Tread carefully as I got overcharged - by almost £1500 !

Appalling company that has just admitted to me IN WRITING ('Strictly the matter should not have been progressed' and 'I apologise that the situation developed') they not only didn't carry out proper Anti Money Laundering checks but also sought to overcharge my company by almost £1500 to boot. Were a good firm of solicitors once. Now ? Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. As others have noted, seem to be simply interested in what fees can be charged.

Serious Concerns Regarding Pricing Transparency

A few years ago, I engaged the services of Dominic Wisdom. During our collaboration, there were some challenges regarding the clarity of costs. Initially, I paid £500 as an advance payment, with the understanding, based on Dominic’s assurances, that I would be notified before reaching this amount.

Unexpectedly, I received an additional invoice for £1,787.00. This was without any prior indication that the initial budget of £500, which I had set for the specific consultation, was being exceeded.

Family

From the moment I started speaking with the team about my case, I was impressed with the professionalism and care that was shown. Domestic Abuse cases are always very delicate, especially when that also involves children, so this was always going to be an emotional case. However, the delicacy, understanding and calm support I received at each step of the way was outstanding. I felt supported and in control, yet with the best possible advice and clarity. From the initial emergency orders, to the final outcome of the Child Arrangement Order, I have felt secure in the action I was taking, and completely confident in Emma and her team.

Brethertons Rugby

This review is for a different branch.


Brethertons made an error in my Consent Order which cost me £84k.
I have a history with Brethertons from 2020 when Financial Agreement Consent Order was written. Brethertons then helped me with a D11 to address the Error in court with my ex husband during 2022 and 2023. I addressed the Error in court with a ‘slip rule’ which was not the correct way to to address the Error. At no time did Brethertons tell me the ‘slip rule’ would not be appropriate in this case and it went downhill from there. I expected Brethertons to extend client care and my best interests but Brethertons then told me I had a special arrangement. My best interests were not considered as we had different goals. Brethertons wanted to avoid culpability and have done so.
I made a formal complaint to Brethertons which was addressed in house and they found themselves to be not responsible for any wrongdoing.
Legal advice has told me that my Ex was lucky and got away with the payment and that Brethertons were responsible.

No misinformation was given to Brethertons in the writing of the Order, it was an easy mistake to make but the cost to me was great.

Brethertons have now notified their insurer and asked me to seek legal advice, they also offered me £500 for not letting me know earlier, at the time that I actually needed legal advice as they were not legal advice, which I did not know.

Brethertons have avoided negotiating compensation for the Error because that would be admitting to the Error. To seek legal advice and pursue this Error would cost me thousands and Brethertons have gaslighted me and brushed this under the carpet as they know that the legal system is expensive and I cannot pursue them.

My experience with Brethertons has been devastating, financially and mentally. They have got away with it but this type of deception from a law firm is very telling concerning the way they do business. Brethertons recently wrote that they support my GP concerning my mental health
