We recently needed to use Forbes and was advised to use Ashley Marshall. We couldn't have asked for a better service. He was warm, welcoming and put us at complete ease. His communication skills are excellent and he listened to exactly what we wanted and was able to arrange it. I have no hesitation in recommending his service and will definitely use him in the future if needed.

I contacted Forbes solicitors at Gordon House about my late father's estate as they were near to where I live and I was familiar with the name. Ashley Marshall contacted me and was extremely knowledgeable, empathetic and did not try to baffle me with the law but was upfront and straight. I did not feel rushed in our meetings and he was always very helpful and accommodating. A very efficient service and I would highly recommend this firm.
A representative from Forbes Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 12 August, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words and recommendation. We're glad Ashley was able to support you with empathy and clarity during a difficult time. Your feedback means a lot to us.

I spoke to Lisa after a not so great experience with a different ‘award winning’ medical negligence solicitor.
Lisa took the time to listen to my experience and then offered advice on the different options available to me.
I was so impressed that I’ll now be making every attempt to bring my case to Lisa.
I couldn’t have asked for more help and advice than what was provided.
A representative from Forbes Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 07 August, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words. We're really pleased Lisa could help and that your conversation was useful. We look forward to supporting you with your case.

I recently worked with Jonathon Chung on a lease matter, and I was thoroughly impressed. His depth of experience, especially in the commercial space, was evident from the start, and he navigated the process with clarity and confidence. Jonathon was very prompt in communication, always responding quickly and keeping me in the loop at every stage. Most impressively, everything was completed within just two weeks — smooth, efficient, and hassle-free. I would highly recommend Jonathon Chung to anyone needing professional, legal support. I will be definitely using him again in the future.

20 weeks to complete on the sale of my property. No chain (on either side) and no mortgage (cash investor) to worry about. Very slow pace of work and often slow responses to enquires. Won't use again and wouldn't recommend for conveyancing

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’d like to sincerely thank Paolo Passerini from Forbes – what an absolute gentleman. Highly recommended.
I found myself in court for a minor driving offence that really shouldn’t have gone that far. I didn’t think I needed a solicitor, but when I tried to explain myself, I struggled to get my point across clearly.
By sheer luck, Mr. Passerini happened to be in the courtroom waiting for his next case. He could see I was having a hard time, and—completely unprompted—stood up and offered me free legal advice. The court was then adjourned so I could seek proper representation. Mr. Passerini took the time to review all the documents, gave me excellent guidance, and ended up standing beside me in court, pleading my case—all out of kindness and good will. He didn’t charge me a penny. He saw I was just an ordinary working person trying to navigate a tough situation.
I genuinely cannot recommend him enough. He’s a rare kind of professional—someone who fights for what’s right, not for financial gain, but because he cares about people. A true gentleman with a big heart.
Thank you again, Mr. Passerini. I hope one day I can repay the favour.
A representative from Forbes Solicitors LLP responded to this review on 18 June, 2025:
Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience. We're incredibly proud of Paolo and the compassion, professionalism, and integrity he brings to his work.
