What Our Clients Say

From the beginning you are greeted by a friendly, smiling and welcoming face on reception, quietly efficient and helpful. We started in Probate with Emma Harrison: sympathetic, understanding, clear advice, never hurried, felt like we were discussing matters with a friend. We have already recommended her to colleagues and friends. We also needed conveyancing with neither sale or purchase in the local area. Alexa Holgate provided us with clear, friendly and efficient advice; she chased everyone everywhere to keep us on track.

Mr & Mrs H - October 2019
Everyone we have met has been professional yet friendly- excellent service! Very happy to recommend Pickerings.

K. Duncan- October 2019
Service was amazing, our sale was a long and tough one, but we got there in the end. Peter was there every step, chasing, phoning and E-mailing. Made us feel at ease when signing papers, ensured we understood everything. Any queries- he was either E-mailing straight back or phoning. Amazing service'
K.Carter - September 2019
Pickerings dealt with my case in the most professional manner. Both the lawyers who dealt with my case communicated with me promptly and were happy to provide advice when asked. I would gladly recommend and use Pickerings again in the future.
Chris Rooke - September 2019
The work was carried out in a sympathetic, friendly manner and with the highest degree of professional
Phil Hollins
Pickerings have stayed with us every step of the way through a difficult and, at times, an emotionally draining, settlement agreement process, lasting several weeks. Their calm and timely approach has enabled us to make good progress and finally to bring about an appropriate settlement.
Ken Down
Can I just thank you formally for your sterling efforts on our behalf. Not only did you have to put up with interminable delays, but you pulled the deal back from the brink! May I compliment you both on your total professionalism.
