My family and I have used Brethertons on numerous occasions for both conveyancing and Wills. They have always provided excellent, professional service in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend them.
I would like to thank Sarah Horton and her team handling our Estate so professionally. As it was the second time to use Brethertons,I was received with no judgement, listened to and the rest of the family evolved. Explanations were done professionally and all instructions delt with to satisfaction. The team over and above their call of duty to help, referred us to other companies on areas you didn't cover, thank you. Family left in good relations as was asked due to the way the Estate was handed, thank you, won't hesitate to recommend you . Lydia M Lewis.
We were very pleased with Josh�s help on preparing our wills and LPAs. He was very professional and knowledgable and explained everything in a manner which was easy to understand. Would highly recommend Josh and Brethertons cannot fault the service they provide.
My request for an appointment was efficient, I was given an appointment with Lindsey within a week, within the next week I received a draft copy, I was given another appointment within a week and it was all concluded within a month. I felt confident that everything was covered and will be well executed in the future.
The process or reviewing Wills and adding lasting Powers of Attorney was done in an informative and speedy manner. Sarah Horton is clearly an expert in her subject matter and most importantly she never at any stage pushed us. She always reviewed what documentation already existed, listened carefully to what WE wanted and then offered suggestions and solutions. This was extremely important to us - giving us space to consider, reflect and decide on next steps. Of the greatest importance was this: We had confidence in Sarah, and that our business was in the best of hands. We were quick to establish a rapport and that made it easier to proceed. Our thanks are extended to her - because it is not just about money. We can now relax going forward knowing that our important business has been attended to.
This firm is excellent. We have had experience of Brethertons during bereavement as the firm handled our late Aunt’s estate; and now with the Conveyancing team for our recent house purchase. Daniel in Conveyancing is thoughtful, professional, empathic when things don’t go according to plan and just excellent really. He also makes himself available - none of that ringing round trying to get hold of your solicitor. Very responsive and deals with matters quickly. I have so much confidence in Brethertons and can thoroughly recommend Daniel Cridge, Emma Morris and Sarah Spiby in the Conveyancing department. Also Amber Morris who dealt with our late Aunt’s estate. Five stars!
I had the misfortune of using Brethertons following the death of my mother, and have been absolutely appalled by the poor communication from my solicitor which had a direct impact on progress being significantly slow and frustrating during this already difficult period. I had to constantly chase my solicitor both over the phone and email, even needing to call through to the main reception and complain about my emails going unanswered for over a month before he would get back to me. My assigned solicitor didn't chase the other parties involved when he said he would, directly leading to delays on the important matter. You should be able to trust they'll do what they say without babysitting them. He was also promoted to lawyer during this time, which is absolutely astounding to me based on his work on my account. Just to illustrate this further, I received an email yesterday (13th July) from my solicitor to close up the account, something he told me he was going to do on the 1st of April! Not surprised but disappointed. I'm sure some services are fine, but avoid wills and probate.

My brother and me had experienced appalling service from my deceased parents' solicitors after their death. My brother had instructed Brethertons for his own Will and recommended that we use them to provide legal services for the management of my parents' estate. Laura Stewart quickly clarified our position regarding my parents' Trust Will, which wasn't entirely straightforward, and we were able to instruct her immediately with a clear understanding of our position (in stark contrast to the lack of any useful advice received from my parents' solicitor). At all times Laura acted promptly, with great clarity of purpose and really clear lines of communication. I would not hesitate to recommend Brethertons LLP for Trust and Will legal services.
I have to share a wonderful experience I have had with Brethertons Solicitors during the last week. After a couple of calls to Local Solicitors in the Banbury area re LPA's with no one showing any interest at all. I got through to Brethertons. I spoke to a young Iady by the name of Sameera, who not only made sure she found out what I was looking for, she followed up my call with an email setting out the fees for this service and also a pamphlet that explained all about LPA's. She also arranged to call me back this week and see if I understood everything and if I was ready to proceed. Wonderful service . Thank you Sameera my faith in humanity is restored.

My experience with Dominic W. was disappointing. Written work contained avoidable errors that I had to correct, and at one point another person had to check his work, which I paid for again. After my finance form was disclosed, discussions felt increasingly focused on fees, and at times he seemed overly friendly with the opposing solicitor. Money was requested frequently, and without a clear cost breakdown I couldn’t understand what work was being done. Despite spending a significant amount, my matter was left unfinished, and I had to resolve issues myself at critical moments, including hours before a hearing. The complaints process did not feel supportive, and I did not feel taken seriously. I ultimately reported the issue to the Legal Ombudsman. Based on my experience, I would not return to this company and would prefer to manage matters independently. I would also advise others to double‑check itemised bills carefully.

During the process I found my allocated solicitor Lottie Dunkley very helpful in all arears. She kept me informed of all stages and was always ready help when I called to speak to her, no matter how small the enquiry was. I was very happy with the service during a difficult time
When we dealt with you we found you were very efficient, and helpful.
Excellent communication throughout sale/purchase and went above and beyond when we had a issue moving day. The service provided was excellent
The solicitor I had was very good but you are very very expensive especially this day and age when everything is so high. I really think you need to bring your prices down a little bit more for wheels because people just can�t afford it and that�s why they go elsewhere to people that are a bit more cheaper, thank you.
Had an appointment yesterday with Daniel Cridge. He was very helpful, totally put me at ease and explained everything thoroughly. Highly recommend!
good and efficient service very professional
Lottie and Julia are absolute stars the keep you updated regularly and help you with any queries no matter how small If you are moving house they are definitely the go to people
