Selling and buying our home

This is the second time we have used Sophie and she was nothing but excellent. Her communication was amazing and kept us informed throughout every step of selling and buying our second home. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Thank you for an another great experience Sophie.

Sophie was nothing short of fantastic with what should’ve been a straightforward sale and purchase but which turned out to be quite complicated.
Sophie was easy to contact either immediately or by return phone call within minutes.
She has great calming, problem solving skills even when situations are particularly stressful. Her time management and communication skills ensured our chain went through very quickly and she gave us security and peace of mind , coming up with professional solutions to some quite complex issues.
Thank you for being so easy to talk to and so brilliant at your job. We couldn’t recommend you enough.

Richard James Review. 100% Recommend.

As soon as I spoke to Richard, I instantly knew I wanted to work with him. Approachable, polite, knowledgeable, and most importantly, he listened. I have felt throughout my process of working with Richard that I’ve been in the safest pair of hands. With my particular request Richard thought outside the box to ensure my best interests were protected, and the work was turned around very quickly. Richard has truly been my knight in shining armour and has given me much peace of mind. He knows precisely when to step in and act on your behalf, but never overstepping his boundaries. You truly feel you have someone working with you. To have someone you trust on your side, that helps you every step of the way, was 100% worth every penny. I very much value Richard’s expertise and I’m so incredibly grateful to Richard. I would not hesitate in working with him again.

Brilliant service when I moved house.

Incredibly helpful service when I moved house after my original purchase fell through. I was then able to move into a different (and happily much better property) in the short time scale that my buyers had left just before Christmas a few years ago. This could not have happened without Kitsons moving mountains to help us.

Divorce

Tony Hunt provided excellent legal support during a very lengthy and intricate divorce. His expertise, dedication, and unwavering commitment played a pivotal role in navigating the complexities of the challenging situations. In addition to Tony Hunts legal expertise, he had an empathetic approach and genuine care for my welfare which set him apart. I felt supported not only as a client but as an individual going through a challenging life transition.

Excellent and forthright service

Tony Hunt dealt with my divorce proceedings in a clear concise manner. All perceived obsticals were eliminatex without hesitation, thus removing any stress or anxiety. My evaluation was elevated even higher by the seemingly slow responses and long delivery by that of my wife's solicitor. This was a first class service. Tony came highly recommended and more than fulfilled the endorsement.

Another excellent conveyancing experience with Sophie.

This is the second time I have used Sophie for my conveyancing needs, on this occasion my purchase.
Sophie is conscientious, prompt, organised, efficient and effective. She knows her area of expertise well. It was genuinely great to reconnect with her. I would definately recommend her services to others and would certainly get in touch with her should I ever move again. I cannot fault her. The fact that I am in Exeter and she is working between Plymouth and Torquay was not a problem at all with modern technology. She is a valuable asset to Kitsons and I hope that they fully recognise that!

A client

Absolutely dreadful, did not do the work. Did not represent me in the divorce court, claimed for work they didn’t do and provided with what can only be described as a genuinely lame representation in correspondence with other solicitors. Advised not to report a crime and were very angry when I went to police and reported the crime. Charged for work they did not do. Avoid at all costs.
PS/ the perpetrator I reported was jailed for 22 years for the abuse. Kitsons put pressure on me not to report the crimes.
