Ann-Marie was excellent all the way through and kept us informed throughout. The completion date changed a few times but she managed to accommodate this even though the other solicitors were uncooperative and at times rude. Ann-Marie even worked outside of the normal working hours.
A representative from Coodes Solicitors responded to this review on 12 February, 2025:
Thank you, Shaun and Jacky! We’re so glad to hear that Ann-Marie was able to provide excellent support throughout the process, even when challenges arose. Your feedback means a lot, and we truly appreciate your recognition of her dedication and hard work!

After a few teething problems with the first person we were allocated we were then moved to a different office and different paralegal which turned out to be the very best thing as from that moment things moved along at far a different pace.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Mr and Mrs James! It’s wonderful to hear that Sarah and the new team provided excellent service and efficiency. Your feedback is appreciated!

Coodes Solicitors provided me with expert help, guidance and extensive knowledge during my use of their services. They were extremely professional on every level, while remaining approachable . This allowed me to discuss matters with them that, as a novice were very daunting , to achieve the required outcome on the day. I am very impressed by them and grateful for the work and results provided.
