Writing our Wills.

We are so impressed with the service we received from Abby Young when she prepared our Wills for my husband and I. Our family circumstances are somewhat complicated and Abby and her team could not have been more helpful and professional in the advice and care they gave to us. At each stage of the process we were clearly presented with alternatives and Abby was extremely patient and helpful in ensuring we achieved the result we wanted. Abby is warm, client centred and totally professional, a credit to her firm and her profession. Thank you, we now have peace of mind knowing we have left our affairs in good order.

We got back in touch with you, as you had previously been our solicitor when dealing with our family matters and we had greatly appreciated your solid, sound advice around the sad and difficult circumstances we were faced with. You have always been efficient with correspondence and responded to our emails within hours. Once again, your guidance and support was very much valued, thank you.

Sale of multiple properties

Without Rachel and Aishwin I could never have done this. Both were invaluable. They were hard working, knowledgeable, fast acting, thorough and a pleasure to deal with. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Outstanding Support Throughout the Mirror Will Process

We recently had our mirror wills prepared and were very impressed with the service provided. The solicitor was professional, friendly, and approachable throughout. Communication was clear, with every step explained in detail, and we received excellent advice whenever there were areas that needed further consideration. Responses were always prompt, and the whole process was handled efficiently and with care. We would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Residential Conveyancing

I recently used Richard Bland at Carter Bells for the conveyancing on my property transaction in Kingston upon Thames, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Selling a property can be stressful, but Richard made the entire process smooth and straightforward. His communication was excellent: he kept me updated at every key milestone, responded promptly to emails, and explained complex legal details clearly. The final fees matched the initial fixed quote exactly, with no hidden surprises. Professional, efficient, and thorough, I would definitely use him again.

Litigation / Dispute Resolution

Carter Bells were very efficient and professional and made our lease extension process run smoothly. We went with Carter Bells over other lease extension specialists as we wanted to continue to work with someone local and knowledgeable, we know that are a safe pair of hands through experience of using their conveyancing department.
