    Good Local Solicitors

    We have had to use the services of Foort Tayler. Wills, Powers of attorney and setting up a trust. All done efficiently and in a timely manor involving two solicitors in the practice. Both were pleasant to deal with, knowledgeable and communicated very well between themselves and us. Clear instructions and advice were given to us at every stage and all questions no matter how trivial that we asked were answered promptly and competently. Excellent service from initially Bethany Oven and in turn followed up by Claire Buttress

    Firstly I visited the company within working hours and it was shut. I then phoned the company and was told all Solicitors are working from home, and they are only helping existing clients. Meaning I wasn't welcome as a new customer. Very unhelpful and unprofessional.

      Alison my partner had previously used Katie when selling her former property and highly recommended that we use her again. From start to finish, Katie was professional, proactive, friendly, and kept communication excellent throughout the entire process. We experienced a number of delays and hold-ups along the way, but Katie was always honest, transparent, and worked tirelessly to chase things up on our behalf. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble, and she consistently kept us informed of any developments. One thing we particularly appreciated was how responsive Katie was. She always replied to our emails promptly, which gave us reassurance and confidence during what can be a very stressful process. We are incredibly grateful for all of Katie's hard work and support and would not hesitate to recommend her to any of our family and friends. Thank you, Katie!
