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 so much for taking the time to write such a heartfelt review, Jade. Supporting a close friend through family court proceedings is never easy, and we are deeply moved to hear how much Lucy’s support meant to both of you during such a challenging time. 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!

Great Experience!

As a first time buyer, the whole process is very daunting. Joe Sheriff was recommended and I can see why. Him and his team kept me updated throughout the whole process and guided me. Will definitely be coming back to Joe for my next purchase!

Sale of my Mother's House using LPA

Noel and his team were as efficient as usual, dealing with the sale of my Mother's house using my Lasting Power of Attorney. From an offer being accepted for the house from cash buyers, to completion of the sale, took 8 weeks and 2 days, and that was partly because we needed time to clear the house between exchange & completion, or it could have been quicker!! I am not local to Eastbourne but the majority of the communication is via email so it's not a problem. Noel also dealt with the sale of my own property last year, so yes I can certainly recommend him.

I had a fantastic experience working with Noel Martin at Stephen Rimmer Solicitors during the sale of our property. Noel was consistently professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. House sales can often hit unexpected hurdles, but Noel was always calm, friendly, and understanding during the more challenging moments. His clear advice and steady approach were incredibly reassuring and made a huge difference to the experience. I am very grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend his services to anyone needing a reliable solicitor.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear that Noel’s calm, friendly and professional approach helped make your property sale a more reassuring experience, particularly when those unexpected hurdles arose. We’ll make sure your kind words are passed on to Noel – we know they’ll mean a great deal to him. Thank you for choosing Stephen Rimmer LLP and for your recommendation. We really appreciate it and wish you all the very best for the future.
