Excellent service provided

I was selling a property as the Executor of a Will. Thomas and Emma both understood what I needed and were very professional in handling all my enquiries and those of the buyer's Solicitor. They were very responsive and made the process easy for me by involving their local office to gather/certify documents. Thank you for making the whole thing very simple and stress free.

So grateful to have found Team Tracy!

The whole of Team Tracy in Lincoln were just fabulous! A special thank you to Karla who without her, I think we would have genuinely lost our marbles but she handled the constant delays, lack of communication and misinformation by other solicitors. I would highly recommend if you are looking for an honest, proactive and organised solicitor!

Thank you

A big thank you to the team at Sills & Betteridge who look after the sale of my property. Especially Thomas McConachie for keeping me updated, always professional but very friendly and easy to talk to. My estate agent commented on how he had been kept in the loop at all times and said he was very impressed.

We recently instructed Sills & Betteridge to act as our conveyancers for the purchase of our first home, after hearing positive feedback from relatives who had used their services.

We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Alice Solomon and her assistant, Charlie Mahon. They were both absolutely brilliant and made the house-buying process as simple and straightforward as possible for us.

Alice and Charlie were incredibly responsive to our queries, kept us regularly updated, and clearly explained each step of process.

We were working to a tight deadline, and instructing Sills and Betteridge enabled us to meet it.

We truly can’t recommend them highly enough and will definitely be encouraging friends and family to use their services in the future.
