My wife and I approached Scott Bailey to complete our wills. We had been with a different law firm in Lymington, who had become quite awful. We did the right thing, as Scott Bailey was excellent. Very professional. A big shout-out to Danielle.

I can’t praise Scott Bailey enough for their support in selling my late mum’s property. Victoria Smalley, Associate Partner, was exceptional — professional, responsive, and always one step ahead. She kept us fully informed, ensured we understood each stage, and handled the complexities of an estate sale with overseas beneficiaries with real care. A difficult situation was made far easier thanks to her dedication. Highly recommended.
The worst service ever! My dad appointed Scott Bailey as executors to his estate. Fairly straightforward, quoted at approx. £5k. 4 years and £32000 later this is still not resolved. Only ever took action when chased. Broke GDPR regulations by sharing my address with all named in the will, then covered each others backs. They got his name wrong and referenced a completely unrelated property and referred to him constantly as a file number. Not at all sympathetic when people are grieving. I appreciate there was a property to sell but this completed early 2025! Keep well clear!!
Dear Debbi, We are sorry that you are unhappy with your experience. We would not normally comment on specific matters on a public forum, however due to the serious nature of your comments, we feel obliged to address certain elements. Where we are appointed as executors, we have legal and professional duties to administer estates properly, which can take longer than expected as more transpires, particularly where property and third parties are involved. Your concerns about service and data protection were formally investigated some time ago through our complaints procedure. Our conclusion was that no GDPR breach occurred and our duties had been met. We are sorry that this matter has been distressing during a period of bereavement. While we do not recognise some of the assertions made, and feel your review is not entirely fair, we do use all feedback to try to constantly improve our client service, including levels of communication with third parties. We cannot comment further on the specifics in a public forum due to confidentiality obligations, but remain willing to engage constructively through appropriate channels. Scott Bailey LLP
Scott Bailey have previously been engaged on personal property transactions but most recently dealing with probate trusts enactment of my mothers will following her passing . They also acted on our behalf as we sold her house. I only have the highest praise for the firm & their employees. They acted with professionalism & empathy at all times. They communicated on a timely basis in language that was easy to understand & made what might have been a quite stressful time into one that was stress free.
Dear Ian, thank you for your kind review. We are really pleased to hear you were so well looked after at such a difficult time. We'll make sure your comments are shared with the team.
Katie Dougan was very supportive and professional helping with a rather complicated intestate situation. She explained what we needed to do in clear terms and helped us get all the paperwork together. I would definitely go back to her again if the occasion arose. Thank you so much Katie.
Thank you for your kind review, Kate! Clear guidance and reassurance are so important in situations like this, and Katie will be delighted to know her help was appreciated.
Ben provided an excellent service from start to finish. He was professional, approachable, and always took the time to explain everything clearly. I felt confident and well supported at every stage, and his expertise made a real difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben to anyone needing a reliable and knowledgeable solicitor.
Thank you for your comments, Steve. We are so pleased to hear you had such a positive experience with Ben. It's always great to read such glowing reviews!

We had some differences of interpretations over a local authority contract, and Scott Bailey reassured us that we were being reasonable, which was very welcome

Thank you so much for looking after us all and Dads estate.
Thank you very much for all your hard work with our wills
James Burford has been our solicitor for many years, and I cannot recommend him and his team highly enough. Most recently, he handled both a house sale and purchase for us and, once again, was incredibly professional, responding quickly to every enquiry. Perhaps more importantly, he was supportive and reassuring throughout the process. Our estate agent commented that he was “the best solicitor” — and I thoroughly agree.
Good people. So pleased I trusted them with my complex issues and will continue to do so with my remaining Legal’s.
Great service from the property conveyancing team lead by Philip Salt and supported by Hannah Petley. Efficient, professional and at all times super responsive, kind and helpful. Highly recommended. Thank you all!
This is the second time that I have had occasion to brief Scott Bailey to deal with the sale of a house. As previously, the efficiency of the service and communication has been first class. I have no hesitation in recommending Scott Bailey to anyone seeking efficient and friendly Solicitors. R G Needell
We have just completed on my mum’s rental house sale in Surrey, using Scott Bailey as the conveyancing solicitors. Victoria Smalley handled this sale, (and is currently also dealing with our own house sale and purchase of another property in Lymington). We highly recommend Victoria and the team at SB. She is meticulous and efficient, and was dogged in her perseverance of a Land Registry issue we encountered. Thank you to Victoria and SB for making mum’s conveyancing process as smooth as possible.
