Emily Reed is simply outstanding!

Moving or buying a property is one of the most stressful things you can do! But it didn’t feel like it as Emily made the process appear seamless and dealt with everything so professionally and really seemed to care!

The process was made easier with patient clarification of any points about which I was uncertain and I was therefore more reassured when finalising the text.

I received a great service throughout the process of transferring a property to my husband. Zara was professional, informative and supportive from introduction to closure of completion. I'd also say the fees were more than fair. I would be more than happy to recommend both Zara and Stephen Rimmer.

Stephen Rimmer Solicitors acted for us in selling and buying houses. Our partner was thorough & efficient and his communication by email was friendly and clear. Our staff member contacted us immediately after buying informing us of some interest we were due after holding our house selling money for two weeks - very welcomed and efficient!

Highly recommend

We were selling a property and used Stephen Rimmer as our solicitors. The experience was excellent! We cannot recommend them highly enough. Joseph and Ryan responded almost instantly to emails and enabled the sale to go through as quickly as possible. They were really easy to communicate with and very helpful and polite. We will definitely be using this company again. Highly recommend!

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

24/06/2026

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.
