I have used Frettens before to handle Probate and a house sale / purchase. I have always found them good. This time I decided to use them to buy a Freehold on a London based property while I was living abroad. Niki Adkins and her team were 1st rate with clear advice, guidance and fair transparent pricing. It was a pleasure to use them and I also received super positive feedback from the other people involved in the purchase.

Excellent service from James to rectify a situation to obtain a £10000 deposit refund from a solar panel company. He kept me informed at all times and kept within the costs discussed.

Yet again, open, honest, and straightforward advice - with a smile - from Clare Hallet and the Frettens team. We just finished a review with Clare, where she explained a covenant issue to us in plain English. She cleared up our confusion and convinced us not to spend money on unnecessary covenant insurance. We have now used Frettens for wills, trusts, conveyancing and business contracts; their straightforward approach is a refreshing change. I always recommend this company to friends and family, because of their professional attitude, straight forward honest advice, and simple pricing policy.

Thank you for the great review, Jonathan. So glad we could help and thank you for choosing us again. I've passed you comments on to Clare and her team. Take care.

I am so grateful to Ben Cobb at Frettens Solicitors for his expert guidance and professionalism dealing with our recent commercial property sale. He covered everything very promptly and attentively. Moreover, he answered questions and replied to emails almost instantly, which was greatly reassuring. I would most certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a commercial solicitor.

Absolutely first class. From my initial enquiry, they responded very fast and the level of service from all of the staff that assisted me at different stages, I cannot give enough praise. I am currently overseas and needed to do all business online. Frettens were able to help me, when other firms did not want to know. Highly recommended, and extremely fairly priced.
