Will Service - Great

I contacted Becky directly about writing a will off the back of the National Will Writing recommendation. This was my first will, and I did not know what to expect. I thought it would be a long process of giving details, etc. However, this was not the case; Becky was very thorough and covered all grounds to confirm what I wanted in my will. She answered all my questions and made me feel at ease with my decisions. Becky made the whole process very easy!

Excellent service

We are very pleased with the will service. Becky Shale has been very knowledgeable, kind to explain the process and patient to ‘translate’ all unknown to us terminology. Many thanks and wishing all the best.

My wife and I would highly recommend Olivia Graves from Rawlins Davy Reeves. She would communicate with us promptly when we had any questions or concerns. She is an exceptional solicitor and made a really stressful move seem manageable. She made sure if she was away from the office that we could call and still have our queries answered. Definitely worthy of a 5 star review.

Rawlins Davy Reeves Limited

Thank you, Pete, for your kind review. We’re really pleased Olivia was able to support you both through the process and make everything run smoothly. We wish you all the best in your new home.

I am absolutely shocked at the arrogance that has been shown after my father's will was sent through a non-tracked service and lost due to their lack of responsibility. I stress that this issue has been an on going situation for over a month now, with me having been patient and kind the entire time, understanding they may be a busy practice. However, I have been told that since my father passed away 6 years ago "there is no urgency", despite the fact that I am in need of the document for other processes relating to the passing of my grandmother in another country - to which there has already been a months delay now. They have also told me that it was "my responsibility to have the document after his death". Which is irrelevent to them and the fact is I did have a certified copy. However, I have moved countries twice since then and I am currently in between two cities over 1000 miles apart, unsure of where that copy is. All I needed was the original document for processes relating to a recent death and I am being contradicted in a, frankly, narcissistic manner. Despite me waiting already for a month for any clear response about the missing document, my patience, let alone understanding, has not been appreciated and I have been left with nothing but a matter that is not only not my responsibility to resolve morally but also pragmatically as Royal Mail asks for the sender to resolve the issue on their end. Shocking behaviour and service. I am absolutely shocked.

First Time Buyer

I was introduced to my Solicitor through family and, as a first-time buyer, I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Communication was excellent throughout, as they made the process straightforward and helped clear up any confusions I had with various terms, and their professionalism helped me feel more confident with the process. Thank you for helping me with the purchase of my first home, and I will be recommending your services going forward.

Leaseholder Issues

We are grateful to the firm and Mr Crabb in particular for handling an issue regarding the interpretation of our Head Lease, which was satisfactorily concluded. Mr Crabb then dealt with the transfer of that Lease to the Leaseholders.

This sale took best part of 10 months to get to completion with the most difficult buyer. Bronte handled this with complete professionalism added with some great ideas which helped in the final weeks. Kept us informed all along the way and clearly had our backs.
