Purchase of first home

Kerry has been absolutely brilliant from start to finish. So professional, so helpful and easy to work with. Hardly a day went by throughout the process without an update and explanation on what was happening. Very pleased with all the service we received, highly recommend!

Great Legal and Customer service.

We recently sold our four-bedroom detached house and had the pleasure of working with Kerry Tresidder at Coodes Solicitors. From start to finish, Kerry went above and beyond to ensure the process was as smooth as possible. She kept us consistently informed, proactively chased progress when needed, and provided outstanding value for money.

One of the standout aspects of our experience was how easy Coodes made everything. We never had to visit their offices; all communication was handled seamlessly online and over the phone, which was incredibly convenient. Always contactable.

We were so impressed with Kerry’s professionalism and the level of service provided that we’ve already instructed her and Coodes to act on our house purchase as well.

Thank you, Kerry & Deborah, and the entire Coodes team, for a fantastic, hassle-free experience. We would thoroughly recommend Kerry and Coodes to anyone needing legal assistance with selling their property.

Highly recommended!

Demelza & the team showed steadfast professionalism

The claim became more complicated and lengthier than at first anticipated, but Demelza was patient, empathic, and communicated complexities in a clear and well researched manner. I was so fortunate to have chosen Demelza and Coodes to represent my personal injury claim.

Genuinely changed my perception of lawyers

I am really so appreciative, Hayley has been so helpful. Excellent. A stark contrast to
representation the solicitors we had before. They made it seem complicated and
costly but you have kept everything simple, as cost effective as possible, have dealt
with it very quickly and you have genuinely changed my perception of lawyers.

Hayley was entirely professional, understood our instructions completely,
and worked incredibly hard to achieve a result very quickly.

She was also approachable and spoke to me in layman’s terms which
I found incredibly helpful.

After a few weeks and back and forth sending them documents, filling in their paperwork, they then send a generic email saying they don't have the capacity to continue the case. Not really the professional service I expected when I reached out to them last month.
Save your time and look elsewhere as I will now have to do. I don't quite know how they became the 'leading law firm' that they call themselves ...if they can't even handle the most simple of cases
