Outstanding support from start to finish!

I can’t recommend Billy highly enough. He handled my settlement agreement following my redundancy and went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Billy was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. He responded to emails promptly, kept me updated every step of the way, and took the time to explain everything clearly, making what could have been a very stressful process much easier. I genuinely felt that Billy had my best interests at heart. Nothing was too much trouble, and his attention to detail and support gave me real confidence during a difficult time. I couldn’t have asked for better support throughout the process. Thank you again, Billy.

Excellent experience with Billy

Billy was advising me on a matter related to UK employment law. He was efficient, kind, and excellent at explaining complex legal language of my contract. Apart from being a great lawyer, he was an absolute pleasure to work with, answering all of my questions with patience and understanding. I couldn't recommend him more.

Really helpful in a practical way

Billy helped me with signing a settlement agreement with my former employer. He made things really clear in a helpful and practical way and it was a great help to know I could rely on Billy to be helpful at any stage should further need or questions arise. He was always prompt with calls and never rushed things in any way. I would definitely use Billy again.

A great support

I reached out to Ronald Fletcher LLP after my company approached me with a settlement agreement. I had reached out to some others firms in the area, however, Billy and the team were incredibly quick to respond and to begin supporting me and prioritised my matter as I did not have long to align on paperwork with my employer and we were able to get things signed in a matter of days. I would highly recommend their services.

Gerard was exceptional at representing me from start to finish. He put me completely at ease with his superb knowledge of the area of law and the processes that would follow. He kept me updated at every step of the way and ensured that all decisions were put in my hands with no pressure only good and sound advice. I would recommend Gerard to anyone in my situation of finding themselves faced with a shock redundancy, he will do his best for every individual case.

Excellent support on a complex leasehold sale

Thomas handled the sale of my leasehold flat in a high-rise building, which involved Building Safety Act requirements, a management pack, landlord and managing agent requirements, and a Licence to Assign. He was knowledgeable, pragmatic and clear on the issues that mattered, and dealt well with the various complications that came up during the transaction. Most importantly, he kept the legal side moving and got the sale successfully through to completion. I felt the transaction was in safe hands and would happily recommend Thomas.

Calm in a sea of madness

With a mildly unusual chain in our house sal and with a buyers legal team using radio silence as means of communication. Charles has been informative available and pragmatic in his handling of the transaction. His reputation amongst the various vendors we had to deal with is outstanding with comments like ‘he is always available’, ‘knows the answers when we call’ and ‘very pleasant and personable a pleasure to deal with’. All in all he has been able to dial down the stress of house buying to a minimum!

Charles was a huge help throughout this process and i am truly grateful. He was speedy and efficient, whilst being informative as there was no question in this process i could not ask. We had time restrictions and without Charles’s dedication we would have never got the sale over the line in time, I will be happy to recommend his services to anyone any time.

Excellent and stress-free will writing

I went to Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP for my will writing and estate planning. Joseph was incredibly helpful, answered all of my questions clearly, and explained everything perfectly. He turned what could have been an otherwise stressful experience into a very simple and swift process, drafting an excellent, high-quality will. I am very grateful for his guidance and the peace of mind he provided, and I highly recommend him and Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP.

Mark Toland and Suzanne Nasery were both Outstanding. Re-mortgaging two Commercial HMO properties with Castle Trust but able to turn it around from instruction to completion in only 2 weeks was Unbelievable. Direct and fluid conversation and communication puts Mark and Suzanne above the rest. Our experience was fantastic and will spur us on to re-invest and re-mortgage further. If your are re-mortgaging HMO and Commercial and drawing down on equity Mark and Suzanne will deliver where we have had numerous experiences in the past where panel Solicitors are woeful and will not get into dialogue and just keyboard warriors which in Business really does not assure you as an Investor and then feel just a number. RFB and Mark and Suzanne smashed it where other fail.

from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP

Thank you so much for the exceptional feedback, Graham! Turning around a double commercial HMO re-mortgage in just two weeks is an incredible result, and we’re thrilled that Mark and Suzanne’s proactive, direct communication made such a difference to your experience. We look forward to working with you again on your future investments.

Working with Ronald Fletcher Baker, and particularly Esin Taze, as a first-time homebuyer was fantastic. I found them to be thorough, efficient, clear and responsive from start to finish - despite having to deal with some of my offers falling through for various reasons. I couldn't recommend Esin / this firm enough for anyone wanting help on their home buying project.

from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP

Huge congratulations on your new home, Marc! Thank you so much for your recommendation, and all the very best as you settle into your new place!

Samantha Eaton was our solicitor during the purchase of our current house. She was professional and acted in our interest when the seller and real estate agents were slow or failed to provide some documents. We would surely recommend others to work with her.

I was very disappointed with the service I received from RFB Legal Solicitors. In particular, my case was handled by Mrs Yasam Assad, whose approach I found to be rude and unprofessional. I also felt that my relatively straightforward case was not managed competently. Based on my experience, I would not recommend their services.

Dear Mousa. I'm sorry to hear that you feel you had a negative experience with the firm. If you'd like to discuss this further, please contact us directly.
