I have recently sold a property and through my estate agents they suggested Foster's solicitors. I am so pleased that I decided to go ahead with this firm. Sam Cubbit and her team worked very hard in pushing this sale through in a fairly quick time frame. They were always friendly and professional with me and responding quickly to any concerns I had. I will most definitely be using this solicitors again if needed and recommending to people

If your business has multiple owners, with more than one shareholder or partner, then you really ought to have an agreement in place setting out the nature of your business relationship.
Without an agreement like this when faced with unforeseen circumstances – such as the death of one of your business partners or perhaps when you face a disagreement – how to respond to these circumstances is unclear, making costly disputes more likely, all at the expense of the business itself.
We can help you manage your most important business relationships. https://fosters-solicitors.co.uk/business-solicitors/corporate-law
I couldn't recommend enough!!
I am, and will be forever grateful to Amber and her team! She understood what I needed in order to move forward, and she worked tirelessly on my 'situation' to achieve just that. Amber and Rachel tailored their approach to me, as I struggle to retain and sometimes understand things, due to my neurodivergence. Information was given to me efficiently and every deadline was met!
So if you're looking for an employment solicitor who's;
- highly knowledgeable
- sticks to deadlines
- who has a plan, with a plan... and even another plan!
- who's straight talking/transparent - at every 'stage'
... Give Amber Tansley a call!
herself and her team are formidable and surpassed all expectations!

Whilst the action is still in its early days, current indications are that many thousands of people in the UK received these implants before they were the subject of a recall notice in December 2022.

Purchasing a new build property can slightly lengthen or complicate the purchase process due to the additional work required to investigate the planning permissions and complete the necessary legal documentation. This is true despite the often short exchange deadlines imposed by the developers.

Throughout the entirety of the case which lasted a long time Harriet demonstrated the utmost professionalism, expertise and understanding. Always incredibly thorough, keeping me fully informed and ensuring that I understood every step of the process, I was particularly impressed by the prompt communication and explanation for me to understand.

We have an experienced and professional team who can advise you on the intricacies of creating a trust, the potential taxation implications (positive and negative) and provide support and advice if you are a trustee of an existing trust.
A trust is a way to give your assets to people of your choice (known as beneficiaries), in your lifetime or on death. The trust will name people to manage the trust (known as trustees). Unlike a straightforward gift, beneficiaries receiving gifts held in a trust will not have full control over the gift. Many people use a trust in conjunction with their Will to pass on their assets on death in a manner they feel is appropriate to a particular beneficiary.

Dreadful Experience
Fosters were acting on behalf of my buyer, and I feel it is important to share my experience with Foster Solicitors (Lowestoft), given the level of stress, uncertainty, and emotional strain their handling of this matter caused.
The lack of timely and effective communication with my solicitor had significantly prolonged the process and added unnecessary pressure to what was already a demanding situation.
What should have been a relatively simple purchase for my buyer (first time buyer – chain free), turned into a 10 month wait with constant issues, irrelevant enquiries or Fosters asking for information they’d already been supplied.
The emotional toll of this experience should not be underestimated. Buying and selling a property is widely recognised as one of life’s more stressful events, yet this process has been made significantly more difficult by the need to constantly chase for updates and the persistent uncertainty surrounding progress. Repeated delays, and ongoing introduction of new queries created a continuous sense of unease, frustration, and disruption to daily life
With all that in mind, the buyers mortgage also ran out during this process meaning he then had to reapply creating further delays, and addition to that there had to be another valuation survey carried out and his searches also ran out so they too needed to be done again.
In summary, this has been a protracted, frustrating, and emotionally exhausting experience rather than a fun and exciting time for me to move house. I would strongly encourage others to carefully consider alternative firms when dealing with a transaction of such importance, where clear communication, efficiency, and empathy are essential.

Dear Steph,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience and that the transaction felt stressful and prolonged.
As we were not instructed by you directly, and because of our duty of confidentiality, we are unable to comment on the specific details of this matter in a public forum.
However, we always aim to progress transactions as efficiently as possible, keep all parties updated, and respond appropriately to the requirements of the transaction, lender, and any third parties involved.
We appreciate that property transactions can be frustrating for everyone concerned, particularly where delays arise outside of our control. If the buyer would like to discuss any aspect of their experience with us directly, we would be happy to do so.

Fosters were an excellent choice to handle my Personal Injury claim.
I chose Fosters to handle my personal injury claim based on their excellent reviews, and I’m very glad I did. From my very first call with Lynn, I felt completely at ease and confident that my claim would be handled with care and professionalism — and I wasn’t wrong.
Throughout the process, Lynn, Victoria, and Sasha have been consistently responsive, supportive, and efficient. They answered every query promptly and arranged all necessary appointments with the relevant professionals without delay. Their communication has been excellent from start to finish.
Thanks to their hard work, I accepted what I believe to be a fair offer from the other side, and I’m genuinely grateful for the outcome.
