Excellent service

Excellent, professional and efficient service provided by Ross and his conveyancing team at the Yeovil office. They made complex information regarding my transaction straightforward to understand and answered my many questions promptly. The fees were clearly set out from the start and the transaction moved forward swiftly thanks to the hard work of the team. I would definitely recommend Battens to friends and family.

House sale

A refreshing change to a number of solicitors that I have previously encountered. During an extremely protracted sale, Jen Haynor always kept me informed as to the many obstacles put in the way of progressing the sale. She responded to my many communications in a timely way, and offered clear advice throughout the process. A breath of fresh air! Great work Jen.

Ross and his team were amazing with the sale and purchase of our property. We would 100% recommend him and the team to support others thinking of moving. They made the process easy, smooth and stress free with great levels of dedication to us as a customer. We couldn’t have asked for a better service. Amazing team, thank you

Buying or selling a home is one of the three most stressful things to do in your life. But if you have Ross Siviter by your side, with his unfailing good humour, reliability and prompt super-efficiency, the sting really is taken out of it all. We have now done it twice in the past six years, and each time Ross has held our hands, alerted us to any potential problems, calmed any troubled waters and kept us smiling throughout. He is the safest and nicest pair of hands, combined with all the legal nous you need (taking unusual and complicated transactions in his stride), and we cannot recommend him highly enough. We hope we never have to move house again, but, if we did, he would be the first person we’d call.
