The sale of our leasehold flat brought up some quite tricky issues and Leta Kerin dealt with them all efficiently and patiently, as with our purchasing of a probate property which was also not always straight forward!

I used Stephen Rimmer LLP on two separate occasions; a house sale 2020 & purchase 2024.
Leta Kerin was professional in her approach throughout the sale, giving good sound advice which helped to elevate the stress of selling in 2020. Her professionalism continued during the purchase, it was a pleasure to do business with her.

Thank you

We recently worked with Leta Kerin for the sale of our house and we couldn’t be happier with the service provided. From start to finish, Leta was brilliant and we felt supported and informed every step of the way ensuring a smooth transaction.

The second occasion we have used this firm. The first was to purchase the freehold on my mother's flat, and more recently to sell the flat. We were guided through both transactions by Leta Kerin, partner and solicitor who specialises in property law and conveyancing. Her knowledge and advice helped us enormously during a stressful time following my mother's death and during the pandemic. Never too busy to answer any questions and we were kept well informed. Advised of the cost, which was very reasonable before instruction and this was adhered to on completion. Strongly recommended.
