Excellent Service

From the moment we met Kevin he put us a ease, as not ever going through anything like this before. He was very professional, patient and knowledgeable and took the time to explain things thoroughly, it made the situation less stressful knowing we were in his capable hands. He was so good with my mom who is in her very late 70's and explained everything slowly. Thank you very much for your help with this and on this basis I would recommend Sydney Mitchell to anyone.

Dying Intestate

I'd like to thank Kevin Dhanda of Sydney Mitchell for being absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process of a difficult year after my sisters sudden death. She died intestate and Kevin handled the whole matter from applying for Letters of Administration, capital gains queries for the Inland Revenue and sorting out the whole Estate. He was thorough, professional and reassuring at all times. Would definitely recommend him.

Estate of Deceased Relative

During the time that it took to deal with our late relative's estate, Kevin Dhanda and his colleagues at Sydney Mitchell always provided a comprehensive, efficient and professional service. This was particularly important to us due to the geographical distance involved between ourselves as Executors and the location of our relative's home address. Thank you again for your outstanding service. Your professionalism and expertise were truly appreciated.

Friendly, helpful and professional company

Have used Sydney Mitchell before regarding our wills, so was happy to use them to sort out my late mothers estate. It was a long process, but we were happy with the final outcome.

Probate service

When I first went to the Solicitors with what i first thought was straightforward, it has been anything but. Not expecting to do probate, Megan has guided me through it and this has been quicker than I expected. There are other aspects that Megan is still guiding me with I have found her to be reliable and helpful, friendly whilst still being professional.

Jessica has been empathetic, professional and fastidious throughout the whole process. We never had one concern that everything would be handled quickly and professionally, and it was. Despite our purchasers having unprofessional solicitors, Jessica was calm and always kept us updated. Jessica has been nothing short of amazing. We would not hesitate to recommend her. Thank you
