Outstanding Service

Reluctant as I was to commence a personal injury claim, Russell & Russell Solicitors talked me through the whole process of what to expect, answering all my questions and allowing me time to deliberate. There was no pressure, only professional and honest advice. Given Russell & Russell’s approach, I had no qualms about choosing Russell & Russell to represent me. And I’m glad I did.

Given that the time to claim expired within a matter of months, Jane Penman worked tirelessly and swiftly in collating all required information and documentation, completing everything within the allotted timeframe.

I was kept abreast of all aspects of my claim - via letters, emails and phone calls - and Jane Penman was always on hand to answer any of my questions or assuage my concerns, even listening to me waffle on when I found things difficult to deal with.

A special mention to Fiona White, too. Like Jane Penman, Fiona White was always keeping me informed and happy to answer my questions and explain the whole process whenever required.

Never having dealt with any Solicitors prior to now, I’m left with nothing but a positive impression of Russell & Russell. As ridiculous as it may appear, it was like having my hand held through the whole process, which I greatly appreciated as it was a difficult experience for me.

I cannot thank Jane Penman and Fiona White enough for their patience and professionalism. Other people were involved, too, and they were also a pleasure to deal with.

Thanks to the efforts of Russell & Russell, I received a positive outcome and can now move on with my life.

I have no qualms in recommending Russell & Russell Solicitors and everybody mentioned above.

All I can say is, thank you.

Hit and run Car accident

I was involved in a hit and run car accident and was having to go through my insurance as an at fault claim because I did not have the other drivers details.I went to Russell and Russell saw Daniel DIckinson and had an in depth honest and open conversation with him about what happened and he was willing to fight in my corner for me by going through the M.I.B motor insurers bureau a
company that is responsible for unisured drivers and those scumbags who get away Daniel was a thourgly pleasant guy.I was really surprised that I was sent emails and messages almost weekly keeping me informed of any progress that was made and eventually I was paid out which was a huge relief I can not thank you guys enough

Ethical and Professional

I think Daniel exceeds your expectations with unique qualities, perhaps rare to most solicitors beside being intelligent and respectful; i.e. I always received detailed updates and the right solutions, with no delay; transparent, detailed information & options all the times.
As I am also a legal translator I had the opportunity to approach many legal firms in Criminal Law throughout the UK then internationally; R&R solicitors were excellent so I selected it for my Personal Injury case. But my experience went beyond my expectations with Daniel.

These clowns have lost me a purchase and a sale. They are totally and utterly useless they don’t act on the information given to them and just do whatever is the easiest option they was told from the off that they would need to do a deed of variation they ignored it and instead sent a indemnity policy which was never asked for and wasn’t needed.They eventually got the message that a DOV was needed and sent it off but guess what they didn’t do it correctly so the deed came back incomplete so again waiting on it being amended honestly they shouldn’t be allowed to practice a complete shambles! No matter what your estate agent says don’t use these and if your buying a house and seller is planning on using them walk away!

I have had the pleasure of working with Michele and Adina as my property solicitors/legal reps for various transactions, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Michele and Adina are outstanding in their support, providing expert advice and handling every detail with care and professionalism.

Throughout each transaction, they were always available to answer my questions and explain things clearly, making what could be a stressful process much more manageable. Their thoroughness and attention to detail gave me complete confidence that everything was being taken care of.

What really stood out was their dedication and approachable nature. Michele and Adina went above and beyond to ensure that everything moved smoothly, even when complications arose. Their prompt communication and practical solutions made a real difference in getting things done efficiently.

If you need property solicitors who are knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely care about their clients, Michele and Adina are the ones to trust. They made the entire process straightforward and stress-free, and I’m grateful for their excellent service.
