Residential Conveyancing

The whole process has gone so well I can’t believe it and that has been down to both Shelly and Calvin . You have both been fantastic, not only on this purchase but the sale and purchase you did for us earlier in the year too.

Conveyancing

From contacting Ridley and Hall to completion on our old and new home the process was very straight forward and easy. Both processes were handled by the same solicitor and the whole process was very easy. We had very clear communication and updates on both properties throughout. I am very grateful for how both Shelley and Calvin communicated with us, as the issues with our chains were not great but handled very well by our solicitors and it took the stress away from us. We will 100% recommend and will return in the future should we need to use solicitors again.

Friendly, professional and handled shared ownership sale brilliantly

Both Shelly and Calvin were exceptional in dealing with my house sale and purchase. House moving will always be stressful, and there were a few contributing factors that made this process slightly more stressful for me, however, both Shelly and Calvin treated my enquiries with kindness, care and professionalism. Shellys up beat and professional approach gave me confidence and reassurance, whilst Calvin's calm demeanour and was a real comfort when things were getting complex. They work seamlessly as a team and were always on hand to answer any queries. Many thanks to you both for getting me into my new home.

Had an awesome experience with Ridley and Hall, they were very informative and approachable. It was our first house and they never made us feel silly for asking questions that I'm sure they get asked all the time and were generally very responsive throughout. They helped with legal jargon and the app they use very intuitive if technology is your thing. Really appreciate the whole team and their hard work but especially to Marina, Shelley and Calvin!

Shelly was always kind, calm, approachable and professional throughout and I really can't recommend her and the company enough. Thank you!

Cannot fault the service we received when approaching Ridley & Hall (#RightReasonsRH) to undertake a property/land registry request. They were very efficient and provided excellent communication through a complicated legal process. Thanks to Shelly for your personal effort and thoroughness to ensure the process was navigated quickly and accurately. The transaction cost was also very competitive.
