We received the same excellent, efficient service when we made our Lasting Powers of Attorney as we did when we made our Wills. We would recommend Hugh and his team to everyone.

LPAs and Advance Decision

I have at last drawn up my LPAs and Advance Decision thanks to Sarah's patience and understanding, as well as expertise. I couldn't have done it without her. I first considered it 20 years ago but couldn't think of a way forward but Sarah helped me through the hoops. A great weight off my mind knowing my affairs are in very capable hands. Money well spent!

Divorce

Wow, Amanda has made this so simple, I cannot recommend Amanda enough. Well done Amanda. Unfortunately I did place the sale of my 30 year family home with these solicitors and I quickly removes it because I did not connect with Mercedes. What a shame as I wanted Risdons to deal with everything. Never mind, the divorce is going through seamlessly. Thank you Amanda 😊

Set up of LPA

We only dealt with the receptionist(s) and our Solicitor Lindsey Challinor (who has now moved away), but even staff who were passing by whilst we waited for our appointment made sure we were being looked after.

Contacted to get an idea of their costs for dealing with my divorce, seemed helpful and friendly so tried to instruct them. Took them around 2 weeks to send formal costs estimate and had to chase them for it several times. Meanwhile, they drafted one e mail to my ex husband which was basically a rushed cut and paste job using text from my e mail to them, very unimpressive. Decided to leave it there and instruct another firm only to get a letter from Risdon Hosegood over a year later threatening to take action over their bill - which I'd never received and which they'd omitted to enclose with that letter - shoddy work again. Would never use - my divorce was dealt with very efficiently and cost effectively by another local firm.

Friendly, professional, efficient service with prompt communications

Kate and Teresa responded to our queries relating to the sale of a property promptly and professionally. It was easy to communicate with them and they were generally available when we needed to speak to them - something I consider to be really important. We had a very good experience with them overall and would not hesitate to recommend. They provided a great, efficient service.

I am not surprised at the other fantastic reviews here…We have very recently used Anri in our conveyancing process when selling and purchasing our new home, which was not without hiccups! Anri and the team at Risdon’s were exceptional with their responsiveness and guidance, far exceeding our experiences previously. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble and to have a ‘human’ experience was wonderful. We also dealt with Sam B at the Taunton office who was very friendly and helpful, putting my mind at great ease. Thank you all, so much! ☺️

We had a fantastic experience with Michelle, who handled the sale of our property. She was incredibly professional, helpful and approachable throughout the whole process. One of the things we appreciated most was how proactive Michelle was - we never felt like we needed to chase her for updates or progress, as she was always one step ahead and kept everything moving. She was extremely organised, responsive and on top of everything from start to finish, which made what could have been a stressful process feel completely smooth and straightforward. Thank you so much!

We have used Risdons solicitors in Bridgwater for several things for our will and for our property. We have not had any problems at all. Michelle has sorted a few things with our property and I can highly recommend her. Thank you Risdons solicitors.
