I would recommend Emma everytime to everyone. To list a few incredible strengths you will receive if you find yourself getting help from Emma are perfect communication, respectful, polite, simplifies legal jargon, professional, ruthless if requested, sound and timely advice. Emma was also able to calm my nerves in what is always going to be a stressful situation with her approachable thorough valuation and knowledge. Emma is not a keyboard warrior. She takes the time to explain every step and in one instance actually corrected the opposing solicitor, so rest assured if you have the luxury of Emma’s assistance. As you can tell I’m a happy customer!. Richard Fox

Emma was great help through my difficult case which had a lot of complications caused by third parties. She was excellent with her advice and support and on point with the work she put in behind the scenes. Got the results I wanted in the end. So Thankyou for your help.

Julie is a caring, dedicated compassionate solicitor who puts her clients welfare first.
She is approachable and really listens to what her client has to say. Everything is set out in easily understandable terms, communication skills are excellent and work is carried out extremely quickly, giving peace of mind and helps build a very good trusting relationship. I certainly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Julie and would certainly work with her again.

Nishi may seem communicative — replying to emails and offering updates — but don’t be fooled. Over the course of nearly five months, what should’ve been a straightforward process was dragged out endlessly due to her complete lack of urgency and poor grasp of key details.
Most damning of all, she missed the SDLT (Stamp Duty Land Tax) deadline, which resulted in a financial penalty — an entirely avoidable mistake. This happened because she only flagged the existence of a rent charge halfway through the process, despite it being clearly disclosed from the outset. It was a basic oversight with real consequences.
Throughout, I was repeatedly told things were progressing, but in truth, nothing was being done properly. I felt misled, frustrated, and ultimately out of pocket — all due to her negligence.
If you value competence, accountability, or even just someone who can meet deadlines, look elsewhere. This was an exhausting and costly experience I wouldn’t wish on anyone.

Thank you, Rebecca, for the excellent service which you gave us throughout the various steps needed to set up Lasting Powers of Attorney. Each stage was fully explained to us and any questions we had were answered with care and clarity. Rebecca was always very approachable and we felt very effectively guided through all the necessary steps.

We used Suzi Cotterill at Nelsons Solicitors to deal with the sale of our property. The sale was very protracted and the buyers and their solicitors were a nightmare throughout the process. Suzi was great, she responded to our calls and emails immediately, she was always on top of where we were with things and made a very difficult sale much easier than it could have been. I would definitely recommend Suzi to anyone wanting a Solicitor who cares and is on top of everything.

Amanda Voakes helped me prepare my Will and Lasting Powers of Attorney for my husband and I. She was very helpful, professional and friendly on our zoom meetings and went through every aspect in great detail for us. She was extremely efficient and made all the instructions very clear for us and was available to answer any queries. I would have no hesitation in recommending her.
