Professional and supportive

Rachel dealt with our medical negligence claim following the death of our mother. She was very kind, patient and supportive. She talked us through the process and made sure that we knew what to expect. Rachel gave us a first class service and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

Poor service

I used them in my divorce proceedings and found that the service I received was poor in my opinion, and I emailed them over 8 times to complain about costs and stop working for me yet they, put me in to court for non payment when It clearly says in writing. I wouldn’t use them every again and would choose another solicitor firm if I was you.

Utterly terrible - would never recommend

The level of service I received by Ramsdens has been utterly terrible, the amount of times I have rung up the office to try and get hold of one person and get a solution to my problem has been ridiculous, all for something they should have resolved over a year ago.
I am yet to receive title documents for a property I completed on in April 2017, and it is December 2018 and no-one is prepared to help me with this.

Harriet is a total star to work with

Communication was brilliant at all times. We didn’t have to chase Harriet ever as she responded so efficiently to everything that came in. This sale took over a year due to a break in chain and throughout she kept in touch just to see how we were with house sale. Would highly recommend.

Professional, Clear and Good Communication

We recently worked with this team for the sale of our old home in West Yorkshire and the purchase of our new one in East Yorkshire. The service was exceptional from start to finish.

The professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication they showed throughout the process were truly impressive. They ensured a smooth transition between homes, handling both transactions with great care and diligence.

We've now been in our new house for over a week, and it's fantastic! The move has brought us so much joy, and we're excited to start this new chapter in our lives.

Thank you for your hard work and commitment. We highly recommend their services to anyone in need of conveyancing expertise!

I used Rhianne Taylor for my divorce & Joanne Canning/Scott Aked for my remortgage and the service was seamless. All three people I dealt with were incredibly patient and helpful and managed to get everything through for me on my tight deadline. They were very communicative and responsive and always there to help with the many questions I had. Would definitely recommend them to anyone.

We recently used Ramsdens (Elland office) to complete our sale and purchase conveyancing.

Our transactions were handled by Jolene Briggs and her team from instruction to completion.

Communication was consistent throughout and increased at times where required.

Following the date for completion being decided there was some challenges with our buyers solicitors however Jolene was on hand to support and ensured we completed on time.

Really great, local firm.

Sarah and Danielle make the most wonderful team!! They have made a stressful journey a delight. I would recommend them to anyone and would 1000% use them again. They are professional, acted in a timely manner and they are happy to pick up the phone and talk to you and explain legal jargon- which I have found so many other firms don't seem to have the time to do! Geniually thankyou.
