Super Solicitors

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.

Extremely helpful

Needed advice in connection with an insurance claim. Ms Goutsal was able to clarify my rights and identify the options open to me. Armed with that knowledge I was able to deal confidently with the insurance company.

Anri fulfilled all my expectations regarding a solicitor dealing with a sale of property. Communication in particular was excellent. The only observation I'd make was in relation to the on line portal which at times was a little frustrating to use.

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!
