever indebted to you for your kindness to me & flawless service from the start.

Really approachable and gave good advice, kept up to date at every stage and pleasure to deal with, would highly recommend
