wanted to say thank you to Roger Lowe

I contacted this law firm after I read all the reviews including the reviews on this site and I was not disappointed by the high standard advice that I was given. Also I saved money following the advice. Lots of bad publicity about lawyers so I felt the need to praise this law firm for the high quality service.

An organisation with no standards

Since being with this firm, I’ve been promised many things, Sadly, none of those things have ever materialised. Meetings and callbacks never happen, They have a complaints policy and procedure that they don’t follow and just ignore totally any communication or complaint you raise.

They fail to keep you updated with your cases and despite requesting paperwork that you are legally entitled to be provided with, as a firm. Prefer to ignore your requests Zero information or knowledge.

I want occasion I had a solicitor he was laughing with an usher who was being horrendously derogatory regarding myself by name in front of a packed court waiting area. On another occasion, ironically the person I was told to email for complaints, Attended court without so much as a piece of paper or document and no awareness of what we were even therefore. I don’t have to spend my time ad advising him because no one else had.

Truly it has to be said just a staggering example of how honesty, integrity, ethics and morals. Certainly with this company are non-existent within the arena that they specialise in.

AMAZING SERVICE AND WONDERFULL ADVICE

I had a very experience and a fantastic service with Platt Solicitors. From the moment I had my first appointment to the last court hearing, everything went smoothly. My barrister kept me up to date with my case and was always accessible. I would recommend Platt Solicitors to anyone looking for legal representation.

Naila made a huge impact on my life!

Unfortunately, I had to use this law firm around 2 years ago due to an unfortunate incident. Having minimal knowledge of the law/courts this was extremely daunting.
I was recommended Naila from another law firm when calling around firms seeking legal support. The firm explained Naila would be perfect to help me due to her strive for justice and substantial experience within this field.
I am so grateful for this recommendation as Naila was perfect for my family and I.
Naila provided me with exceptional advice, support and reassurance throughout the years that the case took to conclude.
Naila’s personality and calming approach genuinely carried me through the court proceedings. Without Naila I do not feel mentally I could have gotten through it.
Naila has essentially changed my life. I will never forget her and everything she has done for me.
