Perduco Family Law

Just had an email from Peter the MD. Claiming that they can not pay the outstanding £4200 plus credit card interest that they owe me. As they are waiting to get it back from their creditor, Strip. But on my bank statement it states that the money was taken by Perduco law. Not a third party. And I have a copy of my statement for Perduco to look at. But Peter the MD and Michael from accounts are choosing to ignore me. So I will be going to the omnibus of law companies. As this is really not the correct behaviour from a respected company.

Perduco law wrongly took £4200 from me in October 2023. They have acknowledged and accepted that they owe me the money plus the interest as this was taken from my credit card. They have still not repaid the money that is owed to me. Although Micheal from accounts and Peter Pearcy have both received emails from me and have replied that I will be paid , this has still not happened. I will now be seeking legal advice and taking legal action to retrieve my money as I am now being totally ignored. AVOID FROM USING THIS COMPANY. From Lee Maunton

Awful company – a friend is owed significant funds that was incorrectly taken from his credit card. There are emails saying the refund is on its was but it is a year now – this law company was little help in the initial work they did anyways and then to have further funds taken by mistake (Perduco Laws mistake) was insulting. Employing professionals is meant to help in a bad situation not make a situation worse and add a whole set of other issues and worries! Personal emails from Peter Pearcy – Managing Director of Perduco Law confirms the refund will be paid but to date nothing has arrived and chasing emails being ignored – Avoid any dealings with Perduco Law as you could be adding to your list of woes!

In my opinion I felt that my case was not handled as efficiently as expected from a legal perspective and certainly not in a way that benefited me.There were multiple changes in my legal representation, with three diffrent solicitors assigned to my case within a year, and the last change occurring just one week before my final hearing. This led to a felling of poor management throughout the service, which I belive impacted my credibility and was reflected in the final settlement. In hindsight, I regret choosing this legal firm. From my experience, the service certainly did not meet my expectations. Date of experience: 28 May 2024

During the first hearing the service was great. Elona and Judith were knowledgeable and supportive throughout. It all went downhill during the next hearing after finding out they had left. The director Peter sold me with false promises to get my business again. He claimed he knew so much about the process and advised me incorrectly. When I voiced my concerns with my solicitor he then claimed he is not legally qualified so doesnt understand, he sure had a lot of legal advice though in the 1st call when trying to get me to pay the fee. My new solicitor was no where near as knowledgeable, failed to answer basic questions and disappeared with no follow up after the 2nd hearing. The fixed fee also is a con as they barely do any work and when you call you can’t even get through to who you need. Would avoid. Date of experience: 05 March 2024

Perduco have been handling my case since the 1st hearing and have been awful. You can’t get through to anyone on the phone, nobody gets back to you yet they are quick to chase you for your money hours after your hearing has finished for their next payment. That is the most you will hear from them. I had no updates on my case was not provided sufficient paperwork without chasing and was less than impressed with any contact I had with my new solicitor. Only good people I had the pleasure of dealing with was Judith and Elona who were great unfortunately they have both left which is not surprising.

My divorce has been pending since November 2022. No form of communication whatsoever from one of their team called Ekim Erbas. I’ve been promised a return call for more than 10 times, they never replied emails, I got replies when I was yet to balance up their fees then all went mute after payment. Don’t use them please. They only care about their money, they’ll gost you after you’ve paid Case reference number: 1668-5075-9952-2229

DO NOT instruct Perduco Law. They are rude, arrogant, incompetent and do not pay their clients counsel fees. They are scammers and must be avoided at all costs. If I could give 0 stars or less I would. 1

Lack of urgency + communication

WARNING: Perduco will take money without permission and not refund you. At no point did I agree to services and they have managed to take £2k out of my bank. Naturally a very stressful process with limited communication on their front

My experience with Perduco Family Law has been terrible. I wish I had never engaged them to agree a financial settlement for me. To say I am disappointed is a huge understatement. Date of experience: 01 August 2023

Absolutely shocking company very quick to take your money but when there’s money to be refunded back no one replies to emails and then others say they will get back to you with no response been chasing a refund now for months
