Execution of a will

Alistair Thomson took over from Katherine Proctor to deal with the execution of my husband's will. What follows applies to both of them. I found Katherine very approachable. I had a meeting with her before my husband died. At this time she explained to me what the process would be. She met again with me and I told her what I wished to do myself and what I wanted her to deal with. She was systematic in her approach, always having the necessary documents ready for me. She was always willing to spend time explaining things I did not understand. There was a seamless transition when Alistair took over . He persisted until all the loose ends were tied up. Both were good at keeping me in the picture about what was happening.

Family Law

Exceptional solicitor

I cannot recommend Natalie Wiles highly enough. She supported me through an incredibly stressful and emotionally draining 5 & 1/2 year divorce involving a very difficult and high-conflict ex-partner, which ultimately went all the way to a final court hearing. Throughout the entire process, Natalie was not only an exceptional solicitor but also a constant source of support. There were many times when she felt more like a therapist, mentor, and trusted friend than just my legal representative. She always took the time to listen, reassure me, and help me navigate the emotional challenges as well as the legal ones. Natalie’s knowledge of family law is outstanding. She is professional, strategic, compassionate, and always had my best interests at heart. Her guidance and expertise helped me achieve an outcome that was far better than I ever expected possible. If you are looking for a solicitor who combines exceptional legal ability with genuine kindness, empathy, and unwavering support, I would wholeheartedly recommend Natalie Wiles.

We had a fantastic service from the Nottingham office when moving house. We had a very protracted conveyancing but Sills acted very promptly and proficiently throughout. We are extremely grateful to the team and we would highly recommend them.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sills & Betteridge Solicitors, and I cannot recommend them highly enough, particularly Hannah Krasinska-Walker From the start, Hannah was incredibly professional yet had a genuinely caring nature that made all the difference. She never made me feel ashamed about my situation and communicated with me every step of the way, ensuring I was always updated on the progress of my case. Her consistent positive support turned what could have been a very difficult time into a manageable experience. If you need a solicitors who combines expertise with compassion, then I highly recommend Hannah and Emily Whittley at Sills & Betteridge.

EXCELLENT SERVICE

From the off this company were both professional and courteous in all that they did, however and whilst conducting this approach, they were still able at the same time to make you feel valued and put you at ease. It would be remiss of me not to single out Rachael McGuire, who dealt with all our needs whilst selling our property. She kept us fully informed throughout. She was happy to see you in person or via calls or emails and nothing was too much trouble for her. When required, she took her time and explained things that we did not fully understand and then followed this up with us. I believe that Rachel went above and beyond, is very committed to her position and is a credit to the company and she fully encompasses what they are about. Thank you Mr and Mrs Palmer

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.

Jessica Cooper from the Boston office helped me with an emergency Non-Molestation order and was extremely helpful, not only did she put me at ease throughout- she constantly checked in to see how I was doing (in my opinion above and beyond her duties). I would highly recommend Jess and thankyou for all you have done and thankyou for sorting everything so quickly. Very professional.
