Will review

Jude went to great detail in explaining the options for wills, ensuring we made the right decisions for our situation. She made sure we understood all of the will wording as it can be complex. She explains things in a very clear and concise way. We are very happy with the wills that are in place.

Competence and integrity. Realistic advice. No fuss.

I don't often bother with writing reviews but it can be hard to find trusty legal support. I hope this honest acknowledgement of good service and a fair outcome is useful.

Firstly, don't be fooled by the modest location of this practice. Our solicitor, Ben Stubbins, listened patiently to our needs whenever required and fought our corner professionally and without over-complicating matters.

Even though events were challenging and, at times, beyond our control, I felt we were supported with integrity throughout. Ultimately we achieved a desired outcome although it was anything but straightforward and we are very grateful for steering us through the process.

If you seek a polite, no-fuss attitude with profession graft and integrity then this is a good place to start.

Conveyancing review

We have just completed the sale of my mum’s property through Shacklocks. Christalla was great at keeping us informed and chasing progress and she was always at the end of the phone if I had any questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christalla to anyone needing this service.

Sale of previously rented terraced house in Ilkeston Derbyshire

Selling an ex-tenanted terraced house can be tricky, particularly if it's one that is pretty old and quirky! This one had a collection of 'out houses' that presented a few issues. William gave us sound advice and responded professionally to the purchaser's questions. The issue didn't prevent a sale because we feel it was dealt with professionally, swiftly and competently by our knowledgeable solicitor William. We'd always be happy to recommend him.

Conveyancing Experience

We are very greatful to Christalla for helping with our conveyancing. It took us six years and some aborted attempts to buy a property before we found the right one. Difficult, unresponsive buyers stretched the process another 6 months. Throughout the process Christalla was approachable, friendly, patient and professional always available when needed. Our thanks go to Christalla for a job very well done.
Shacklocks have been our solicitors for 2 generations working as executors, setting up wills, lasting powers of attorney and advising on estate planning.
