Excellent Legal Service, Southampton

Our new Wills were prepared under the Cancer Research UK scheme. We were really pleased with the manner in which the Paralegal Assistant (Tanya Ajmani) dealt with the matter. We were given clear information about the whole procedure and the process was fully explained. We would have no hesitation in recommending this firm of solicitors.

Knowledgeable, friendly and excellent.

During a particularly stressful time, Eric Robinson Solicitors was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and simply the best option I came across. After interviewing several firms, it became evident that they were the most honest and fair choice. They were exceptional throughout the entire process. While I hope I won't need their services again, if I do, I know I'll be a loyal client for life.

Sale of house

I found Michelle Parker so warm, understanding & compassionate throughout an experience I've never been through before. I really appreciated her expertise, her motivation & her humanity.

Despite a ( no doubt ) hectic & often frustrating role, she was easy to reach, easy to talk to when I needed to bounce my questions off her & above all, took all the heat off me without any judgement. I was struck by her enthusiasm for her role in helping me get the job done. She is exceptional !!

Thank you for everything, Michelle. I'm very grateful 🙏

Fantastic solicitors

Recently sold 2 properties that were leasehold. Due to cladding issues, the property sale was more complicated than most, however Cathy Bailey took the time to understand and find all the details required and completed both sales as originally planned. We will continuing to use Cathy for all future and sales and Alan Knight for purchases - both are high recommended.

We have recently sold a property through Cathy Bailey and Alan Knight at Bitterne Branch. Both were wonderful. Cathy talked me through each step of the sale. Cathy was approachable, knowledgeable and professional throughout and I will continue to use her for all our sales. Highly recommend.

We’ve just completed on our very first family home. I honestly cannot fault Michelle and the team. They’ve been amazing. Michelle was recommended to us through family. Her communication has been great throughout, her patience and understanding when things weren’t going as they were meant to in the earlier days, and her professionalism is next to none. And as an added bonus, she’s really lovely! I would recommend Michelle to anyone and everyone, and have already been singing her praises to friends and family. Thank you so much Michelle, for making what will always be a stressful experience, so much easier.

Danielle Martin at Eric Robinson could not have been nicer. She kept me informed and updated every step of the way and answered all my questions. She made the sale of my property , from the initial HM Land Registry registration to completion, as easy and smooth as possible. I will definitely be using Danielle again for conveyancing
