Risdons are highly recommended.

My mum needed a solicitor for her house sale and new purchase. I emailed three potentials and Risdons responded really quickly to my questions in a detailed and professional manner. Through both the sale and purchase, Michelle, Emma and the team have really impressed me. The process was protracted with a few issues with other solicitors and we were regularly updated. I would highly recommend Risdons and would definitely use them again in the future.

A good level of service

Risdons Solicitors dealt with my case in a highly proffessional way and ensured a smooth process up to the exchange of contracts. Communication was good, even though I had to chase things up sometimes. Overall I am happy with the services I received and I would gladly recommend Risdons Solicitors to others.

I'm not sure if Risdons (especially Anna Venning) could have pushed any harder or been any more helpful. I was not able to use my original solicitor so 'had' to use Risdons and honestly it's the best choice I made. If and when in the future the requirement is there, Anna will be my first choice. I cannot thank them/her any more, absolutely brilliant service!! they make the complicated reallyu uncomplicated through what is now obviously, a wealth of experiance in that office! Thanks Risdons - Howie :) x

During the process, the Risdons email server was hacked by criminals. As a result, we received the wrong instructions for paying a large amount. Now Risdons refuses all cooperation and does not want to compensate for the damage. They are old-fashioned and use temporary staff. They do not take any responsibility and sometimes it takes weeks before you hear that the person handling your case has left. In the meantime, nothing happens and you are left to your fate. Be careful what you do if you take advice from this office.

A representative from Risdons Solicitors responded to this review

This review contains information that we believe is not a true reflection of the matter. Our email server has never been hacked.

AVOID. AVOID. AVOID. AVOID. In my opinion, there are solicitors who work to get the best for their clients and there are solicitors who do the bare minimum knowing the longer a case goes on, the more it will cost the client. You can guess what my opinion is of Risdon Hosegood from the star rating I've given it.

Following the passing of my wife, Risdons assisted me with ensuring that all relative items relating to joint names were adjusted. Risdons were very considerate and respectful throughout the meetings and correspondence which i was very grateful for.

Excellent service

Risdons have completed the conveyancing of two flats which are sold as leasehold. I had not realised how complex such a sale could be, especially with a buyer's solicitor who raised every possible problem. I was impressed by the solicitor's calm way of handling everything, and by their very modest fees.

Selling an old leasehold flat in a conservation area is not straight forward but Risdon's did a great job of overcoming the difficulties .

Really good service from Julie & Rachel in the Wellington Office. We were working on short time-scales and they did everything they could to accommodate this. I can't fault the service they provide at all. Many thanks
