Clients say

The firm is experienced in conveyancing, family law, wills and probate, and Help to Buy matters. Clients praise professionalism, efficiency, clear explanations, thoroughness and availability, with approachable, sympathetic advisers who provide regular updates and reassurance. However, several clients report poor quality control and diligence in conveyancing (errors in contracts and Help to Buy redemptions), reactive communication, failure to respond to emails, and a reluctance to take ownership—causing stress, delays and extra costs. Overall feedback mixes strong individual solicitor praise with frustrations about inconsistent standards and communication failures.

Estate Planning made Simple

We have worked with Danielle at Watson Ramsbottom for several years, initially for the preparation of our wills and more recently to update them as our circumstances changed. Throughout, the service has been consistently professional, clear, and reassuring. Danielle took the time to understand our needs, explained everything in a straightforward way, and handled the process efficiently and thoroughly. The updates were managed smoothly, giving us complete confidence that everything was done correctly and with care. We feel a real sense of peace of mind knowing our affairs are properly in order and would not hesitate to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful, and professional legal support.

Really professional and friendly service

This is our second time using WR solicitors for conveyancing, and all through the very stressful process, they were patient and understanding when things were very tense at times! Deborah, Harriet and Julie, couldn’t do enough to help, and the communication was amazing, always available to take a call which is unusual from other people’s experience. I would highly recommend Watson Ramsbottom.

Danielle Jarvie - Wills and Declaration of Trust Recommendation

Danielle Jarvie provided an excellent service when handling our Wills and a Declaration of Trust under slightly unusual circumstances. She was responsive, knowledgeable, personable and friendly. I strongly recommend Danielle and Watson Ramsbottom Solicitors and I would not hesitate in using Danielle again in the future.

Elena Hathaway - Licensed conveyancer

Elena was brilliant. So efficient and trustworthy. She was always happy to answer questions and queries, with a quick response too. I would recommend her and this company to anyone, so friendly - Thank you so much!

Poor Communication & Poor Quality Checks

Recommended by Anwyl Homes…received documentation & contracts with errors., had not been quality checked for mistakes by solicitor, bad practice towards communication, fail to respond to emails or explain details…threatened to charge for phone contact! not in our best interest, but rather the New Build Developer’s…compared to other conveyancers hired by myself, Watson Ramsbottom offered little support…will never use again!

Family Law

Exceptional Service

Thankfully we found Carrie Hyde when we needed her most! Carrie was able to help and advise us during an exceptionally stressful time, cumulating in us taking action in the family courts and getting the protection we needed going forwards. Carrie was professional, respectful and sympathetic. Carrie understood our case and worked really hard to get the best outcome for us. Carrie was available to either meet with us or respond to emails whenever we needed her to.

Avoid

A long and drawn out process culminating in an unacceptable and unprofessional handling of a Help to Buy redemption error, resulting in unnecessary and distressing pressure from the Conveyancer Despite having personally notified the Conveyancing Executive of an error in the Help to Buy redemption figure the day before completion; which they had not spotted, we were wrongly assured to complete using the incorrect disposal figure. The issue was known in advance and should have been resolved prior to completion. Instead, it has been raised retrospectively 2 months later, and I have been subjected to pressure to cover the shortfall caused by this error. This failure has led to unnecessary stress, delayed registrations, and the risk of knock-on impact to onward transactions. Communication has been reactive rather than proactive, with responsibility being pushed back onto the me as the client rather than owned by those responsible for progressing the transaction. A disappointing lack of diligence and accountability by the legal professionals we paid to advise and protect us during the sale of our property. I would not recommend.
