This is my second time using Nicholas Smith and the team at George Ide. Nicholas and his team have acted very professionally, guiding me through each step of the sales process. Selling a property can be very stressful with lots of uncertainty but having a solicitor and conveyancing team that informs and reassures you at each step, acting proactively on your behalf, means that you are freed to progress other elements of moving. Thank you. Ruth Lowery.

I contacted George Ide two years after my accident as it was just too much for me and I really felt like I needed help. And I’m so glad I did as I truly found the support I needed having been hit by a car driven by a work colleague while crossing a road. The process took almost two years, but I’m so grateful to Paul and Aneta for helping me to settle the case to my satisfaction. I’m also grateful for the barrister and doctors involved in my case which they arranged. Paul was there from the beginning; he patiently took the time to listen to my story and was very professional and practical. He later brought Aneta into the case and for this I’m so thankful as she was exactly what I needed. My case was complex and traumatic and Aneta, whilst professional, was also very sensitive to my feelings during this hard and often stressful time. Nothing was too much for her and I was kept informed about all steps in the process and my questions were thoroughly answered. They both showed empathy and understanding when things weren’t easy for me. There were times when I thought they know more about me than my friends! The process wasn’t always easy, but having Paul and Aneta accompanying me on this journey made it so much more bearable. They are the people you want to have on your side whilst going through litigation, which at times can be stressful. I want to thank both of them for all they have done for my husband and myself. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a personal injury lawyer. Thank you so much! Katy Parker

Maddie was calm, professional and “on it” – exactly what one needs when handling a house sale and purchase. Thank you. Stephen Allen.

I have always found yourselves to be very friendly, clear about what is happening and very helpful with any questions I may have had. I have used your services before and already have updated my will. I also have Lasting Powers of Attorney with yourselves. My family use you and so do friends I have recommended to you. Anon.

Outstanding and efficient. Best ever conveyancing solicitors I have had. Nick Smith, supported by Lewis Westwood, are a formidable team. Dr Robert Golding

Dear Nick.

Thank you for all your help and advice on the sale.  The transaction went very smoothly, thanks to your expertise and professionalism, and your pragmatic approach resolved potential issues before they became issues.  I have been very pleased with the work that you have undertaken for me, as are my son and daughter, whose property transactions you have recently also dealt with.

Anne Williams

My son can now look forward to his future. You fought hard for him, believed in him and you succeeded in getting him a life changing compensation. It’s been a hard, long and emotional road. You have both been amazing and we really appreciate everything you have done. Paul, you have been there throughout it all. You have been patient, supportive and so kind. Thank you again and keep fighting for injured people; what you do really matters to people’s lives.

Just wanted to put down in an email that you have been amazing, and I cannot recommend you and George Ide LLP highly enough.
What was for me a difficult, emotional and stressful situation was made so much easier with your help.
I felt informed, reassured and guided from start to finish, with super fast communication and advice throughout.
You also achieved a great result for me too!
Thanks so much again,
Louise

Alice provided an exceptional service throughout the year and a half that I used her. She worked tirelessly on my behalf while I went through an extremely painful divorce and child separation issues. As well as her diligence and hard work, she demonstrated a compassion towards me, and a human side that showed that she truly cared about my situation. She has been exemplary in every way throughout the time that I have required her services. I recommend her to anyone, particularly anyone going through a painful legal process that requires an empathetic lawyer who treats you like a friend. She was also very good at explaining complex legal issues succinctly, which was incredibly helpful.

I would just like to thank you for all your hard work in settling my father’s case and in coming to an agreeable settlement with the insurers. Thank you for being so patient with us, and taking time to explain things in layman’s terms. You have led us through this process with ease and my father is very happy to have reached a conclusion in this matter . All your efforts are very much appreciated. Wishing you all the best.

Marisa was brilliant from start to finish. We instructed her on both our sale and purchase and she was always quick to respond to our queries. We always felt that nothing was too much trouble, and she really went the extra mile in order to get our completion through as quickly as possible. If you are buying or selling and want efficiency and professionalism from someone who really knows what they are doing, then look no further

Nicholas Smith was highly professional, focused and responsive. He worked to a very tight timetable to
complete the purchase of our house and I would strongly recommend him to prospective clients

I can enthusiastically recommend Alice Leadbeatter/George Ide. I was extremely grateful for the clarity of her communications and for demystifying many of the processes. Alice was prompt in her replies and very professional – both of which were appreciated in navigating a difficult time.

Right from the beginning of my journey to claim for compensation for my injuries after being knocked off my bike by a car driver, Paul Lewis has been a tower of strength. His advice, guidance and care in ensuring my claim proceeded smoothly has been First Class. Always promptly keeping me informed of progress by email. A friendly, compassionate listening ear when needed to my worries and concerns. Helping and guiding me every step of the way. I have received the best possible advice throughout, resulting in an excellent outcome, expertly and tenaciously negotiated for me by Paul. Thank You.

Alice has always replied promptly to emails/telephone calls. She was extremely helpful and made the whole process go smoothly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone thinking of a divorce.

Thank you for your continued support and due diligence. I accept it is business for you but the challenging way this sale has progressed from beginning to now has been made somewhat more comfortable due to your help and advice.

Thank you seems such a trivial word and yet without your tenacity, we would not be here today. For all the medical providers you sought out and your words of stability at each and every stage I cannot thank you enough. You will never know how much of a difference you have made, without your constant reassurance and steps of transition to medical assistance especially during Covid I know I would not be at this stage on my journey.

Maddie was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process.

pleasure to work with. Anon.
