Efficient service at a good price

We used to Sills & Betteridge LLP to sell a house in Lincoln in what was turned out to be quite a fiddly process in a chain but found the service very efficient and to the price submitted on the quote

Brilliant service!

I’ve recently sold and purchased a house and was lucky enough to have Alice and Charlie dealing with my case. From the outset to completion, everything was great and I couldn’t have asked for more! Both Charlie and Alice were incredibly professional, helpful and kind. I had a really positive experience and am very grateful!

Very poor all round

The solicitors were awful one quit the company they told me I had a 50 percent chance to be guilty of a crime I never even got involved in or took any part in. I then called to ask if my case was going ahead he was very rude with the reply, the barrister was great but again the only contact was on the day of the trial. I wouldn’t go back to these if I ever needed to but hopefully I’m not involved in anything like this in my life again.

They get the job done. Could have been better communication. Had to rely on our estate agents for all progress updates.

I would like to thank charlie and alice for all the support and advice they have given me during the last few months. You have both been amazing. I would definitely recommend your selves to anyone.
At times my anxiety gets the better of me. But speaking or emailing one of these lovely ladies always helps.
I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a solicitor.
Thank you for everything
