Aimee was very helpful from the beginning. She answered any queries very promptly and explained exactly what the legal procedure was. My mother’s estate went to Probate quickly and was back in a month enabling us to move on with the will. I would thoroughly recommend Aimee personally.

Conveyancing

Kerry was exceptional in her attention to detail, professional knowledge and promptness to questions posed to her. She clearly explained my options when decisions had to be made and I had total confidence in her at all times. She made the often upsetting process of a probate house sale with land registry complications as smooth as possible, which was much appreciated.

Great service from Coodes, I was recommended them to handle the affairs of my late mother. Bernadette dealt with the probate work and has been excellent in doing this, with good, professional, friendly communication all the way. Conveyancing for the sale of the house was handled by Sophie Jones and Debbie Mills. Again, they both provided an excellent, professional, helpful and friendly service. Thanks to all the Coodes team!

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 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
