Our experience from start to end was amazing. Michelle and the team at Risdons were very efficient, professional and supportive beyond expectation and certain went the extra mile thoughout. Communication was easy and effective at every stage. The online portal was great for updates. Michelle was very suypportive with working closely with our estate agent which proved very valuable and helped to get things done in good time and supported hurdles along the way. we would highly reccomend Risdons and in particular out support from Michelle means we will happily be a returning customer should we ever move! Thanks to all.

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.

There's an old Somerset saying 'Never use Risdons' this bore truth on our recent sale of Laburnum Cottage. When all documents have been provided 2 months prior to enable a transfer, Risdons managed to avoid doing anything until the very last minute even though they had been told there was an urgent need to get the completion done. Somehow they lost one half of an electronic document and blamed the other solicitors. Then lied that the other solicitor was holding them up.
NEVER USE RISDONS

Paula from Risdon Hosegood in Taunton acted for our sale and purchase in Yeovil. We were delighted with the service and found everyone friendly and extremely helpful. Even when we thought we had hit a brick wall with a legal issue it was sorted out quickly effectively and efficiently and we were given great communication. We would highly recommend the company and use them again in the future.
