Dreadful. It continues. It only took 3 months for the firm to respond to my original review(below) which I wrote only after 6 months of multiple emails being unanswered, even when it went to a Managing Partner! This is how much they care about clients, cases and acting properly. Honestly there are so many decent firms, really don't waste your time as they really do not care when things go wrong. Disappointingly have had to refer the matter to Action Fraud and SRA for investigation.

Original review Awful. Would not touch this firm to do any legal work at all. Abysmal as we are now having to deal with a potential fraudulent situation involving them to which they have not even responded to any of the correspondences sent via our solicitors. Appalling and unprofessional. Photo reflects their service and conveniently located next door for authenticity. Hopeful that our warning helps others to avoid problems

Louise is a very supportive solicitor who provides nurture and a non judgemental service. I experienced a personal bespoke approach that catered for my needs. It can be a very scary experience having to work with courts and solicitors but Louise and the team put me at ease and were always available to give advice and guidance. Differentiation is vital with regards to disability and more often that not there is a lack of understanding that leads to discrimination. Louise and Churchers as an organisation prove their commitment to inclusion by demonstrating their knowledge and applying this within the court arena. I highly recommend Churchers for family law.

Second time using Churches Solicitors. Highly recommended. Prompt, reliable, and professional. If possible, I'd push for the expertise of Max Green.

This is to thank Mr Matthew Bailey from the Fareham branch of Churchers solicitors for taking the time out of your day to contact and advise myself reference sub standard building work carried out at my property. I really do appreciate that there are far worse situations going on around the world in comparison to my problem. Unfortunately my situation has left me feeling intimidated by the builders and not being able to carry out my late mothers wishes l was left very upset and let down. Thankfully Mathew you were able to provide some much needed and brilliant advice, thus lifting my spirit and restoring my faith in human nature.

You selflessly took time out of your day to help myself showing that there are still wonderful people out there in the world willing to help others. Not only are you a credit to your profession but also to your company and as a human being. Thank you Joanne Taylor

Our experience with Churchers in Fareham, specifically Alanna White, has been nothing short of exceptional. We went to Alanna with so many questions around Powers of Attorney, will writing, elderly care, care home funding (the list could go on). Alanna reassured us in absolutely everything we were uncertain about. We'd been worried about so many aspects, but every question was resolved with kindness and respect. Alanna really knows her stuff and builds real trust, often with subjects that feel difficult and emotive to resolve. We are so thrilled to have discovered Alanna and her team and thank them unreservedly for everything they have done for our family.

Louise Jack dealt with my case with the highest professionalism, care and attention, truly going above and beyond to assist me in any way possible. She always did so with compassion and understanding, delivering the best service possible, I could not speak highly enough of her and Churchers. I would always recommend Louise to anyone who needed legal advice. - Suzanne

From the first moment we met with our Churchers solicitor we were put at ease and what had been a very stressful issue for us was dealt with professionally and sympathetically. The matter was complex and throughout we were kept informed about progress until it was resolved satisfactorily in our favour.

My family have been helped by three solicitors at Churchers. They have been efficient and extremely helpful and reliable. Getting an appointment has never been a problem.

Beverley & Toni recently acted to complete a house sale, and flat sale and a house purchase. All 3 transactions were undertaken in a thoroughly professionally manner. They were really clear explaining some restrictive covenants and totally pragmatic when dealing with the old tricky issue which arose. I would definately recommend them.

I recently needed some urgent advice on a legal matter. I was put in touch with Matthew Bailey who, from the first telephone call, put me at ease and provided superb advice and guidance. Apart from his vast legal knowledge Matthew brought empathy, consolation and a real personal kindness to the situation. An excellent experience - and a good solution to the original problem.

Thank you to Matthew Bailey for his valuable help and experience. He was professional and accommodating which was very refreshing. We most certainly will sought after him again if the future requires his work. I highly recommend him.

I am highly disappointed at the solicitor sent to represent me. He was just mumbling in court and had nothing positive to say about me so I get a lesser sentence. He convinced me to change my plea saying I will get a lesser sentence but I still got the maximum sentence. Should have stuck to pleading not guilty and used a duty solicitor in court instead of paying to be represented. will never ever use that firm again. NEVER!

I gave everything inblack and white pre agreed with my husband I was separating from. First I was told 500 but it cost me over 1000. Letters aren't clear and if you phone to question it, your charged. If you tell them they've made an error you're chRged again. I'm not even sure if I legally separated as I've nothing with their signature stampetc

(Update reply below to Ian) In a situation where I was given Rachael Roberts, no mention to me about a prepared statement, which would have been the best option in that postion, she was difficult to get hold of and long to return calls, i felt like she wasn't on my side, very matey with the officer in charge, which was interviewing me. She had little to no time for me.

I seeked help else where and was found not guilty! (Update reply) I had never heard of a prepared statement until I seeked help else where. I was definitely not offered it. As stated before I was not happy because Rachael Roberts had no time to listen to my side of the story! Which was the Truth and consistent if only she had the time to LISTEN! There was NO road rage incident as you describe so you have CLEARLY MISTAKEN ME FOR ANOTHER CLIENT.

That's Shocking on your part too. I was found not guilty due to truth on my side which again she wasn't interested in hearing. I wasnt inconsistent at all. That's a lie on your part too!

I was very impressed with Churchers Services and especially with Leesa Longden-Thurgood she was of great assistance at a very stressful and emotional time. I have reffered Leesa many times for friends and contacts looking for a reliable firm but and a compassionate divorce solicitor/lawyer.

I have been dealing with Andrew Bryan at Churchers Solicitors regarding a recent dispute. He has been professional throughout the process always providing me regular progress reports. His relentless attitude and perseverance towards a rather difficult situation meant we achieved our goals and aspirations set out in our first appointment. I would recommend Andrew and Churchers for all aspects of Law. He is a true gentleman and is a credit to his firm.
