    Calm in the storm!

    As a previous client it was a no trainer to instruct Karen at Chester Russell and Russell. At times when the chain looked a little delicate and liable to collapse, Karen and Diane kept a very measured and calm approach.....offering solid advice when I was at my most stressed. As it turned out the exchange and completion sailed through on the same day. If you want knowledgeable and professional conveyancing solicitors, then I 100% recommend the team at Chester Russell and Russell.

    Welcome back, and thank you for such a fantastic review, Andy! Property chains definitely know how to test everyone's nerves, so we're incredibly proud of Karen and Diane for keeping things calm and guiding you through to a successful same-day exchange and completion. Wishing you all the very best in your new place!

    Thank you! Karen and Diane

    Predominantly dealt with Karen and Diane for the sale/purchase. Both were excellent at providing information and updates throughout and no call, email or query felt like too much. Very human and personable communication which helped to keep me relaxed during what is a stressful time. Having used Russell and Russell for the purchase of two properties and the purchase of another, I would highly recommend and won't hesitate to use them again for future transactions.

Knowing you wouldn't hesitate to use us again is the ultimate compliment. We are so glad that Karen and Diane were there to anchor you through it all.

    Absolutely brilliant, would highly recommend!

    Karen and Diane are absolutely brilliant, super responsive, personable and kept things moving so that we completed within our desired timeline. We couldn't be happier and would highly recommend them. A huge thank you to them for making our lives easier during a stressful period. Hopefully not moving house for a while but we would work with Karen and Diane again in a heartbeat!

    Five star service

    We recently asked Karen Woods from Russell and Russell to act for us in the sale of our home and in the purchase of our new one . Karen, Eileen and Diane were absolutely brilliant from start to finish - so professional, approachable,responsive and efficient. They were very friendly, quick to respond , reliable and extremely competent . They always answered our questions patiently and clearly , and ensured that the process moved along as smoothly and quickly as possible . We would never use another firm of solicitors, they have acted for us before and were brilliant on that occasion too. We trust them . Thank you Karen, Eileen and Diane, you are the Dream Team!

    Just completed on my 6th!! house sale with Russell & Russell over several years and thought I should finally leave a review! Each transaction has been dealt with professionally, timely and with good humour sprinkled in! Special mention to Karen Woods and Diane Asbury and of course the rest of the team too. There's a reason why I've always used them time after time for my conveyancing needs - they're the best!
