Confidence

5

Selling and then buying a home is a very stressful experience, particularly in financial terms, and having confidence in the solicitor to take care of all aspects of these transactions is of paramount importance. In Frettens, we had full confidence.

Purchase of Silver Birches, 2 Black Water Drive, Canford Magna

5

We were delighted with the service we received from Michelle on the purchase of the above named property. Michelle was always quick to respond to communication and thorough in dealing with the enquiries raised on the property. The purchase of our property was protracted for circumstances beyond all parties' control, but we very much appreciated Michelle's assistance throughout the process. We would be happy to endorse Michelle and would have no hesitation in recommending her services.

I cannot speak highly enough about the professional manner that michelle took regarding my dealings with her and her team where I was constantly kept upto date either via voicemail, email or direct telephone conversation regarding the progress of my legal matter. Michelle was very thorough and completed the legal documentation within our agreed timescale.

Michelle Peterson is brilliant.

Michelle was brilliant through the whole process - Conveyancing on the sale of 2 properties at the same time.
Michelle is lovely to deal with. I never pushed her (I wouldn’t ) but I didn’t need to. She kept me up to date with where we were in the process the whole way. She is so efficient and works so your behalf. I am so grateful.
So thank you Frettens - excellent.
Thank you Michelle - 5 STAR

This review follows the second time I’ve worked with Michelle Peterson and her colleagues at Frettens Solicitors. My first was a property sale for a house which threw everything at us, a boundary dispute, access rights, an incompetent lender that took an eternity to respond, basically we had the works! Michelle took everything under her wing and worked hard against all these adversities to sell my house which she did. It was only natural for me to ask her to help me buy a new house in Bournemouth, which I am now resident in. Thanks Michelle!

I have been trying to sell my Mum’s property for a couple of years and had no end of problems along the way with potential sales but unfortunately never completing. We eventually found a buyer and Michelle Petersen has provided a highly professional and competent service, helping me along the way in a friendly and efficient way. My Mum is in a Nursing Home and Michelle was so kind when she visited her and was understanding towards her needs and her best interests. Thank you Michelle and Sevill for all your help.
