Dormant レビュー 370

In 2021, I was approached to write the copy for their new website. After producing the work and delivering it, the owner refused to pay and stopped answering all calls and emails. The copy supplied was then used without my permission.

It then transpired that he had a history of this kind of behaviour. This was not immediately evident as I was in touch with an intermediary.

Very disappointing.

In total we had seven different in experienced solicitors change over as they have such high staff turnover. I don’t want to mention any names but the barrister and the solicitor who turned up at court couldn’t believe we were still using the firm for our child arrangement order. In the end it came to light that the company didn’t give a damn and they just make quick money. I lost my daughter because of such inexperienced solicitors. They also attempted to take an additional £3000 out of my account. Luckily it bounced and I changed my card details. They also use to send me bill on the morning of the court cases, which I think is horrendous, so you panic. I lost my child and I wish for no one else to go through what this solicitors put me through. I am £15,000 down and worse off.

5 stars for Courtnay Chamberlains expertise. She is kind and understanding but also highly professional. She meticulously organised absolutely everything for me which was a great weight lifted of my shoulders during a stressful time. Perduco Law were a great choice due to their fixed fees so no out of control charges.
Thank you again Courtnay!

I searched months for someone to help me with the financial side of my divorce and found Michael Mottram. Very respectful, reassuring. Gave affordable options for cost, and achieved a great outcome for me! I would highly recommend Michael & Perduco law.
Thank you

Please see below - now partially rectified and had the help from Perduco regarding premium credit ( premium credit are the ones I have now got to get the money back from)
Perduco have acted accordingly

AWFUL from start to ‘finish’

Asked n for my case to be cancelled all acknowledged by Perducoibky to have £416z65 taken from my account to Perduco by premium credit
Perduco acknowledged any mistake and still premium Credit and won’t take accountability
So so so poor as a single mother this is theft and I will be taking legal action

Honestly amazing service and 10/10 experience everything is amazing

When you’re going through a divorce to have a law firm that you know what it costs from the start is so comforting

Service was great and didn’t feel like a low cost service, very attentive and very professional

Would highly recommend

These guys are a 5 star service

Didn’t believe they could deliver this cost effective and it be a proper legal service - I was wrong!!!!

Explained from the beginning what it would cost and what I could expect to happen

On the Money with everything and now I’ve got my kids back in my life

Thanks Perduco Team

Celeste was amazing

Was getting divorced from my narcissistic husband who was bullying me financially and Celeste took control from day 1 and put them on the back foot.

She managed to get him to pay my legal fees and we got a result without even going to court

Would definitely recommend this company

Had a very difficult experience with an ex partner who had been abusive and had taken my kids and was refusing to return them

Michael Mottram was superb, he kept me informed and dealt with everything super professionally and got me the kids back in my care.

Fixed cost was so reassuring

if you are in the UK look up companies house business number 11908545 then Company Number OC449554 you will see the company has had a lot of name changes, changes in directors, ask to meet them and go to their office in London!! the address looks like apartment block they took payment said they had done things but had no evidence despite various requests, most the positive reviews on here ether are from new users or outside the uk. I started using them in November last year spoke with one person who sounded really good, then got passed over to quickly take first payment, then they did a few poorly written emails, copying in ex wife to things they shouldn't have, they said everything was done but couldn't prove it and kept chasing for me to make the final payment,

I first contacted Perduco on the 24th January and after a very productive initial phone call I signed paperwork to start my financial settlement and divorce with them. Since then I have been told numerous times, when I can actually speak to someone that knows what on earth is going on - ‘Please note that we are in the process of finalising the audit of all files, yours being one thereof that needs to be addressed. We cannot get back to you until we have received feedback from our accounting team and director regarding same.
Please be patient whilst we obtain our instructions and will revert as soon as we have the necessary feedback to discuss with you’

It is completely unreasonable that they have left me with no further information for nearly 4 months. This has delayed my divorce and the whole process and has left me stressed and unwell.

Absolutely disgusting customer service and ridiculous of them pride themselves on doing this to people during the worst times of their lives!

In response the the laughable reply, I signed an Acknowledgment of Debt with the company and was advised I would need to pay once the settlement was received from my ex-husband, which would be 50% of the equity from our martial home minus what is owed on the mortgage - so around £70,000 - does that not count as asset?! The solicitor who I spoke to and took on the case seemed to think so hence the AOD being issued and signed.
As for them sending me emails - nothing (as usual!)
From reading other reviews it was a lucky escape for me! The Legal Ombudsman and the SRA have been contacted and are keen to take this further on my behalf.

