    Thank you!

    Rory has been amazing from start to finish with a stressful and complicated work situation. This was the first time I have had to engage any sort of legal help and I was very anxious about everything, as it was all new to me. Rory took his time to explain everything in a way I could understand, asked the right questions and helped me to get the best outcome - and the outcome I deserved. He was quick to answer my questions and I never felt silly or like I couldn't ask something. I was kept up to date at every stage of the process and the honesty and professional integrity, especially with regards to fees, was refreshing and made KB a pleasure to deal with. Being able to leave a difficult situation in the hands of a trusted professional knowing they will do their best for you is alien to me, but I knew I could trust Rory the minute I explained my situation. He made everything so easy and I just cannot thank him enough for how much he did for me. Thanks again, so much.

    I used Rebecca Giles for my separation agreement - we had a initial interview via video link.... I found her to be very receptive and empathetic which helped greatly as I was in a very stressful situation at the time. Rebecca explained everything really well and I can't thank her enough for her time and expertise in concluding this matter at a reasonable cost.

      Sale of Estate

      We were appointed as Executors of my Mother/Mother in Laws Estate and Isobel Armstrong was appointed as our lawyer handling the sale of her estate. To say Isobel was a pleasure to work with, would be an understatement. Isobel was professional, quick and efficient handling what was slightly complicated sale with it being a Leasehold flat with a separate garage with aplomb. We were kept informed of progress of the sale at all stages and would highly recommend both Isobel and the company Kitson Boyce LLP without hesitation.

      Isobel has been excellent throughout the process of selling my father’s house. She is knowledgeable, friendly, approachable and professional. She was always available to speak to directly and answered emails very promptly - being able to speak to a named professional throughout the process made the whole thing seamless. Isobel is a real credit to Kitson Boyce.

      I cannot recommend Isobel highly enough. From my very first contact, I was met with professionalism, clarity, and genuine care. Isobel's communication was second to none. I never had to chase, she was always ready to provide an update. Nothing was too much trouble, and the service felt both highly professional and refreshingly personal. Isobel managed to make a stressful house move, far less stressful!

      I instructed Tony Hunt way back in 2019 to handle my divorce proceedings.(He was then working at Kitsons.) I didn't know then what an arduous and lengthy process this would turn out to be, but luckily I had the right man for the job. Tony is friendly, personable, professional, direct and calm. Obviously, he is legally proficient, but much more than this, he handles whatever events and happenings occur in a composed as well as an involved way; ultimately professional but very available as well. I would not hesitate in recommending him for all your divorce issues, which can be such a trial, even in the most simplest cases, and especially if there are any contests, or tricky, sticky or otherwise, aspects. I can't thank him enough for his care and his attention.

      Tried a few solicitors in Plymouth due to a few fall throughs and just went with whoever the estate agent suggested. Kitson Boyce were definitely the best of what we had. Lots of people say buying a house is held up by solicitors, I've only bought one so I don't know - but if it is true, not of Kitson Boyce! Very helpful, polite and useful for dealing with the other parties, especially an 'enthusiastic' estate agent. Thanks very much to Sophie as well as Rhiannon.
