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

A smooth and successful purchase of our new home. The legal work was carried out in a professional and proactive fashion. All potential problems were anticipated and dealt with. We had total confidence in the legal management of both our sale and our purchase.

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.

Thank you so much for your fantastic review, Darren. We’re delighted to hear that our conveyancing service was brilliant from start to finish and that you felt the quality justified the price.

We used Kathryn Shaw and Mandy for our sale and purchase of our new property. We highly recommend them, they pushed so hard to get us in as quickly as possible and our purchase was complete in 11 weeks! We will definitely use them again and highly recommend anyone needing conveyancing to contact Coodes

Dear James Thank you so much for taking your time to write this kind review. We were delighted to be able to help you. Coodes

Im not their client but owner of the only other property in the chain. We are 9 weeks into the process and still have not heard from Coodes.My recommendation would be to go elsewhere if you want a good service. They need to look at the way they work

A representative from Coodes LLP responded to this review

Dear Joe Thanks for taking the time to share your perspective. As you are not our client, we are limited in what we can discuss publicly and cannot discuss anything with you directly. We take any concerns around a property transaction seriously and would be happy to understand more offline. Please contact the relevant estate agent with details so they can pass them on to us and we can look into this appropriately. Coodes
