Making a will

I found Maria very professional and friendly and nothing was too much trouble even though I got my appointment time wrong!! and wanted to make an amendment at the last minute!! She still had a smile on her face. Would not hesitate to use her again. Thank you for your professionalism and promptness in making something at the best of times difficult to discuss very easy to deal with. Stuart

Outstanding experience

I cannot fault my experience in dealing with Becky to write my Will. She is professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate, and made me feel comfortable from our first interaction. I would not hesitate to use Becky's services again and would recommend her to anyone requiring a Will. Thank you, Becky.

Completion of flat purchase

Bronte and Joanne did an excellent job with this purchase, which experienced a lot of delays from the seller's side in creating a new leasehold agreement. The team at Rawlins Davy Reeves kept me informed, they chased the seller's solicitors numerous times, made the necessary proposed changes to the new leasehold agreement, and guided me through the last few stages to complete without any problems. Many thanks to them.

We have been using Daniel Stanton for a few years and on our last transaction he proved to us again why we keep on using him, he had our best interests covered all the time which is not easy seeing that we live in Australia.

Patricia Smith and her assistant Caroline recently acted on our behalf in the sale of a property. Despite a very difficult buyer, Patricia was attentive and patient and the communication throughout was faultless. I would have no hesitation in recommending Patricia, her team and the firm.

Have recently dealt with Rachel and Joanne who helped me with my sale and purchase, they both went above and beyond to get things sorted, both were so friendly and personable and completely put my wife and I at ease. I can’t recommend them enough and am so grateful for their help.
