Great service from Katherine Gilmore and Patrick Mears on the sale of my company and associated properties. Prompt, approachable and practical advice and good at demystifying the various complexities which occur. Streetwise in negotiating and dealing with buyer's legal team and proactive in developing solutions which work for both parties. A successful outcome. Would use again.

Superb service from Battens once again..

Battens supported us with a recent business acquisition. Brian Levine was extremely professional, efficient and very responsive. This enabled us to get the deal done at the required speed, whilst being very thorough with the advice we received. I would certainly recommend Battens and will continue to use their services in future.

Conducted our business with the minimum of fuss, efficiently and expeditiously, and within the predicted budget. A wholly professional organisation that I wouldn’t hesitate to use again or recommend to others.

AVOID!! I use this solicitors firm for two separate business matters. They talk a very good talk but never provide the goods. All they care about is taking your money and never getting any results for you. Thanks to them I’ve incurred nearly £40,000 worth of losses. Never again.

We have used Battens for almost thirty years and could not be happier with the service we have received. They are still our solicitors of choice, despite the fact we moved to London in 2005. A deed of variation on a previous loan agreement was just drawn up by Brian Levine. He was responsive, patient and incredibly efficient. Done and dusted in no time. Kudos!

Isabelle Day and Georgina Bacon were so knowledgeable and supportive. They always kept me informed and I was always able to speak to either of them when I needed clarification on things. I would highly recommend Battens!

Ross Siviter and Mandy Hutchinson at Battens did a fantastic job of our house move. We have moved a number of times in the past and I can safely say that the service and client care we received from the Battens team was the best we’ve ever had. I would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for conveyancing services.
