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,

Excellent service

I cannot recommend Lucy Vickers highly enough. Watching a close friend go through a deeply stressful family court procedure was incredibly tough, but having Lucy in their corner changed everything.From start to finish, Lucy has been absolutely amazing. She did not just handle the legalities; she truly went above and beyond to provide exceptional support, clarity, and reassurance during an emotional and complex time. Her dedication, professionalism, and genuine care shone through at every single stage of the process.If you need a family law solicitor who is fiercely competent, deeply compassionate, and willing to go the extra mile for her clients, Lucy Vickers is the person you want representing you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your recommendation!

Very Good Service

I used Ben for his family law services to get my divorce. Ben was great but he was very very busy. This led to some delays in answers or my need to chase. But I cannot fault the work he did. Or that of his secretary.

I am so grateful to have been guided and supported by Ben Bradshaw and his barristers. He has been there through all the tough times I faced in court and during the proceedings. He has provided all kinds of support a person needs during court proceedings. And the proceedings ended in my favour and I owe this victory to Ben and all the barristers that supported me in court. 100% satisfied!

We were first time buyers looking for conveyancing services in our purchase. Our initial enquiry was responded to quickly amd courteously. Once we engaged formally we had an excellent service. Rebecca was our first point of contact, and she responded quickly and patiently to all our queries. We experienced some troublesome situations transactionlly via other parties, but Rebecca and her team were available to us all the time, and when we had to speak it was courteous professional and fact based. They guided us through the whole process in a positive inclusive manner, and were extremely patient. We had a successful transaction solely due to Rebecca’s team and colleagues. We can’t thank them all enough for their patience and support through this lengthy process. I can’t recommend their services enough.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. Buying your first home is a huge milestone, and we’re delighted to hear that Rebecca and the team were able to guide and support you throughout the process, particularly when some unexpected challenges arose along the way. It’s wonderful to hear that you valued Rebecca’s responsiveness, patience and clear, professional advice. We know how important it is to feel that your conveyancing team is there when you need them, especially during a lengthy or complicated transaction. We’ll make sure Rebecca and her colleagues see your lovely comments. Thank you for placing your trust in Stephen Rimmer LLP and for such a generous recommendation. Most importantly, congratulations on your first home – we wish you every happiness there!
