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,"

We had a very positive experience using Stephen Rimmers Solicitors. Jack, in particular, was outstanding—he was proactive throughout and kept us well informed at every stage with excellent communication. The whole team provided great support, which made a real difference during what can be quite a stressful process. Jack remained professional at all times and helped make everything feel much more manageable. I would highly recommend Stephen Rimmers Solicitors to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive service.

Jack and his team are delighted to have helped Rob. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review.

Leta and her team were supportive and communicated regularly throughout a challenging house sale. As a returning client I would have no hesitation in recommending conveyancing services.

Having a small portfolio of five properties, I have used Stephen Rimmer several times. In fact, they are working on us buying the freehold of a flat in London right now and I have to say they are terrible. They are completely non responsive and then defensive when challenged. Historically, they had been great but over the last couple of years, they have steadily gotten worse to the point that I would absolutely be too nervous to use them again. I cannot believe that a professional organisation will simply ignore emails, pass the buck and then eventually almost stop answering at all, despite them actually supposedly acting for you! A further issue; I have a covenant on another property and I have asked them to help me extracate myself from this 3/4 times now but again, no response. My advice, don't use them because, at the least, they will frustrate you and at the most, leave you with much larger issue.

I 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.
