Report
Absolutely shocking, poor communication with them, every time I rang max Reeves I got ignored. Turned up to my plea hearing, solicitor nowhere to be seen no help from them at all. I'm pretty sure they mess up legal aid applications on purpose so that you pay privately. Absolute disgrace stay clear. I have now paid a lot more money privately for a decent solicitor and can't recommend them enough, very helpful. Reeves and Co terrible firm

Without a doubt easily the best Solicitors I have met. They have always maintained professionalism, and the Team have been very respectful. They are very hard-working Solicitors, who have always given me reassurance, and clear communication throughout my time with them.
Whilst, I do not believe the majority of the reviews on here, they would always strive to go an extra mile for me regardless of fees & have been very patient. Thank you again, Max Reeves, Daisy, and the rest of the Team. Highly Recommended.