Perduco Law have been withholding my £65,000 settlement from my ex-partner for 5 weeks, with no timeframe for when my funds will be released. I was initially told I would receive the funds by 1st April 2025, following a stated 7–10 working day period for anti-money laundering (AML) checks. That date has passed, and I still have not received my money.

The property deeds were transferred to my ex five weeks ago, so I no longer have ownership of the house or access to my share of the equity

On 1st April, I posted a review reflecting my experience. The following day, I had a phone call with the firm’s Managing Director, and my solicitor. In my view, the tone of the conversation was both aggressive and unprofessional. I was told that the forms required to release my £65,000 would not be provided unless I removed my review. Peter also said if I didn't remove the review Perduco Law would stop representing me and send my £65,000 back to my ex-partner's conveyancer (even though the deeds had been transferred into his name). I felt extremely pressured and intimidated into deleting my review.

Both representatives assured me that if I removed the review, the funds would be sent by Friday 4th April. I removed the review, but the funds were still not released.

Communication has been extremely poor since I engaged this firm. Phone calls frequently go unanswered and cut off after a minute, rather than placing you in a queue as most professional firms do in my experience. This has required me to make repeated calls in an attempt to get an update on my life savings, which I still do not have.

As a result of this ongoing uncertainty, the firm’s continued failure to release my funds, and the pressure placed on me to remove my review in order to access them, I have been forced to take an extended period off work due to stress. I have repeatedly informed the firm that I am living in overcrowded, temporary accommodation and that this money represents my life savings.

The firm continuously tell me someone from finance or compliance will update me and all their 'updates' consist of is we have no update for you - Perduco Law are holding my life savings how can you possibly not have an update on when I will receive my money?? I have received no proof of funds or confirmation where my money is or has been held for the past 5 weeks, there is no transparency with this firm.

I was also told that the Managing Director, would be in contact with me, yet I have not heard from him once since he asked me to remove my review in order to receive my funds.

I have been pulled from pillar to post by another company but because of this company i made the best decision ever, in them i got my divorce with all the hard work everyone has put into it.
I would definitely recommend them to anyone, they gave me a price and that was it they kept me informed all of the way.
Thank you all for a wonderful experience i couldn’t have wished for more, for me 20/10 thanks Marc 😀👍👌

Celeste Frank dealt with my legal requirements impeccably, as most are aware, the court system is a minefield and I was put at complete ease with the whole process and professionalism Celeste and her team provided at a fraction of the cost some legal firms charge.

I got the result I wanted and I can now move forward with my life.

Thanks again.

This is very misleading information as I was under the impression the fixed fee of over 2.5k was for my case to be dealt with however this was a fee for my first court date only. To then be told I would need to be pay another fee of over 3.7k for the next court date. Which was an extremely unexpected fee and therefore I will now have to find a company that will provide services without misleading expenses.

We work on a fixed fee billing model not on hourly rates

At Perduco Law, we charge our clients a one time fixed fee, which clients can spread over 12 months interests free. This enables our clients to know exactly what they are going to pay and what they are paying for from onset of their case, get rid off the stage. This guarantees that you will not waste legal fees with no good outcomes, as it happens with traditional hourly rates firms. View our fees

I am extremely grateful to Perduco Law for their exceptional legal support in my case involving a non-molestation and occupation order filed against me by my wife. Their team, including the solicitor and barrister assigned to my case, was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the process.

They carefully prepared my defense, guided me through every step, and ensured that my case was presented strongly in court. Thanks to their expertise, the case was successfully closed in just one hearing,which was a huge relief for me.

I highly recommend Perduco Law to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their dedication and efficiency truly made a difference in my case. Thank you for your outstanding service!

After having a very expensive and unfortunate experience with my first solicitor, I connected with Michael Mottram of Perduco Law. Michael was so very patient with me, from the beginning to end. Always very professional , but, understanding and friendly as well and when explaining to me procedures etc did not mind when I probably repeated myself if I asked the question again.
I felt very comfortable with Michael and happily I came to closure with my case.
After 2 plus years with one firm I had closure within less than half the time for which I cannot thank Michael enough.

Thankful I won the case with the help of their team

Always kept me up to date what was happening. Dominique was very professional in her approach to my case and offered very good advise and support during a very stressful time. She sourced a very suitable barrister for my case who was also extremely professional.
