Peter Wright is Exceptional
Peter is thorough and communicative and works to timeframes, ensuring he uses his client's time effectively. Peter can translate complex legalese into simple, actionable and straightforward instruction when speaking with those not as familiar with matters as a lawyer.
He keeps you updated on its progress, ensures there are no surprises and lets you know what to expect, and when so you can help with the matter in a timely manner
He and Ben Marks are the Dream Team.

Prompt and thorough
We used Peter Wright to act as a conveyancing solicitor in a recent house purchase.
We found him approachable, affordable, would return calls, give any necessary advice without being intrusive, and was very thorough in all investigations on the property . He found ways around IT problems in order to complete it in record time.
Would recommend Peters services.

Residential Sales and Purchases
I recently bought a freehold house in London with RIAA Barker Gillette acting as my solicitor. Peter was nothing short of fantastic. He was very thorough, professional, and efficient throughout the whole process. Additionally, the final invoice was well within what he suggested at the beginning. I could not recommend Peter and RIAA Barker Gillette more highly.
