At the end of December 2024 we will bid farewell to our esteemed colleague, David Place, as he embarks on an incredible new chapter as HM Senior Coroner for the City of Sunderland from 1st January 2025. David has been an integral part of Richard Reed Solicitors, bringing his expertise, dedication, and compassion to our clients and team alike.

While we’ll miss David, we couldn’t be prouder to see him step into this important role, serving our community with the same commitment and professionalism that have defined his career with us.

David, thank you for everything you’ve contributed to Richard Reed Solicitors and the Sunderland legal landscape. We know you’ll excel in this new position, and we wish you every success as you take on this vital role.

What our clients say

Excellent Service, Great service and very sound advice, thank you :)

Employment Law

Kat could not have been more helpful, valuable, professional or friendly. I could not have asked for a better experience in going through my settlement agreement than the service I received from Kat and she was the reason we achieved an outcome far more beneficial to me than I expected. In our conversations Kat was very clear about the process, she did not rush me through any of my questions or decision-making and I genuinely felt like it was important to her that I got the best outcome possible. I would not hesitate at all to work with Kat again or to recommend her to anyone else who would need legal advice. Thank you, Kat!

Employment Law

Terms and conditions, a necessity to protect your business and your customers. We needed to develop new T&C's to reflect our current operations. In this past this has been complex, expensive and time consuming. Including difficult too understand legal jargon and language that is often included in T&C's. As we operate with transparency is was very important that our T&C's are clear and easy for our customers to understand and agree to. Right from the beginning Phil removed the complexity and jargon, resulting in brand new T&Cs which are customer friendly. He made the whole process easy, efficient and painless! Thank you Phil!
