About this score
This rating is based on verified client feedback and compares how this firm’s value for money is perceived against the national average. In legal services, value for money is not about being the cheapest option, but about whether clients feel the service, expertise, and outcome justified the cost. This comparison helps place client experiences in context when choosing a law firm.

About this score
This rating is based on client feedback and compares how satisfied people were with the result of their legal matter against the national average for similar legal services. While every case is different and outcomes can depend on the law, the facts, and decisions made by courts or tribunals, this comparison is designed to be like for like.
When a firm has a large number of reviews, individual case differences tend to balance out over time. This makes the national average a useful benchmark for understanding how often clients feel the result achieved was fair and appropriate for their situation. Even small differences from the average can therefore reflect a meaningful difference in the overall standard of legal service provided.

Housing & Property
A solicitor that works hard for the client.
I recently dealt with this company and my solicitor was Charles Ling. I had a somewhat urgent need for a quick completion as I was living in temporary accommodation. I wasn’t expecting a great deal from Anita solicitor as to trying to hurry things through for me, but Charles was exceptional in this respect. He was easily contactable and always took my calls. And he worked hard chasing things up and quickly responding to enquiries from the Other party. I was extremely impressed with the service I received when in financial terms I was only a small client. I would not hesitate to recommend this company and particularly Charles Ling

Best solicitor we have worked with
Anna is probably the best solicitor we have ever dealt with. It’s such a breath of fresh air to be able to phone a direct number and your solicitor picks up the phone and deals with you. Second purchase with RFB and very happy. Thank you.

Samantha Eaton was our solicitor during the purchase of our current house. She was professional and acted in our interest when the seller and real estate agents were slow or failed to provide some documents. We would surely recommend others to work with her.

Thank you for your feedback, Andrea. We’re pleased to hear that Samantha provided professional support throughout your house purchase and acted in your best interests when delays arose, helping to keep the process moving.

The compassion and commitment from these solicitors cannot be understated. They were so responsive amd took the time to help us understand the complex process through some really considerable hurdles. Especially Saranya and Melody, cannot thank them enough for their hard work and care.
from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Chris. It means a great deal to us that Saranya and Melody were responsive, took the time to explain things clearly, and provided the care and hard work you needed. If you need any further assistance in the future, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

We had Osborne law for over 2 years. Devorah Ormonde worked for us a much shorter time and charged us over double with no results. Ms. Ormonde completely alienated a highly qualified witness with no plan or empathy with her questioning. All solicitors know the law and process is the same. The aim of this firm is to extract money. Her judgement is poor and steps she suggested incurred costs with no hope of resolution in hindsight. Avoid . There are much better firms around.

She supported me throughout the entire process and made my life much easier by handling everything efficiently and professionally. Her dedication and guidance were invaluable, She was always there to assist me, making a challenging process much more manageable. I highly recommend Ardra for anyone seeking strong legal representation. Thank you once again Ardra Pillai.

We have had the pleasure of having Grace Lowry as our solicitor whilst purchasing our first home. She was recommended by my brother who used her services for the same process- he also was very complimentary about Grace. Grace and her team have been highly responsive throughout the process.We could not fault her at all. Everything has done in such a timely and precise manner. We will be recommending Grace's service to friends and family for sure!

Really helpful in a practical way
Billy helped me with signing a settlement agreement with my former employer. He made things really clear in a helpful and practical way and it was a great help to know I could rely on Billy to be helpful at any stage should further need or questions arise. He was always prompt with calls and never rushed things in any way. I would definitely use Billy again.

The Conveyancer for First-Time Buyers!
Peter was exactly who we needed. As first-time homeowners, the process was daunting and the legal jargon often went over our heads, but Peter explained everything clearly and never made us feel silly for asking questions. Everyone says buying a home is stressful, but we were lucky to have the right people supporting us. Because of that, we felt no stress throughout the entire process, as we trusted that everything was being taken care of properly. Peter kept us regularly updated, gave us clear action points when needed, and always stood up for us when we raised questions with the sellers. Would definitely recommend Peter for any first-time home owners :)

I was very disappointed with the service I received from RFB Legal Solicitors. In particular, my case was handled by Mrs Yasam Assad, whose approach I found to be rude and unprofessional. I also felt that my relatively straightforward case was not managed competently. Based on my experience, I would not recommend their services.
from Ronald Fletcher Baker LLP
Dear Mousa. I'm sorry to hear that you feel you had a negative experience with the firm. If you'd like to discuss this further, please contact us directly.

Very poor experience with this firm as a whole. There were repeated mistakes, including accounting and calculation errors, delays, and serious communication issues. The overall handling of my case caused a lot of unnecessary stress. Be aware of unexpected or unclear costs.

Dear N Test, We are sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We take concerns regarding communication, accuracy and costs very seriously, and your comments will be reviewed internally.

Needed some statutory declarations witnessed at very short notice. Tried multiple firms in the area. RFB delivered and it made the difference with completing on 4 leases in this financial year, huge impact for the NHS. Their service made that possible. Very grateful. professional and accommodating. Highly recommend.

Thank you for your fantastic review, Dawn. We are proud to have played a part in such a significant result, especially knowing the positive impact this has for the NHS. In the legal world, timing is often everything. We are glad our team could be accommodating at short notice to ensure those leases were completed within the financial year.
