Would highly recommend Alex Ross and Bell & Buxton
Appointed Bell & Buxton (namely Alex Ross) as our solicitor for a business acquisition. Alex was extremely diligent, approachable and professional throughout the process, and acted as a strong advocate for our business in the transaction. Responses were timely, well communicated and work was delivered to a very high standard. Fees were made clear from the start and different options provided (fixed fee vs hourly rates), and once agreed this was adhered to. I would highly recommend Alex and Bell & Buxton for merger/acquisitions.
A representative from Bell & Buxton Limited Liability Partnership responded to this review on 17 April, 2024:
Thank you! We're thrilled Alex provided diligent and professional service for your business acquisition. Your recommendation means a lot to us. Best Regards, Bell & Buxton Limited Liability Partnership

Thank you, Jane for your exceptional support.

Highly Recommend
Robert Johnson has recently represented me for an inheritance act claim. I contacted him after searching the internet for a recommended, experienced solicitor with good reviews. My case has been resolved through mediation, and I could not be happier with the result. Robert is a very experienced and knowledgeable solicitor with great understanding and consideration. Him and his team worked diligently for my case, kept me fully informed throughout, and guided me to make the right decisions. I absolutely recommend him for anyone wishing to make a similar claim.
A representative from Bell & Buxton Limited Liability Partnership responded to this review on 15 March, 2024:
We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Robert and our team. Thank you, Karen, for trusting us with your inheritance act claim and for recommending our services.

Very pleased with Alex Ross of Bell & Buxton
We have used Bell & Buxton for a number of different legal services so when I realised I was out of my depth trying to sort out a share change issue myself (because no-one wants to pay for legal services if they don't have to) I turned to Alex. Wow, he made it so easy! I was so glad we used his services, he knew things that I didn't have a chance of knowing, and has completed the job very painlessly. The quote was reasonable and we are very happy with the service.
A representative from Bell & Buxton Limited Liability Partnership responded to this review on 23 February, 2024:
Dear Sue Thank you very much for your kind comments. We're really pleased Alex was able to help and that you were so satisfied with the service. It means a lot to us. Best wishes Bell & Buxton LLP

Please please avoid this firm at all costs!!
It took over 2 years for a probate case (which they didn’t even finish as we got so fed up with it we ended it unresolved) We experienced months of them ignoring emails for updates, no communication, high staff turnover, and little care or acknowledgment that behind this “case” was a family grieving and waiting for closure on a terrible chapter of our lives.
When I raised a formal complaint I was still ignored, no apology, no explanation of how or why we were being ignored and they were more concerned about protecting themselves. I CC’d in every partner of the firm, so that they were all aware of our terrible experience. Still, no acknowledgement. They just don’t care.
To top it all off, when we received all the paperwork on record it included paperwork of another customer including this persons confidential details.
A terrible firm, with partners at the top who think they are above providing satisfactory customer service and are happy to bill and pay themselves out of the estate while you wait months for an email response. AVOID!!

We have used Bell and Buxton three times now and have had a first rate experience each time. David was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. It was a pleasure working with him and we would thoroughly recommend.

I would not recommend. The firm has taken on too much work without enough resources.
I used this firm for a house sale. Sam and Lucy missed some checklist items and were unavailable when needed. All ended up getting resolved and pushing through, but it was a very stressful experience.
Also, I reported my frustrations to the firm and Sam. Sam was arrogant and borderline rude, but the office manager was very kind.
