We recently used Megan as our solicitor for purchasing our first house. We could not fault the service! It was quick and efficient and the process ran so smoothly. Megan was quick to reply to any emails & was happy to answer any questions when we had uncertainties! She definitely made our first experience of using solicitors a positive one. We will recommend her to anyone that her service may be of use too!

Highly recommended
I instructed Risdon Hosegood on Persimmon’s suggestion whilst reserving a newbuild house from them. I did not regret it as I found my solicitor Megan Carthew to be efficient, effective and highly responsive. The process went very smoothly and Risdon’s rates are reasonable.

Our Will Update
we were fortunate that we were able to use a local solicitor who gave us confidence that our Will would be property drafted. The follow up meeting reassured us that the Will would accord with our wishes. Very pleased with the way the whole process was conducted

Went with Risdon Minehead branch to buy my first home. The whole process was much faster than expected and within eight weeks I had the keys to the house!
Caz and Kate were very helpful and always able to answer any questions throughout the process. They went the extra mile to make sure I had everything I required legally which included creating extra documents at my request which wouldn't usually be required for buying a property, just purely for my benefit and personal circumstances.
Overall I can't fault them. Really helpful and would definitely go with Risdon Minehead branch again.

We are very happy with our experience of using Risdon Hosegood. They dealt with everything that was required in a highly efficient manner. We found the person dealing with our conveyancing, Megan, to be very helpful and friendly. She was quick to answer all of our questions and dealt with matters in a timely and professional way. Very grateful, she made what could have been a very stressful time much easier.

When buying our first house at the end of last year we chose Risdon, thank god we did! The team at Minehead were so helpful. Catherine and Andrew were brilliant and efficient and our experience was seamless. Thank you for making our experience a pleasant one.

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.
