Two sales and one purchase!

From start to finish on all three properties, the compliance teams were fantastic. One was the sale of my Dads house who had sadly passed and Nicola was so good and compassionate. Special mention must go to Lynn and Julie, paralegals who were outstanding. I would recommend Richard Reed 100%.

Brilliant at what they do

My mortgage broker recommended Reed solicitors, that’s the best she ever did for me. Reed solicitors were always keeping me in the loop of my progress and always ready to answer my questions on time. Thank you

Great choice for a house purchase. My side was completed in a very efficient manner, responses always within 24 hours and provides explanations when requested. While reasonably priced, you do get what you pay for and I would recommend Richard Reed above any high street offering.

I recently used Richard Reed Solicitors for the purchase of my new home, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the service. From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and reassuring. What really impressed me was how quickly everything was handled, they managed to complete the whole process in just 6 weeks! Communication was clear and timely, and I always felt like I knew where things stood. They made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. The whole team was approachable and genuinely supportive, which made a big difference. I highly recommend Richard Reed Solicitors to anyone looking for a reliable and proactive solicitor.

As a first time buyer, it can feel quite daunting when the house buying process starts. Nicola and Joanne have been nothing but fantastic. They made the buying process so hassle free and their communication was excellent - cannot fault them one bit!
