Mum passed away suddenly, and from the start Florence went above and beyond to help under emotional circumstances. She was understanding, highly responsive, and a genuine delight to work with.

Most amazing care and advice

I have had the best experience working with sills, their team has been amazing and so professional. With many issues along the way they have known how to deal with everything and informed me on every single step, while taking the pressure off me. I couldn’t recommend any more if I tried.

Patient, professional and prompt

Team Sue were fantastic. They were incredibly thorough with the whole process and very patient with us as first time buyers.
They were very professional in their roles and always gave us the best possible advice in a myriad of situations, and I would use them again happily.

Very grateful to have chosen them for our first property. I would urge anyone thinking of using Sills for your property purchase to do it - you won’t be disappointed.

We have used Sills & Betteridge in Sleaford twice now, first to buy a house and now to sell the same house and buy another one! On both occasions, they have been professional and attentive and I would highly recommend their conveyancing services. Thank you to Sue's team for a painless process again, particularly Yvonne who a pleasure to work with.

Sills & Betteridge worked on my Children's Matters case above and beyond any expectations. The support, guidance, and advice I received were issued in a straightforward, caring, and very clear & understandable manner. The family law team was always extremely polite and showed patience when dealing with me on the telephone and/or email. I would recommend their services to anyone who finds themselves in a very difficult and emotionally charged legal case. Thank you.
