Excellent advice from start to finish. Efficiently prepared our draft wills and answered all our questions clearly prior to final review and execution. We would strongly recommend contacting Lisa Miller if you wish to write or update your will.

A very pleasant, professional, punctual experience. The office was welcoming, and dealing with the matters in hand, was a very good experience. I would definitely use this company again.

All staff were helpful and professional.
Thank you Keith for your review. We are pleased to hear that our entire team provided the helpful and professional service we strive for. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us.
Brockbanks administered an estate of a relative who had drawn out a simple will logged for an estate under £100k (with no property) logged with Oglethorpe and Broatch years before it had been taken over by Brocklebanks. The paperwork was all copied and handed over. Whole experience was a list of unanswered calls having to be chased, going over nearly two years. In the end it became clear the trainee solicitor Brocklebanks allocated was unable to complete simple tasks and even claimed there was no will. Leading to internal complaints and parts of the process having to be redone. The delays meant that one recipient (who died shortly after the process ended) never really saw the benefit of their inheritance could have provided them. There seemed to be a complete lack of supervision of trainee solicitors doing probate. Very unhappy with the service and attitude. Just because they are the only solicitor left in Keswick doesn’t mean they exclusively deserve your business (which will be generally allocated to another office elsewhere by the chain). Better and quicker solicitors are out there in other towns nearby. If you have to use them for your business, copy every bit of paper you send as your record, note everything you call them to chase and keep every email you send. Unfortunately Google review won’t allow unstarred reviews so reluctantly they have been given 1 star
It took almost 6 months to get the simple document I wanted made and every one of the three drafts they gave me (including the final one) had multiple spelling and or content mistakes. Wouldn’t recommend

I can highly recommend Lizzie Riley for conveyancing services. We had a particularly awkward case involving a previous solicitor from 3 years ago and Lizzie handled it magnificently, quickly and was proactive, friendly and helpful throughout. If we were to move again, (which I doubt) we'd definitely use her services again.

I had a very positive experience with Brockbank Solicitors. They dealt with my matter quickly and professionally. I was honest about my situation, and they listened carefully, understood the problem, and found a practical solution. I felt supported and taken seriously throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them.
Many thanks for the kind words Lukasz. We're pleased you were happy with the service provided.
Brockbanks have assisted us with many legal issues, most recently a conveyancing matter. Honestly the service and legal advice was FIRST CLASS! I would highly recomend them! Communication was prompt. Advice was astute and client focused. Paperwork was clear and easy to understand. Cost's were fair and reasonable. Most of all we felt protected and in safe hands. So yeah, I will be using them again.
Dear Vaughan, Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted to hear that our team provided a first-class service and clear, client-focused advice throughout your conveyancing matter. We greatly appreciate your recommendation.
