Top Class Employment Service
James Hughes of Freeths at the Leicester office performed a sterling service in representing me during the process of securing a voluntary severance arrangement at the NHS His sincerity integrity and pride in his job are self-evident and his dedication towards his clients and to his profession is second-to-none Furthermore his attention to detail so vital in the work of a solicitor was very clear throughout the process The process took longer than myself or James expected yet he kept to his word and delivered the final agreement within time and without increasing the fee which would have put a huge strain on me James was patient understanding and a professional throughout and I will most certainly recommend him highly to others who need an employment solicitor who values both his clients and his profession

Freeths Oxford were appointed trustees
Update 13 10 2023 Freeths are the executors of my late father s estate and have treated beneficiaries and workers with disdain and disregard They have not paid my late father s gardeners for 6 months and even removed their coffee and tea float Freeths Oxford were appointed trustees for us when we were minors and all they do is charge huge fees despite doing no work I have finally managed to break open the Trust of which they are trustees and despite receiving the money on our behalf months ago they are dragging their feet repaying it to us My hands are tied until they eventually return our money as they ignore our emails but once we receive our money I shall be making a formal complaint Please nobody ever think of using this chaotic and greedy company

Freeth s Oxford is an absolute disgrace
Freeth s Oxford office is an absolute disgrace My partner is a beneficiary of a trust that they maintain They do not respond to emails in a timely fashion and have been sitting on her funds for months in a low interest account They have charged stupendous fees and her solicitor Richard Biddle is a rude bully and has even made her cry on several occasions Nobody should have to endure what she has been put through by these people

Poor communication at Freeths Oxford Estates Dept
I have read the many positive reviews from different departments within Freeths but I have also noted the poor review of Freeths Oxford by Steven Glynn in regard to a trust 14 1 23 After the sad death of my parents within months of each other I and my family were very lucky to be the beneficiaries of their estate However at every stage Freeths have been incredibly slow and expensive Communication has been very slow and intermittent Promises of quarterly reports haven t been honoured and emails often take more than 7 days to be replied to or even acknowledged We find we have to frequently chase things up and pressure Freeths to get replies and action from them We have complained twice and although the complaints team replies very quickly even they seem to think that a reply from the person dealing with the estate within 7 days is a reasonable time scale It is now 3 to 4 years since my parents died and matters have still not been concluded Although there are many factors behind this many not within Freeths control Freeths inability to communicate promptly to us and others involved in dissolving our parents estates has added to our stress and distress I hope never to need a solicitor for an estate again but if I did I would not choose Freeths Oxford Estate department I would add that I m sad to have to write this review particularly as good and timely communication seems such a simple thing for a professional firm of lawyers to fix should they choose to put a priority on it Postscript 18 9 24 Sadly in spite of including the complaints department in all of our emails Freeths continues to not reply to our emails in a timely way

Highly recommend Gavin at Freeths for Family Matters
I cannot speak highly enough of Gavin Scott at Freeths He came highly recommended by a friend to assist me with a complex child contact situation and I m immensely grateful for his support Gavin s ability to quickly grasp the multifaceted issues I was facing was truly remarkable and so helpful to me in dealing with such an emotional matter Once Gavin had gathered all the necessary information he provided me with incredibly thoughtful and insightful advice which covered not only the legal aspects but also the well-being of my child and considerations for others involved He patiently walked me through all the options and connected me with other professionals who could offer support for my child which was invaluable It s evident that Gavin s expertise and deep understanding of family matters have been honed through years of experience in the field I wouldn t hesitate to seek Gavin s assistance again in the future and I highly recommend him to anyone in need of guidance in family law matters Thank you Gavin for your exceptional support and professionalism
