Exceptional Legal Support with a Successful Outcome

5

I had the pleasure of working with Rachel Gallagher and her team on my personal injury case, and I cannot recommend their services highly enough. From the very beginning, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, patience, and dedication.

Although my case took nearly three years to resolve, Rachel and her team remained supportive and communicative throughout, ensuring that I was well-informed at every stage. Their expertise and commitment ultimately led to a successful outcome in court, which was a testament to their hard work and attention to detail.

I truly appreciate the smooth handling of my case and the confidence they instilled in me during what was a challenging time. If you are looking for a solicitor who is both compassionate and highly skilled, I wholeheartedly recommend Rachel Gallagher.

Lack of communication and knowledge.

1

In my experience with Easthams Solicitors Limited, and specifically Rachel, I encountered several issues that left me dissatisfied. Communication was poor, and I often had to chase for updates. When responses did come, they sometimes felt passive-aggressive, which only made the process more frustrating.

One of the biggest concerns was the lack of clarity around fees. Even the solicitor themselves seemed confused at times and had to chase up details about the costs. At one point, I was advised it would take 28 days to clarify, which left me in an uncertain position.

There also appeared to be a level of laziness in handling my case. I frequently had to follow up on matters that I felt should have been proactively addressed. When I sought advice on appealing a decision, there was no follow-up, leaving me feeling unsupported.

Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend Easthams Solicitors Limited. If you value clear communication, transparency, and proactive legal support, I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Used Easthams after being involved in an accident that was not my fault. I was kept informed throughout the legal process in a timely and professional manner. Rachel answered all my questions and helped to deliver a fair level of compensation.
