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.

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

Excellent service.

Contacted this firm for advice regarding a possible dispute with a tenant. We were given an appointment within days and met with Alex who explained the procedures in a friendly professional manner. He then then kept in touch by email until the matter was resolved. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks again Alex.

Settlement agreement

I was offered a settlement agreement from my employer, contacted Richard Reed after another solicitor cancelled appointment last minute. I was given an appointment straight away with Kat Moody. Kat explained everything perfectly and supported with everything including making amendments to the agreement. Kat dealt directly with employer and got everything complete within 24 hours.
