First class brilliant conveyancing for us, extremely diligent and hard working. Both Michelle and Leia were warm and understanding making the process the least stressful and the most pleasurable move we have ever done thanks.

Sarah Jackson was amazing from start to finish, supporting, advising and guiding me through all the stages of a long and difficult divorce process. Sarah was professional, sympathetic, understanding yet clear and fair at each stage. Sarah explained each step clearly and worked at my pace throughout. I would not be where I am now, stepping into a new chapter, without her. For that I am very grateful and I can't recommend Sarah enough. Thank you.

Isabelle Day and Georgina Bacon were so knowledgeable and supportive. They always kept me informed and I was always able to speak to either of them when I needed clarification on things. I would highly recommend Battens!

I was looking for advice and strategy help at the beginning of my divorce. Advice given was generic, felt quite out-dated, under prepared for (given 2 phonecalls and an information form being completed) and in reality I took no comfort from this meeting and follow up letter. I found chat gpt to be more helpful and a significantly better resource in many respects. I am certain there was nothing incorrect in their legal description of 'what normally happens in a divorce' and 'how a divorce works and is structured' but this information is freely available online. I was looking for specific help and advice on my personal strategy going forwards. In addition, the process of booking the appointment, going through the admin of the money laundering, multiple phone calls, form filling and paying upfront was cumbersome. I also tried to book directly through the website using one of the solicitors email addresses listed but I was told my email 'got lost in the system', which created an extended delay. Overall, it was a really difficult experience in a really tough time.
I was very lucky to have 2 fantastic solicitors advise me and to fight my corner in regards to my case, very highly recommend and would definitely use again
EMILY Davis outstanding solicitor with compassion professionalism and accuracy thank you .Dawn Tiso
Battens have been such a pleasure to deal with and have made the whole divorce process and all the other aspects along with it a smooth and relatively stress free. They are professional, compassionate and helpful and I can't thank them enough for all the hard work they have put in and for resolving everything for me.
We have used Battens for over 4 years for all matters from family law, conveyancing, to wills and estate planning and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Excellent service from start to finish. We worked with Emily to set up a Lasting Power of Attorney for my sister, Judy Haggett, and she made the entire process much less stressful than we expected. Everything was explained clearly in plain English, without any confusing legal jargon. Emily made us feel completely at ease and kept us updated throughout. I would highly recommend her

Not good . Took too long . Lots of inaccuracies. One case very simple the other more complicated. Had previously had a good experience with the company but this was then reversed.

Caring, efficient and deliver as fast as they can.
Emily was so very helpful especially coming to my mums house & the whole process was very efficient
Excellent work, very good communication. 100% recommended
Battens have been my solicitors from many years, dealing with all kinds of law issues for me. My recent dealings have been with Emily Franklin who is a very pleasant young lady who has dealt with all my matters in an excellent way and I would highly recommend her together with all the solicitors who have served me over the years
A huge thanks to Rachel and others in the team for all of their hard work helping us in our property purchase. Would highly recommend!
