An amazing company with people that care about their clients.
I want to sincerely thank Fosters Solicitors for the exceptional support and representation I received during my personal injury claim. Lynn, Victoria, and Chris were fantastic from start to finish—compassionate, professional, and incredibly efficient.
Lynn was particularly reassuring throughout, always taking the time to explain everything clearly and making sure I felt informed and supported. Victoria handled the details with real care and precision, keeping everything organised and on track. Chris provided sound legal advice and was a calm, confident presence during what was a very stressful time.
Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I achieved a positive outcome, and I always felt like they had my best interests at heart. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fosters Solicitors to anyone in need of help with a personal injury claim—they really do go above and beyond.

When buying a leasehold property, you are only securing the leasehold interest and the right to live in that property for a set number of years, you will not own the property outright. By purchasing a leasehold you are agreeing to the terms of the lease granted by the person or company who owns the building or land the property sits on, usually known as the freeholder, landlord or the lessor. https://fosters-solicitors.co.uk/residential-property/leasehold

It was a very difficult and ultimately unsuccessful business sale, we brought Fosters in after some months of negotiations, although the deadline was then very tight Josh and Polly worked quickly to produce an SPA within a week. They were always attentive, responsive and professional and when it became clear the sale was going to collapse Josh seemed to feel the frustration and disappointment almost as much as we did. We highly recommend them as having professionalism and the human touch in good balance

We recently engaged Fosters Solicitors for legal support on a commercial property purchase involving specialist finance, and we are extremely satisfied with the service we received.
James Allen was our solicitor on the matter, and his knowledge, professionalism, and responsiveness were outstanding throughout. He guided us through a complex financial structure with clarity and precision, ensuring all legal aspects were handled thoroughly and on time. James worked seamlessly with our lenders and other parties involved, helping to overcome any challenges swiftly and effectively.
His attention to detail and commitment to keeping us informed at every stage gave us complete confidence in the process. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fosters Solicitors—and particularly James Allen—for any commercial property or finance-related legal matters.

Slow and no empathy
Fosters are acting on behalf of our buyers. They are very slow and have made the whole process much more stressful by their poor and tardy communication with our solicitors.
We are still waiting on an exchange (and completion) date even though they have had responses to the buyers queries for over two weeks.
When pushed by our estate agent they simply quoted their internal target timescales and showed no urgency or empathy for the families involved in this protracted debacle.
Updated 13/06/25. Almost four weeks since your response and after having received responses to the latest buyer's queries on 26/05/25 it seems that progress has stalled again.
By your calculations you will be above the national average next week.

Dear Mr Hick,
We have read your review carefully and have noted your comments and the concerns that you have raised. We do take any expression of dissatisfaction with our service extremely seriously. However, we are restricted by Law Society regulations, and I am sure that you can appreciate that we are bound by these restrictions which, in practice, means that we are not in a position disclose any information to you as you are not our client. But we can confirm, we are 10 weeks into the transaction from the point of receiving draft contracts. We understand parties in the chain wish to move withing the half term. The national average for transaction to complete is currently 12 to 14 weeks.
