I was so lucky I came across Mr Simon Pook at Clarke and Son as he was so different to my previous solicitor. Mr Pook is very tune to the need of a client and extremely helpful as well as patient in clarifying any queries. He is incredibly efficient, conscientious professional and one of rare kind of solicitors with ‘where-is-the-will-there-is-the way’ approach. Mr Pook manages his clients’ expectation well, but if there is any slim chance to do something even more efficiently, he will let you know. I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Pook. I am extremely grateful for all the help and determination

My husband and I were selling and buying a house in Basingstoke. We decided to choose Clarke and Son as our solicitors and we were so pleased that we did.
They were fantastic throughout the whole process, efficient with our paperwork and patient with our many questions (and other solicitors that took some time to reply). It made the buying and selling process very simple and Marie kept our chain moving when everything else seemed to stand still.
We would definitely recommend Clarke and Son to anyone and would like to say thank you to the whole team.

I am an attorney in California, and I needed some quick advice about a case in Basingstoke County. I reached out to Clarke and Son with my question, and very promptly received a response from Andrea Boultor, a solicitor at the firm. Her response helped lead me in the right direction, and helped immensely with my case. I highly recommend contacting Clarke and Son, and specifically Andrea Boulter with any family law matter. Thanks Andrea!

My sister and I used this firm for a very urgent matter. The solicitor was most helpful before our visit, talking to us on the phone as neither of us live in Basingstoke. Andrea Boulter was so understanding and was brilliant when we actually met. Ian Beavon was also extremely helpful and supportive and both put themselves out for us. We still have to go to another meeting but was impressed with our first visit.

Very professional service from this company we have been using their services over the years and have recommended them to several companies.
Will Anderson head of the corporate and commercial arm is highly efficient and professional and has expert advice on all matters we have needed his services for, from shareholders agreements to franchise contracts and many more aspects of business law.

Was recommended to use Clarke and Son by friends for obtaining Probate and dealing with settlement of an estate. We were not disappointed as the service was excellent. The solicitor dealing with our case was very efficient, always explained options and responded to emails and other communications in a timely manor. We were quoted a fixed price based on the complexity of the estate which was positively competitive with a well known national Probate service provider with the added benefit of more flexibility in options and the comfort dealing with a local solicitor with whom you could develop a rapport

Personally I wouldn’t use this firm again. I’ve had to do so much chasing and now, nearly six months after exchanging on some land I purchased, Ive still not received official documents. On numerous occasions I received no reply to emails. I was misquoted from the outset. When one of the partners, paul stepped in, things seemed far more efficient. I know there are lots of good reviews on here, which is why I chose Clarke&Sons, but in my experience the service hasn’t been great. I’m still awaiting my documents. I hope they arrive soon!
