    Excellent and stress-free will writing

    I went to Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP for my will writing and estate planning. Joseph was incredibly helpful, answered all of my questions clearly, and explained everything perfectly. He turned what could have been an otherwise stressful experience into a very simple and swift process, drafting an excellent, high-quality will. I am very grateful for his guidance and the peace of mind he provided, and I highly recommend him and Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP.

      Tara assisted us with two ongoing sales — one where we were acting for the buyer, and the other for the vendor. Both were genuinely difficult transactions, but Tara was excellent throughout: she kept us constantly updated, proactively chased all parties involved, and got both sales over the line despite the challenges. Her communication and persistence made a real difference, and we'd happily work with her again and recommend to our clients

      Tara was amazing - I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling their property

      I have used RFB previously when buying my property, but this was my first time working with Tara during the conveyancing process for the sale of the same property. From the outset, she was highly engaged, supportive, and clearly committed to keeping things moving forward. The sale turned out to be more complicated than anticipated, but Tara's dedication and reassurance throughout made me feel I was in safe hands. I would highly recommend her.

      Harry recently helped myself and my partner move house whiles acting as our solicitor. Harry was absolutely spot on with everything and is a huge credit to the RFB Legal team. We were first time buyers so had not experienced buying a house before. Harry reassured us along the way every time we needed him. Very honest and great communications throughout emails and phone calls and in person appointments. Harry passed us over to Lauren on completion day who as well continued the professional approach Harry gave us. Both are a credit to RFB Legal. Thank you for a brilliant experience.

      Mark Toland and Suzanne Nasery were both Outstanding. Re-mortgaging two Commercial HMO properties with Castle Trust but able to turn it around from instruction to completion in only 2 weeks was Unbelievable. Direct and fluid conversation and communication puts Mark and Suzanne above the rest. Our experience was fantastic and will spur us on to re-invest and re-mortgage further. If your are re-mortgaging HMO and Commercial and drawing down on equity Mark and Suzanne will deliver where we have had numerous experiences in the past where panel Solicitors are woeful and will not get into dialogue and just keyboard warriors which in Business really does not assure you as an Investor and then feel just a number. RFB and Mark and Suzanne smashed it where other fail.

      from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP

      Thank you so much for the exceptional feedback, Graham! Turning around a double commercial HMO re-mortgage in just two weeks is an incredible result, and we’re thrilled that Mark and Suzanne’s proactive, direct communication made such a difference to your experience. We look forward to working with you again on your future investments.

      Working with Ronald Fletcher Baker, and particularly Esin Taze, as a first-time homebuyer was fantastic. I found them to be thorough, efficient, clear and responsive from start to finish - despite having to deal with some of my offers falling through for various reasons. I couldn't recommend Esin / this firm enough for anyone wanting help on their home buying project.
