Solicitor at Lester Campbell LLP

Rodney Lester

Solicitor - Partner and Head of Commercial Property

SRA ID: 104004

I have over 40 years post qualification experience and prior to establishing Lester Campbell was the Senior Partner at Lester Morrill Solicitors, which was established 44 years ago in 1972.The primary areas of practice, and my niche for many years, was the representation of clients appearing before criminal courts and civil litigation and, in particular, clinical negligence and social justice. Over the years, as those departments grew and the work was covered by colleagues, I began to focus more on property transactions and, for the last 10 or so years have almost exclusively acted on property transactions. This led to my decision to retire from Lester Morrill and establish Lester Campbell, enabling me to focus 100% on residential and commercial property and service my established loyal following of clients who appreciate my traditional and personal service.

Rodney has acted on my behalf on a number of occasions over the years. He has never been anything less than excellent: highly professional, efficient and a pleasure to deal with. I recommend him highly.

I used Lester Campbell to sell and buy property and found them efficient and speedy. Either Jade and Rodney were there to take calls and reply to my queries, sometimes out of "office hours" making a big difference to moving both the sale and purchase on.

I have worked with both Jade and Rodney on a number of transactions both professionally and personally and couldn't recommend them highly enough. They always answered my calls and responded to emails in a timely manner. They are the top of their game and upfront with costs by providing a clearly broken down of all likely costs before any work is conducted. They are both professional, approachable and always act in the best interests of their clients to make buying or selling a property as pain free as possible. I have referred a number of people there including my mother who was equally as happy. Thanks guys :)
