Having recently used Coodes services and been allocated to Kate Bayley, I cannot recommend her highly enough. Dealing with a family matter across two generations with a tight deadline, Kate was patient and helpful, professional and efficient. From the initial quote through to assistance with secondary matters when the case was complete, Kate has ensured everything was looked after quickly and effectively. We cannot thank her enough.
A representative from Coodes Solicitors responded to this review on 04 October, 2024:
Dear Helen, Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear about your positive experience with Kate. Your appreciation means a lot to us! Best regards, Coodes LLP

I am writing to express my experience with Coodes concerning the service I received in October 2020 during the purchase of my first home.
Regrettably, the service offered by Coodes was subpar. Despite promptly settling the final bill upon conclusion, I was recently surprised to receive communication in April 2024 requesting an additional £215 due to an administrative error that occurred more than 40 months after our business was completed.
Though the sum may appear insignificant, I was startled by this unanticipated demand. I chose not to escalate the issue as I perceived no advantage in pursuing it further.
I felt compelled to relay my encounter as a word of caution to others who may contemplate engaging with Coodes in the future.
Thank you for your attention.
Yours sincerely,
Rui

I have used Coodes in Holsworthy on multiple occasions. Both Kate and Amelia have been exceedingly efficient with both the house purchase and sale and have been quick to act on various points along the way, completing the process of sale in just under 8 weeks. I wouldn't hesitate to use them for the next purchase.

Dear Jon Thank you so much for your kind review. Coodes
