Couldn’t ask for more from our conveyancers!

We were honestly dreading moving house after hearing so many horror stories about conveyancers, but our experience was completely the opposite. Talisa and Rachel were absolutely fantastic from start to finish and went above and beyond for us throughout the entire process. Our sale and purchase started in October 2025 and finally completed in July 2026, so it was a long and, at times, incredibly complicated process. There were a number of issues along the way, particularly with our onward purchase, but Talisa and Rachel were always on hand, incredibly proactive and genuinely went the extra mile to help us get everything over the line (even doing the job of our sellers conveyancers from time to time - who were useless!) They were professional, responsive and reassuring throughout, and most importantly, made us feel like they genuinely cared about getting the best possible outcome for us. Even when things became particularly stressful, we always felt that we were in safe hands. We have already recommended Talisa and Rachel to everyone we know and would 100% use them again in the future. We genuinely couldn’t be more grateful for everything they did to help us finally get into our new home. Thank you so much, Talisa and Rachel, for everything! Holly & Lewis

Excellent Conveyancing Service – Highly Recommended

I would highly recommend Sills & Betteridge for conveyancing. They were very knowledgeable, professional and efficient throughout the purchase of my house in Gainsborough. Their local knowledge of the area was an added bonus, and I felt confident that everything was being handled in a thorough and professional manner. I would happily recommend their conveyancing services to friends and family.

The best conveyancing team - highly recommend the team and the firm

Could not recommend the team highly enough. Kept me updated and I never needed to chase. The matter went through smoothly from start to finish. Ed, Charlotte and Jo were a delight to deal with. I would definitely recommend that anyone needing a conveyancing matter dealt with, should use Sills & Betteridge. The team were professional but very friendly. They made the whole process stress free and easy. 10/10 across the board. Excellent firm.

I have dealt with Sills & Betteridge Lincoln with conveyancing 3 times now and been both on the selling and buying end, and have to say their knowledge, efficiency, attention to detail and effectiveness are second to none. Even when dealing with difference circumstances (eg. putting property into a trust), they surpassed 2 other reputable solicitors contacted for quotes in their understanding (and the only ones to actually give us correct information!) Super quick to answer any emails, always same day (even out of hours) and always answer the phone and their wise advice has undoubtedly saved us a lot of money over the years. Centrally located office with plenty of customer parking which is also appreciated. Special shout out to Ellie Kilshaw and Ed Sharpe who have consistently gone above and beyond to fight our corner and deliver positive outcomes every time. Thank you both so much for all your help!

I was a little apprehensive when appointing a new solicitor for the purchase of our new home, but had no reason to worry. Joanne and her assistant Angela were absolutely brilliant from the moment go. They knew we wanted a quick completion and did everything in their power to do this for us without compromising on their duty to us. They were professional, helpful and friendly at the same time, we cannot thank them enough. I would not hesitate in recommending them.

We recently completed our house purchase with the support of Kirsty (Conveyancing Solicitor) and Kim (Conveyancing Assistant) at Sills & Betteridge, and we are extremely pleased with the service we received.Despite some early challenges and the stress that naturally comes with buying a home, Kirsty and Kim have genuinely gone above and beyond for us. They worked collaboratively throughout the entire process, kept our case a priority, and chased updates wherever possible.As long‑distance clients, communication was especially important to us, and they were consistently prompt, professional, and supportive — whether by email or telephone. Their reassurance and commitment made a stressful mortgage process much easier to manage.We are very grateful for their hard work, dedication, and high‑level professionalism. We would happily recommend them to others.

I recently used Sills & Betteridge Sleaford for my remortgage and equity transfer and I was very impressed with the service throughout. The entire process was completed in just 7 weeks, which exceeded our expectations. Communication was clear and prompt at every stage, and everything was handled efficiently and professionally. I always felt informed and confident that matters were progressing smoothly. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient conveyancing solicitor. Thank you Sue and Yvonne for all your support and your understanding with my additional access needs. As someone on the spectrum who needs to understand processes in more detail than most would, you were kind, patient and supportive.

My saviors

Jill and Peter at Sills and Betteridge were amazing from start to finish. Peter made me feel like I wasn't alone and gave me the courage to act upon financial and marital issues. Jill eventually took over my case and for a year her kindness and compassion really helped me through that tough time. I felt like she became a friend who really understood my case and if she could help me in anyway she would. She went above and Beyond. I would highly recommend her as a solicitor as well as all of the team at Sills and Betteridge.

Review of Divorce Proceedings

I cannot recommend Sandra enough for her professional support and guidance through a complex and difficult divorce. She was always friendly and approachable and was accurate with her estimations of timescales and costs and the likely outcomes from my case. Sandra was always available to discuss the next steps and to explain the process clearly so I understood exactly what was happening, ultimately securing a successful outcome to my case.

I cannot recommend Sills & Betteridge Solicitors highly enough. I came to the firm with an incredibly complex, difficult and stressful court case. From my very first meeting with Emily Whittley, I felt that I was in safe and capable hands. Emily was exceptionally thorough, strategically sharp and highly professional throughout the entire legal process. She kept me informed, supported and reassured, even when things became particularly challenging. Emily went above and beyond to ensure I had the right support around me throughout the ongoing case, including bringing in Hannah Krasinska-Walker, who provided invaluable additional courtroom support. Hannah played a hugely important role in my case and did so much to support me throughout an extremely difficult and intimidating process. Her preparation, professionalism, knowledge and presence in court gave me an enormous amount of confidence when I needed it most. Having both Emily and Hannah working together on my behalf made a huge difference. They complemented each other exceptionally well, and I always felt that I had a strong, dedicated team behind me. The involvement of an IDVA called Vicky also provided an important layer of additional support, and I am incredibly grateful that Emily made sure I had access to the wider support I needed. Emily and Hannah, from Sills & Betteridge, made an excellent team and together demonstrated outstanding legal knowledge and an impressive ability to navigate unexpected challenges during a highly contentious and difficult court matter. Their attention to detail, dedication and preparation were exceptional, and I always felt that I had two incredibly capable and committed people fighting my corner. The entire team showed genuine care, professionalism and commitment throughout. I always felt listened to, supported and kept informed, and I am incredibly grateful for everything Emily and Hannah did for me. Their support made an enormous difference during what was an extremely difficult and stressful time. Thanks to their dedication, hard work and representation, I achieved a positive outcome and, most importantly, I am now safe. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sills & Betteridge, Emily Whittley and Hannah Krasinska-Walker to anyone facing a complex or stressful legal matter. I will always be incredibly grateful to Emily and Hannah for the support, reassurance and dedication they showed me throughout my case. Thank you both for everything you did for me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
