Very professional

We had our wills drafted and prepared by Fiona McSmailes. Fiona offered us alot of support and offered professional advice in redrafting our wills as our original ones were produced in 2015. At all times Fiona was professional, knowledgeable and everything was conducted within very good timeframes. I would highly recommend Fiona.

Excellent service. Me and my late husband had our wills made by sills and betteridge solicitors, and Lesley Warren has been brilliant. She’s pleasant to talk to, giving us good advice and so thorough with her job. She’s made sure that we are happy with everything. We have been with her for few years and I couldn’t been happier with the service she gave us. Very satisfied with her service.

Fabulous! Richard and Jenny have been a Godsend, they are patient, understanding and above all professional. I have dealt with them over the death of both of my parents and on dealing with the two estates they have been incredible as they explain everything I need to know before time and in a very easy to understand way. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Great service!

Worked with Jessica from the Scunthorpe branch over a period of 18-20 months on several property purchases (two of which fell through for various reasons). We got the third property over the line today and I am thrilled. The experience working with Jessica has been great: professional, tolerant my sometimes excessive questioning, excellent communication, while thoroughly reviewing of all documentation while explaining risks to me so I was aware of issues as they arose, meaning the right decisions were made. It has been tricky to land the right property (outside of both our control) it became comforting to be represented by the same person with continuity throughout. Jessica even went out her way to ensure some of my searches were discounted by the search provider when one of my purchase attempts fell apart which was unexpected and a nice surprise. I will definitely use Sills & Betteridge again in the future if I need further representation. Thanks so much Jessica!

Outstanding solicitor

I cannot thank Dominic Lee enough for all the support, dedication and hard work he has given me throughout my case. Dominic has gone far beyond what I could have expected from a solicitor. He has always taken the time to listen to my concerns, explain everything clearly and guide me through each step of the legal process with patience and professionalism. What has meant the most to me is that Dominic has consistently made me feel supported during what has been an extremely stressful and difficult situation. Even when he was not working, he still took the time to keep me updated and make sure I was aware of important developments. His commitment and dedication have been exceptional. Dominic is extremely professional, knowledgeable, approachable and compassionate. I have always felt that he genuinely cared about helping me and protecting my child’s best interests. I am incredibly grateful and thankful for everything Dominic has done for me. would highly recommend Dominic Lee to anyone looking for a solicitor who truly goes above and beyond for their clients. Your faithfully Joana D

Lawyer of the year

Deborah Linford has been our family lawyer for many years. She has always been proficient and an expert in her field. I admire her straight forwardness and the ability to connect with her clients. Deborah is very unique and has not just provided an excellent service but has done it with such compassion and understanding. She has exceeded our expectations and I wish her all the success she deserves.

I cannot recommend this team of solicitors highly enough. Isabel Jacques, Luvena Contreras, and Tilly Maclean have been absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. They are incredibly supportive, approachable, and always took the time to answer my questions and keep me updated. Their communication is excellent, and they work so quickly and efficiently, making everything feel much less stressful. What really stood out was how kind and genuine they are. They have a great sense of humour, which helped put me at ease during what could have been a difficult time. Their professionalism, combined with their friendly and caring nature, made a huge difference. Thank you, Isabel, Luvena, and Tilly, for all your hard work, dedication, and outstanding support. I truly appreciate everything you've done and wouldn't hesitate to recommend your services to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and highly efficient team.

I was supported to the highest level of professionalism and felt extremely confident of the outcome under the guidance of Sophie, Hannah and Victoria. I was made to feel safe, truly protected and most importantly believed. My case was resolved promptly and transparently with communication through every step. I would recommend Sills and Betteridge to anyone who needs legal advice or representation. I have had my faith restored in the legal system and I can’t thank them enough.
