Whether you need a divorce, dissolution of a civil partnership, help resolving a co-habitation dispute, advice on a separation or help with reaching an agreement about your finances or children, our friendly and experienced Family Law team will guide you through the process. We offer clear, fast and practical legal advice to ease your decision-making process during a time of stress and emotional upset.
Wills, trusts and probate cover the area of law which deals with planning for later life, ensuring children are provided for and putting your affairs in order through a variety of processes. Perhaps never an easy thing to face up to, with many of us understandably guilty of putting such things to the back of our minds.
Disputes we commonly deal with include land and agricultural disputes, property disputes (including property fraud), landlord and tenant disputes, Will and inheritance disputes (contentious probate) and professional negligence. Disputes and litigation often start small but can quickly snowball into something unmanageable which becomes the sole focus of your day-to-day life.

Robin and Lucy were able to deal with my case at very short notice.
They knew what the best solution was for the issue I had and applied it with great efficiency and effect.
Their communication with me and solicitors for the other party was excellent throughout and that, with the timely preparation and service of the necessary documents, achieved the right outcome for both sides within the very tight timescale.

I can't recommend Penderlaw highly enough. Sam Bellamy was fantastic throughout the extremely difficult & stressful process of buying our new home in Cornwall. Also using them for the move of our business into a new premises in Cornwall. Will definitely be using them for any future legal stuff we need.

This company cover a comprehensive range of services and are a friendly and approachable family based team. It is easy to speak to any team member, even Robin himself, which is hugely reassuring for anyone on their own or in a vulnerable situation.From my own experience, I would have no hesitation in recommending them and wouldn’t consider changing to any other law firm.

From the first contact to the completion of the sale of my property, Penderlaw Solicitors handled each step of the process with exceptional care and attention. It was a tricky situtaion as I live in the USA so there which created a challlenges, but it did not delay the proceedings and the whole transaction was completed to a very tight timeline. They explained each step without confusing me with legalese! Working with Terri Hooper, Alice Vage and Shelby Hanon was really a pleasure. I am so glad I found this group of professional, efficient and friendly solictors. I will ceratinly use them again

Awful money grabbing people. Rang to ask a simple yes or no question, she refused to entertain it at all, only started to try and explain charges. Displayed everything that is bad about solicitors. One simple question, point of law, yes or no answer. What a terrible attitude.

We used Pender Law for sorting out probate and for the sale of a property. The service from the entire staff in both departments was exemplary. Great value for money, an attentive personal manner, and a professionalism and knowledge that matches any large London law firm. Highly recommended if you want an affordable, reassuring and professional family law firm

Highly recommend Penderlaw. Melissa Polglase dealt with my situation and made me feel totally at ease and dealt with it all quickly and efficiently whilst ensuring that she had all the information, and not rushing me at all, being I had not been in the situation of needing to instruct a solicitor before. Really appreciative of her time and effort
