We used these solicitors through our estate agents as we hadn’t been overly impressed over the years with local solicitors. Tilly Bailey and Irvine were professional throughout with a special thank you to the Solicitor Rachael Lee who was outstanding even when our buyers announced they wanted to complete in the next two weeks. From start to finish the sale took 8 weeks and I cannot thank them enough.

I cannot thank Neil Taylor enough for the support and professionalism shown throughout my court case. From start to finish, he guided me through an extremely stressful situation with compassion, reassurance, and clear communication. Thanks to their hard work and expertise, the outcome was better than I had hoped for which I am extremely grateful for. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a solicitor during court.

I cannot recommend this team highly enough. From the very beginning of my case, I was treated with kindness, professionalism and genuine care. This was one of the most difficult periods of my life, and having such strong, supportive and knowledgeable people by my side made all the difference. Shamin took on my case and gave me a chance when I truly needed help. Her guidance, experience and calm approach gave me confidence throughout the entire process. Freya was absolutely incredible. She supported me for almost two years, always responding quickly, helping with every document and bringing calm when I felt overwhelmed. She was patient, understanding and consistently went above and beyond. I would also like to thank the barristers, Heather Swan and Joanna Garvey-Smith, for their professionalism and representation in court. Their work and support during the hearings were an important part of achieving this outcome. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of the whole team, we achieved an excellent result for me and my children. I will always be grateful not only for the outcome, but for the way I was supported throughout the journey. I feel very lucky that I had such amazing people representing me and I would highly recommend them to anyone going through a difficult family matter. Thank you again for everything.

I can’t thank Tyler Plummer enough for the incredible support and dedication they showed during one of the most difficult experiences of my life. Losing my dog was emotionally overwhelming, and the legal process of fighting to get him back felt impossible at times — but Tyler was there every step of the way. Their communication was outstanding from start to finish. They kept me informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and always made time to answer my questions, no matter how small. I truly felt listened to, supported, and understood. Thanks to their professionalism, compassion, and persistence, I was able to navigate the situation with confidence. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better solicitor. If you need someone who not only knows the law but also cares about their clients on a human level, I highly recommend Tyler.

We started using these solicitors for the sale of my property, initially I was concerned that they weren’t local however, I had nothing to be worried about. The team I was allocated to, was Kate Dixons Team at the Hartlepool office, they were available to speak to every time I phoned them or emailed them and they always answered any query I had. Unfortunately my sale fell through twice before we found a buyer to complete with and every time I was fully supported through everything from these friendly helpful individuals. I can not recommend this team more highly and I thank them all very much for all the support over the last 9 months.

A representative from Tilly Bailey & Irvine LLP responded to this review

Thank you for the kind, 5 star review Tracy. We'll pass your feedback onto Kate and the team who will be over the moon to hear this.

Kelly and Frankie are awesome 🤩

Kelly and Frankie have guided me through a very tough conveyancing process. They kept me up to date at every juncture and gave useful and practical advice when I hit bumps in the road. Friendly, down to earth and pragmatic. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you both so much ❤️

We have recently used Maria Northrop's team from TBI conveyancing Stockton office for the sale of my son's property. There were a few issues with the buyer which caused a few concerns, but Maria and her team especially Laura and Kelly were always helpful, courteous and polite during any transaction. They are currently handling the purchase of my son's new property and I would highly recommend them for any conveyancing support. Thank you for all your help.

Thanks for the 5 star review ! We're glad that Sabrina was able to help you, and made your first purchase much easier. We'll be sure to pass your feedback onto Sabrina, and the entire team. Thanks again!
