The Most Exceptional Experience

"This was one of the most professional service we have ever had. We've used 2 different Solicitors before for our numerous property purchases over the years but whilst their services were good, nothing could compare to the level of exceptional services provided by Stephen Rimmer LLP,"

Two bedroom flat purchase

Overall smooth experience

I had full trust in Georgina and Roy who handled my first time buying experience. My only feedback would be that as a first time buyer I wasn’t familiar with the process and terminology, so sometimes felt that things could have been explained more clearly as someone without this knowledge. Overall though this was a minor thing, and I found Stephen Rimmer to be great communicators and I am happy with the service I had.

Got there in the end

Eventually got the job done. Had to be told to chase. Zero proactivity. Had to stay on hold to talk to my solicitor as did not return calls multiple times and did not receive updates unless chased. Overall the bare minimum was done with little customer service until the last two weeks of a four month process.

Unreliable service. I contacted Stephen Rimmer Solicitors three times in recent weeks and was told on each occasion that someone would call me back. No one ever did.

Utmost Professionalism and Proficiency.

We would absolutely recommend Stephen Rimmer Solicitors and particularly Rebecca Curcher who handled and managed our property purchase conveyancing. Rebecca was approachable, communicated straight away, has exceptional knowledge and advocates for you to ensure you are completely satisfied with every aspect, timely, efficiently and effectively. Rebecca is lovely to work with. She understands just how stressful these matters can be and works closely with you to help you get the result you want. Well worth the fees charged which are standard conveyancing rates. Money very well spent. 👍 Thank you Rebecca.

Emily was amazing from start to finish which also included one false start due to delays by the buyer but Emily stayed with us and guided us through what could have been a very stressful journey. So much of the work was done by Emily without any fuss and her confidence began to rub off on us too. We exchanged, completed and moved into our new home within a week of each other and couldn't be happier with the role Emily played in getting us to this stage. Emily Reed is a star and happy to recommend her to anyone and everyone. There is always an amazing team of people who help deliver such great outcomes and we know they were there helping Emily but she was our primary point of contact and Stephen Rimmer should be proud of all its people and particularly of Emily.

I recently used this company for a probate case, it has taken 4 years to complete, very difficult to get response to queries and received very poor service

We always try to give the best service possible and it is disappointing to learn when our levels of services fall short. We are now in contact and looking to resolve these issues.
