Getting to

I had an excellent experience at Richard Reed redoing my will. The young woman solicitor dealing with it was kind, knowledgable and helpful. However there is no parking close to their new address for elderly people, so I found that problematic.

Fast Friendly Professional Service

Both the reception team and the solicitor handled my query professionally on the phone and in person. My existing will needed amending and this was carried out professionally and quickly with communication lines kept open throughout. My queries were fully answered and phone calls were returned promptly.

Updating wills

On entering the Richard Reed offices the reception staff were welcoming,giving a good first impression. Helena ( the solicitor) came across as very professional. At the first meeting she put us at ease and updated our wills in line with our requests. I have already recommended Richard Reeds to my family, as a result of our experience.

We recently used the services of Richard Reed Solicitors to help us write a new will and to avail ourselves of their expertise in the creation of Lasting Power of Attorney. We found to our delight that the experience was one of reassurance and complete confidence in the execution of this task. We would like to express our sincere thanks to them and in particular Mr. Jonny Cockayne for his pleasant manner and swift conclusion to these matters. We would have no hesitation recommending Richard Reed to anyone seeking legal assistance. Stewart A. Taylor

Employment law guidance

Excellent service from Kat and Hilda during a distressing work place issue, resulting in clear explanations of my settlement agreement, guidance on negotiating and finally a stress free conclusion for myself. Great communication and clear, fast responses to any questions I had. Great service, would definitely recommend and use again if needed.
