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,

Initially we were unsure how to proceed with gaining lasting power of attorney, we were taken to a comfortable office where everything was explained to us in a relaxed easy to understand, knowledgeable manner. Always greeted by staff in a pleasant manner.

Great experience with Richard Reed

Richard Reed have been brilliant working through what has been a very difficult process of sorting my late fathers estate. Both Kat and Phil could not have been better and made an awful process easier credit also to Hilda for her kind words and help. Annaliese has also been a great help sorting probate . Would not hesitate in recommending this firm of solicitors.

Drawing up of a will

Solicitor, Helena Dar, professional; did everything speedily; kept me informed at every stage & explained all; asked me if I had any questions. Was reassuring throughout; put me at my ease, because I was a bit reticent & nervous I was making sense. All documentation was sent speedily to me. I especially appreciated the sheet itemising the bill & the fact that it said “total to be paid.” So, I was in no doubt what the final bill to be paid was. Furthermore, the receptionist initially, who took my phone call was efficient & friendly. And, Helena, the solicitor, phoned me very soon after that initial contact, to arrange to come out to my house to discuss matters. As I am disabled & cannot walk a lot because of my knee & hip (a little) arthritis, I was so, so relieved, when Helena said I need not visit the office, but she would come to my house & later she & a witness visited me for me to sign the will. I will always consult this firm, if I need a solicitor & will highly recommend them to anyone seeking legal help. A much appreciative client, congratulations to all, who made my experience at drawing up my will so easy & enjoyable.

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

5 star service

I made initial contact to discuss help with a settlement agreement which up until that point I had never heard of. Hilda explained the process and emailed me confirmation within minutes, this prompt professional reassuring service continued throughout, prompt responses and clear information of what was required from me. I then had my appointment with Kat who again explained everything clearly and checked my understanding throughout.I would highly recommend the company.

Great choice for a house purchase. My side was completed in a very efficient manner, responses always within 24 hours and provides explanations when requested. While reasonably priced, you do get what you pay for and I would recommend Richard Reed above any high street offering.
