This was my first encounter with Sills & Betteridge since the Bell & Buxton merger, in particular Josh Fenton Hawkes. From the onset, Josh made me feel at ease with the process of probate & his professional approach throughout the execution was exemplary.

Very professional, approachable and efficient firm.

I chose Sills for the sale of my aunt’s property as her executor, based on their good reviews. I was not disappointed, and Sills were very efficient and approachable throughout the process.

Deceased parent estate

From the very first meeting we was treated firstly has a family who lost a loved one and then outlined the processes that would be required. At no point was any pressure or selling placed on us. Once in process the communication was excellent and we was kept informed on progress. The communication was also very clear and made it very easy to understand.

Informative and Professional

Our experience with Nicola was perfect from start to end. She was a total professional as well as being friendly and kind. The information she gave to us was priceless. We feel our time with her was very well spent, and the money paid for the Wills service worth every penny. We would not hesitate in recommending Nicola and Sills & Betteridge for all your needs regarding a Will. Thank you

Fabulous! Richard and Jenny have been a Godsend, they are patient, understanding and above all professional. I have dealt with them over the death of both of my parents and on dealing with the two estates they have been incredible as they explain everything I need to know before time and in a very easy to understand way. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Clever, straightforward and strong

Yasmine is very knowledgeable in her field, and from the very first meeting with her I knew I had made the right decision to instruct her team. I particularly liked how she handled my non-collaborative ex-partner in a firm way. She had the perfect balance of politeness and strength. Yasmine was fast to respond to emails and very thorough in her work. I felt that, if anything went wrong in the negotiations, she'd have my back all the way. I'm very happy in my new divorcee life, and I'm so thankful for the fresh start the team has helped me to make possible.

Excellent service from start to finish

We used Sills & Betteridge for both the purchase of our new home and the legal work for our buy-to-let property. Jade and Chloe were both extremely responsive throughout and made the whole process feel straightforward and well managed. Communication was excellent and everything was explained clearly so we always understood what was happening and what was needed from us. Corrine also dealt with our deeds and made this part of the process straightforward and easy for us. Overall, they made what could have been a stressful process feel very streamlined. We would happily recommend Sills & Betteridge and especially Jade, Chloe and Corrine. Thanks again for all your help

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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I cannot thank Emily Whittley enough for the patience, kindness and guidance she showed me whilst she dealt with my matter, and whilst representing me during hearings. She was supportive and sensitive to my case, and always helped me to make informed decisions throughout proceedings. As an adult with learning difficulties, I was finding proceedings extremely stressful and overwhelming, but Emily was always there to answer any questions I had. I cannot thank Emily enough. I can now move on with my life safely and peacefully because of her. Thank you Emily!
