Painful chain

Laura we have to say was excellent throughout what was a pretty torrid experience due to what was happening further down the chain. Thoroughly recommend her professional services.

Compassionate and Professional Support Throughout

We instructed Julie Hatton in relation to a medical negligence case following the stillbirth of our baby. From the very beginning, Julie handled our case with compassion, sensitivity, and professionalism. She explained each step clearly, ensuring we felt informed throughout the process. Julie approached everything with care and understanding, while also demonstrating a high level of expertise. Her communication was consistent, and we always felt that she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for us. We cannot thank Julie enough for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone needing support with a similar matter.

Sound advice and great support

From the start, Demelza and her team were accessible, honest, supportive and understanding. Her assurance and decision making instilled my confidence in her and I was right to trust her. Her empathy with the affect the process had on me was reassuring and helped me through a troubling period. I'm very grateful for her professionalism and her support

Sale and Purchase

Lianne recently handled a sale and purchase for us. We had non stop issues with our buyers solicitors and various other issues with the property we were purchasing. Lianne was excellent throughout the entire process. Always keeping us up to date with progress and any questions we had were answered very quickly. Constantly chasing for us to make sure that we could get exchanged and completed on a short time frame. We are now in our new home and received a very nice email this morning to wish us well in our new home.

Housing & Property

Selling a property

Truly excellent support. I was told that I would be supported to sell my property as quickly as possible. This was true to their word. The house sell took unexpectedly over 10 months to come to fruition and I was supported through the emotional turmoil. Excellent solicitor that you can feel confident in. I’m very grateful to them.

Thank you for this incredibly honest and heartfelt review. A 10-month sale is an absolute marathon, and it can be a massive emotional rollercoaster. Congratulations on finally closing this chapter, and all the very best for the future!

Used for conveyancing and totally brilliant from start to finish. They are certainly not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and we couldn't fault them. We recommend them and would use them again.

We used Kathryn Shaw and Mandy for our sale and purchase of our new property.

We will definitely use them again and highly recommend anyone needing conveyancing to contact Coodes
