We had never been involved in a ‘no win, no fee’ arrangement and were somewhere between unsure and very skeptical about how the matter would play out when we signed up along with others. Nothing to do with Specters per se, it just reflected a series of shocking experiences with a number of professional services firms.

Overall, the process was simple. The matter took a while to move forward and/but we did get periodic updates. There was also a clear overview of options and potential outcomes as it moved to a close. The outcome was a much better result than we had anticipated and the only good thing to have emerged from a very messy affair relating to a collapsed investment scheme. Thank you to the lead lawyer, Paul Daniels, and his team.

I was very pleased with the service I received from Paul Daniel. He handled a claim concerning professional malpractice in a clear and helpful way. He, together with his team, obtained a favourable result at a reasonable cost.

There were periods of when there was little communication but this was because there was nothing new to report.

I had a frustrating experience with several solicitors who seemed to be wasting my time following an accident in 2019. It appeared that my case would never be resolved. However, Naaiem from spectre solicitors took charge of the matter and accomplished what the others could not over the course of nearly 3 years.

I strongly recommend working with her. She is always direct, promptly responds to calls, and goes above and beyond to provide assistance.
