Excellent, speedy and efficient

My wife and I heard of Sophie through the Age Concern Free Will Month, which we discussed not qualify for and the reviews she received prompted us to contact Beeston Shenton having been quoted an alarming amount by another solicitor to review our wills. We had a meeting with her and 2 days later the drafts were e mailed to us. We called again to sign. She made everything seem so simple and stress free.

Professional and friendly

Ellie firstly dealt with a non molestation and occupation order for domestic abuse. My mind was put at ease as Ellie was reassuring, compassionate and professional. Ellie then went on to deal with my divorce which took 17mths through this time her advice and direction was second to none, communication was very good.Ellie also recommended a barrister for the financial hearing and again her choice was perfect. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this company and Ellie to anyone. Thank you again I would have given up if not for you.

Professionalism, attention to detail and speed of service

Absolute pleasure dealing with Russell. Understood exactly what my requirements were and was able to very quickly support me in getting everything closed. Very prompt and professional in terms of communication and advice. I would, without a doubt work with Russell again in the future.

Very friendly and professional service provided throughout the sale of our home. The reason it was a 4 star and not a 5 is because sometimes it was difficult to try to speak to someone on the phone. We had to leave messages at other times for a call back, but again sometimes it never happened.

I highly recommend the conveyancing team at Beeston Shenton Solicitors, particularly for their professionalism and competence under pressure. Our experience, though initially turbulent due to a land registry issue and the unfortunate loss of one of their fee earners halfway through the process, turned out to be very positive.

Initially, we were quite shaken and experienced a lull in updates and service, which left us worried. However, after speaking with Tracey, Emma and Veronica, our confidence was fully restored. All three were outstanding in their roles; their communication was clear and concise, whether through calls or emails, and they worked diligently to resolve our issues.

Thanks to their efforts, the stress of the transaction was significantly reduced, making the process much more bearable for my parents. Veronica, in particular, is an exemplary leader with a firm grip on the conveyancing processes at the firm. She is extremely knowledgeable and efficient, steering her team to perform at their best.

For anyone needing conveyancing services, I wholeheartedly recommend Beeston Shenton Solicitors and their dedicated team.
