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,"

Noel is a legal wizard.

Bought many properties in my time and none of them have gone as smooth and stress free as the latest one I completed on with Noel. Quick responses with a calm rationale to every problem we encountered. Always reassured me and got the job done quickly. Will not be using anyone else!

Excelled service

After recently using Stephen Rimmer to assist with our move, we also used them for drawing up a Declaration of Trust. In both instances Joe was incredibly helpful, always really quick to respond to our queries and made the whole process run really smoothly. I am happy to continue to use them in future for any other services we may need.

Awesome - would totally recommend to everyone

Although there were many complications during the process of selling my house, Noel was always on the the ball and helped me understand exactly what was going on. Outside of that, his secretaries were a pleasure to talk to when he was unavailable as they were able to fill me in on any information necessary. Always got a call back as soon as it was possible, with minimal waiting time in-between. 10/10 service

We will be sure to pass your kind words on to Noel and the rest of the team.

New to the process of purchasing a flat in the UK, Noel Martin of Stephen Rimmer LLP was highly recommended by several contacts and very happy to say the references were spot on. Always available and open to answering even the most ridiculous questions I will absolutely be using their services again.

Wonderful to hear that Noel was recommended by several people and that you had a great experience too!

Rebecca Curcher supported with the purchase of our property - she was helpful, and quick to respond to messages. She did as required, and asked additional questions of the sellers that we hadn't thought of. The team that supported while Rebecca out of office were great too. Found it really helpful that the office is open Saturdays, and that the staff there will witness documents being signed.

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.
