    Brilliant solicitor and excellent team

    Jack and his team were excellent. The vendors solicitors were a nightmare - didn’t respond to questions and didn’t understand the complexities of selling a house in Sovereign Harbour. They dragged things out 2 months longer than needed. Even on completion day Jack couldn’t get an answer from them!! But all the team persevered and eventually got this over the line. Without them I would have walked away from this purchase long ago. Can’t praise the team enough - they kept things moving and helped to keep me sane.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When selling my flat in London from Germany, a dear friend recommended Stephan Rimmer as my solicitor. I can honestly say that I was not disappointed! From the very beginning, I felt incredibly well looked after. Emily and I shared a similar sense of humour, which made the whole process even more enjoyable. Whenever I got stuck with the English legal terminology or translations, Emily took the time to explain everything to me clearly and in detail, making sure I fully understood what was happening. Thank you so much, Emily, for your tireless help, patience and support throughout the entire process. It was an absolute pleasure working with you, and I truly appreciated the excellent partnership. I would happily recommend Stephan Rimmer and Emily to anyone looking for professional, supportive and genuinely personal legal assistance in the UK. 5 stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Thank you so much for such a wonderful review and for choosing Stephen Rimmer to help with the sale of your London flat. It’s particularly lovely to hear how Emily made the process easier for you while you were based in Germany, taking the time to explain the legal terminology clearly and keeping things personal and enjoyable along the way. We’ll make sure your kind words are passed on to her – we know they’ll mean a great deal. Thank you again for your recommendation and for placing your trust in us. It was a pleasure to help, and we wish you all the very best for the future.

    I recently used Stephen Rimmer solicitor for the conveyancing of my house, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service provided. From start to finish, the process was handled with professionalism, efficiency, and clear communication. They kept me informed at every stage, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and were always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. What can often be a stressful experience was made much smoother thanks to their attention to detail and proactive approach. I particularly appreciate Roy Bridge and Daisy Dyer for their dedication to keeping things moving and ensuring deadlines were met without unnecessary delays. Their expertise and support gave me real confidence throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable conveyancing solicitor.

    Thank you Aby 😊

      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!
