What our clients say

Excellent firm to deal with, very helpful and service second to none… I have dealt with Paul Lancaster and he has gone above and beyond in helping me with my long term issue and successfully resolving the matter without the need of entering into courts. They take everything into consideration as certain matters are very sensitive but Paul did excellent job in advising where I stand and supporting where I required the need of a solicitor.

Paul Lancaster goes beyond professionalism. His gentle and understanding approach offers ease and reassurance. He approaches all matters with sensitivity and great diligence. All matters are dealt with in a swift manner and there is minimal delay in replying to messages. 
I have already recommended this firm to some friends because of my belief that matters will be dealt with efficiently and with a positive outcome. 
Thank you to Paul for a stress free and professional experience.

I’m impressed with the level of service I received from Paul Lancaster. What fantastic people they are at Blacks! Not only solicitors but caring and comforting people. The service I received was exceptional and went above the norm by a long way. I lived in Leeds for many years and have used many of the legal firms in the city at some point. Blacks is the best of all legal firms I have encountered in my life. Deepest thanks. Fantastic company.

Paul handled my case with speed, sensitivity and tact, often anticipating my needs, yet working collaboratively to achieve a fair resolution. I was never patronised, and felt that no query was too small or insignificant to raise, despite Mr Lancaster's seniority; this approach nurtured trust and put me at ease - a highly prized feeling when faced with emotionally-charged legal negotiations.

Extremely happy with the service I received from Anna. From the first meeting to the conclusion, everything she did was prompt and professional. If I ever need a solicitor again I will definitely use Blacks. Highly recommended.

How do you know which Solicitor to use when you have a problem or need some advice? I've worked with lots over the years & can now say with confidence that I have found Blacks Solicitors in Leeds to be very, very good indeed.

I would like to say a massive thank you to Paul Lancaster of Blacks Solicitors who went more than an extra mile supporting me and defending me in my recent divorce proceedings. The level of service was outstanding. Paul is a gentleman of the highest quality, supported by his colleagues who are equally impressive in supporting their clients and obtaining the best results they can, every single time. If you want the best help and support then look no further than Blacks.

Consistent quality and communication is what you need from a Solicitors and that’s what you get from Blacks. I have no qualms about recommending them to anyone who needs help with a full range of law quandaries.

I would like to thank you for your totally professional assistance in concluding this saga which has been going on for the last 3 years. I believe the outcome is the best we could have hoped for and you have been excellent throughout the last 12 months. We could not have done this without your support/help and clarity of advice. I know sometimes I may have been a bit demanding and possibly did not understand the intricacies of Family Law but you have really been supportive in all the direction you have given/offered us.

I was advised to use Blacks as my father used them for years and told me they were very good. I can honestly say that this is an understatement. During my unfortunate and very messy divorce, Paul Lancaster not only managed to win every court battle I had against one of Leeds' best Barristers, but also handled my costs to such an extent that my ex-wife’s fees were double my own. Literally. 
Blacks took the time and effort to care for me and my poor financial position and we still came out on top. I am indebted to this law firm.
