Zara was absolutely fantastic, provided an excellent service and ensured our purchase was both smooth and fast. Both herself and her assistant Anna were incredibly professional, helpful and empathetic; a real pleasure to work with!

I received a great service throughout the process of transferring a property to my husband. Zara was professional, informative and supportive from introduction to closure of completion. I'd also say the fees were more than fair. I would be more than happy to recommend both Zara and Stephen Rimmer.

First-class service

I really appreciated Zara Coton’s availability during the lengthy process of a property sale. She / Stephen Rimmer provided a clear and accurate estimate of their very reasonable costs, and my queries, almost entirely about delays to the process caused by the slowness of another firm of solicitors, we’d always responded to promptly and efficiently, and in a friendly manner. I am very satisfied with Zara’s work and recommend her and Stephen Rimmer LLP without hesitation.

Ive used Stephen Rimmer for over two decades. They have always been great. However I started to instruct Zara 5 years ago on Land and property as well as wills and power of attorney. She has been brilliant to work with. She is a fantastic lawyer who never makes a fuss I trust her 500%. Its great to know I have such a great legal team going forward.
