Sills & Betteridge LLP

Siils and Betteridge is truly appalling. I was charged with a criminal offence, and Katie Scott was to be my DEFENCE solicitor, employed to DEFEND me. No chance of that. I was asked to provide evidence, which included CCTV, to support my case. It was strong evidence, but Katie Scott, and the barrister employed by her, dismissed it all such that I was left with no defence at all. When I insisted that the evidence be used both of them abandoned me minutes before the Trial was due to start, giving the excuse that they were "professionally embarrassed". This, in plain English, means that they did not like being instructed by a paying client, and decided to walk off in a huff. They showed no professionalism whatsoever. Some while late, I posted a critical online review, but this was swiftly removed, probably because of "professional embarrassment". I hope this review will not be removed, but because Sills and Betteridge are easily "professionally embarrassed", it probably will. My advice is not to use Sills and Betteridge if you do not want to be abandoned at Court, or if you expect to be able to ask your solicitor to use evidence. It "professionally embarrasses" the poor dears.

The sale of our late Dad’s funeral ought to have been very straightforward as we were at the end of a short chain. Dawn and Tiffany were friendly, patient and proactive when we needed to push hard to keep a very slow and long drawn out sale moving! Thank you.

Katie provided clear and consistent advice as we navigated the distribution of the proceeds of the sale of our mothers home. Katie was always available for meetings and our phone calls, and promptly addressed any issues.

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 cannot thank Jessica Cooper and the team at Sills & Betteridge Solicitors⁠ enough for their support during an extremely difficult and stressful family court matter. Jessica has been professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely compassionate throughout. She has always taken the time to explain the process clearly, listen to my concerns, and provide practical advice when I needed it most. Family proceedings can be overwhelming, but Jessica’s dedication, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best outcome for my children and me have made a huge difference. I always felt supported and reassured knowing she was representing my interests. I would highly recommend Jessica and Sills & Betteridge to anyone needing family law advice or representation. Their professionalism and client care have been outstanding. Thank you for all your hard work and support.
