    I have used Shelley for several purchases and I’m also industry based so understand just how important professional conveyancing is. You cannot underestimate the service from Shelley and George and I felt safer at every juncture knowing that team were in my corner. Straight forward, proficient sale achieved once again. Thank you

    Absolutely fantastic experience in what has been a very stressful 10 months. Special thanks to Oliver and George who were a great support to us . As solicitors go they were on the ball and went the extra mile we really appreciate the hard work that has been put into this transition . I would highly recommend Lester Aldridge and would have no hesitation in using their services again they are streets ahead of other solicitors - thank you for everything

    Shelley Cole and her team, Hannah and Joel, were absolutely flawless conveyancing for our purchase of our first home. We could not recommend them enough. From the very start, they were easy to communicate with, informative and quick to answer any questions that Charlotte and I had. They made our first time home purchase straight forward and they were all a geniune pleasure to deal with. Thank you so much Shelley, Hannah and Joel. We look forward to working with you in the future. All the very best Joe and Charlotte

    We had an excellent service on our sale and purchase. Genuinely the whole thing nearly fell apart when other solicitors in the chain didn't do their jobs. Shelley and Oliver were always available and made sure our part was done. They had to spend a lot of time chasing and cajoling others in the chain. I'm so grateful we have a home!

    Lester Aldridge have been an absolute breath of fresh air in an industry which is notoriously slow and frustrating. I had the pleasure of having Jon Deadman who professionally handled the sale of my property and kept me up to date throughout and provided clear and easy to understand advice. I later had the pleasure of having Shelley Cole who in a stressful time of stamp duty deadline, went beyond what anyone would expect and managed to complete my purchase before the stamp duty deadline. She was sending me emails after 9pm at night which no one should be expected to do but she wanted to get my case completed for me and it was very much appreciated. Her advice was incredibly clear and easy to understand. I was just completely amazed with the level of service she provided. She deserves a huge reward from Lester Aldridge for providing beyond good service and being such an important asset to the Lester Aldridge brand. Thank you Shelley!

    I cannot recommend Shelley Cole enough, Conveyancer! As if buying a property was not stressful enough then add Covid challenges, working from home and chasing a stamp duty deadline along with numerous other purchasers. I was told, given the hour that this would be impossible by associated parties I was dealing with- well despite some last minute issues (my end) and a protracted scenario with banks and funds, Shelley got my purchase over the line with a cool, calm and collected approach - I felt every bit of advice Shelley gave me could be relied upon, my Mortgage Adviser agreed she was stand alone with the service offered at this stressful time. Thank you Shelley Cole.
