I like working with Lydia. She understands my legal needs very well. She is practical in her approach and is not unnecessarily bureaucratic, which as a businessman is what I seek. Lydia at Parfitt Cresswell is now my go to solicitor for my residential landlord business disputes.

Lydia W was very focused on our initial 30 minute free consultation, covering a lot of ground well. This persuaded me to sign up for service. I had to work under sudden time pressure from the courts, but she rang me back reasonably quickly. I also managed to settle the case out of court in my favour. She was pleasant and professional to deal with. Your Fulham admin office were helpful towards me providing hard-copy proofs of ID as I don't use a privacy-compromised smart phone. You can now close the file on this assignment, but please keep me registered as a client.

I am an engineer so legal documents are, at best confusing to me, and often completely incomprehensible. Lydia explained everything in plain English and was very helpful, excellent service.
