Why choose Brendan Fleming Solicitors*
Welcome to Brendan Fleming Solicitors
Brendan Fleming broke all the rules when he set up his firm in 1982 with regard to the image of solicitors.
Typical comments from other solicitors at the time:
“He talks like a common Brummie, is he really qualified?”
“He actually sees people without an appointment!”
“He has a creche in his office, we must report him to the Law Society.”
“He gets into work before his staff and leave after them!”
“I have heard he’s even open on Saturdays!”
“Have you heard his advert on the radio?!”
Brendan kicked up quite a storm!
He was in fact reported to the Law Society for having a creche in his offices and faced the
charge. It was claimed that he was unfairly attracting clients by the provision of care for their children.
Brendan received a summons to appear before the Law Society in London. His defence was simple:
“Please see tonight’s Evening Mail.”
The press had written a large article about Brendan and taken his defence stating that surely it could not be wrong to provide such a great facility for clients? They printed that the Law Society should be ashamed of themselves for ever considering such a malicious complaint.
The case was dismissed without a hearing.
Brendan Fleming instilled this passion and dedication within all his staff.
“Brendan is like a chocolate cake – you can’t wait to have a bit more!”
“I watched the video of Brendan at the Stop Forced Adoption conference and thought ‘I want him to be my solicitor.”
“I am very pleased with Brendan. He doesn’t fail you at all.”
“Brendan was straight to the point. I liked the fact that he was genuinely concerned about the costs to the client and, unlike other solicitors, didn’t just want to just take money for anything he could.”
“Brendan fought extremely hard for my daughter; she would have been very proud of him had she been there in the court room: any child would be proud of they way he fought.”
“How can you improve on perfection? You could not, and would not, find a better solicitor anywhere in Birmingham.”
“Really, really excellent, I had bad experiences with other solicitors which knocked my confidence but Brendan has restored my confidence so much.”
“Super service. Brendan saw me on Sunday in addition to Saturday at no extra cost.”
“We spent a long time looking for a family solicitor and Brendan Fleming Solicitors went over and above anything we could ever have expected.”
