SCOTT RICHARDS SOLICITORS in Newton Abbot are AMAZING!!!!

Absolutely the best Solicitors we have EVER used for our house purchase. Alice Darch, Katy Dore and the rest of the Team always went above and beyond to help us get through. Everyone was ALWAYS Polite and Courteous regardless of the amount of times we contacted the Team via email, phone and in person. Times are tough for most at the moment but with Scott Richards support, you should get there. 100% Recommended! THANK YOU x

Another experience of great service

This review is for a different branch.

Having had a very satisfactory experience with Scott Richards from the conveyancing team, I approached them again to discuss estate planning and inheritance issues. Once again, I was quickly directed to the appropriate person who provided me with excellent service and advice. What I particularly like about this company is that every member of staff with whom you come into contact is very efficient, friendly and they really take the time to understand your specific circumstances and needs.
Once again, I am very happy with the service I received and would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Excellent Service by Thomas Glover

Lovely staff at Scott Richards. Unfortunately Tom had to pick up on my case after a colleague had left. he was efficient and empathetic to the situation, a perfect gentleman.
I would highly recommend him and would return to him if necessary in the future.

Auction Purchase

This review is for a different branch.

My son has recently purchased a property at auction and used the service of Scott Richards team, I have got to say I never thought it would get to the dead line of 4 1/2 weeks however the team Paul, Jamie Alice and other staff made this possible, they all went above and beyond to help him get there and I am very grateful to them, I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone I work in estate agency and have our own solicitors BUT I dont think any other solicitor would have got him passed the deadline. A very BIG thank you to all the team I was very impressed and grateful. Well done to you all xxMaria Eves

I just wanted to express my sincere thanks to Jamie and the team at Scott Richards!
Over the years Jamie has helped us with personal wills, the administration of my late parent’s estate, house purchases and financial transactions!
Jamie’s friendly nature and ‘can do’ attitude has taken the stress out of some difficult times! Thank you Scott Richards!

House purchase

This review is for a different branch.

Sophie at Scott Richards was great with sorting our house move a couple years ago. Answered all questions promptly and kept in touch daily to give updates.

We are looking to purchase another property and have asked if Sophie is available again.
