House sale and purchase

The process of selling and buying a property can be very stressful and having a good solicitor and assistant can be crucial to the smooth running of the process. Teresa and assistant Kate were always there to help when needed and their efforts made the whole process run as smoothly as possible. Also Teresa has the most wonderful and essential sense of humour and has the ability to give confidence due to her extensive experience of conveyancing and professionalism.

Conveyance

Simple land transfer with no complications has taken nearly 3 years without any noticeable progress.

Chaotic and frustrating

They changed my lawyer multiple times through the purchase of my property. I had the most simple possible arrangement for purchasing a house, yet they consistently dropped the ball and it still took a full year. My estate agent had never seen anything like it. Wasn't taken seriously at all, they did almost nothing until I threatened to leave and find another solicitor. Suddenly then it was all fine and done within a few weeks!

A representative from Risdons Solicitors responded to this review

We have reviewed this matter and respectfully disagree that we “dropped the ball” or that it took a full year. It took 11 weeks to exchange contracts from full receipt of the contract pack on 25th April 2024 and completion occurred three weeks after that on 25th July 2024. There was a necessary change of lawyer but this in no way impacted timescales.

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

Selling our home

From start to finish, the service we received from Anri at Risdons was first class. The whole experience of selling our home was made so easy with very little stress. I will 100% use Risdons again.

Very pleasant staff in the office and all work completed as expected. Would have liked a little more communication at times but no complaints.

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.

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.

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