slow and fees will change without explanation and for the same service

Slow service and fees change without explanation. At the beginning, they stated the fees that would be owed for the services. Then, months later, was told that much higher fees were due for the same services (nothing additional). When asked for an explanation of this, they did not give one, yet demanded payment of the newly amended higher fees. Unprofessional and disappointing.

Don't use this firm

I did not have a good experience with the Probate team. Poor communication and they put you on a treadmill with their legal fees. I couldn't believe it when the final bill was calculated. I never leave bad reviews, but I was really upset and had to share.

Excellent Client Care

I have used Russell-Cooke for conveyancing a few times now and each time I have been provided with excellent client care from beginning to end. I was kept informed of the progress of my transaction throughout and any queries were answered quickly and clearly. I would not hesitate to recommend the firm.

A truly professional and competent team

What a thoroughly professional approach Janice Gardner and her team took in conducting my complex medical legal claim over a period of four years. Throughout this time I was consulted and kept informed of all the major issues involved. Janice's team were always approachable, supportive and completely thorough in their investigations ensuring I received the best possible representation and outcome.

Brilliant end to end delivery

I was tempted to find a cheaper firm to handle my case but I'm glad I didn't. Rachel has been first class throughout the process. Whilst our case hasn't been the most straightforward she has kept in regular contact and given clear and practical advice. I would thoroughly recommend Russell-Cooke.

Highly recommend

I have used Russel- Cooke twice and they have been excellent. I received prompt, personalised help with both an employment and family issue and would highly recommend them. Profesional, diligent but most importantly I felt safe in their hands and my questions were heard and attended to.

Very happy with the service

I've been using Russell-Cooke for years for my conveyancing and family related services and have always found them to be honest, direct and efficient. I have recently reinstructed them for another property purchase because I know they will be sensible, realistic and go the extra mile if need be. I would strongly recommend them (and have done to family and friends).

Full marks for Russell-Cooke LLP

We have been clients of Russell Cooke for over 30 years and have always found their service to be professional, friendly and efficient. Recently, Russell Cooke handled the sale of a property where the buyers desired a fast turn around. From accepting the offer to completion Russell Cooke expedited the transaction in just three weeks! Excellent service. Mr & Mrs Taylor

Worst experience EVER with Erica Jean-Marie

Dealing with the death of a loved one can be a traumatic event. Having to deal with attorneys who are handling the division of assets as it relates to the estate of your loved one, where the attorneys do not care, is just disheartening. My loved one passed away in 2021 and to date, I am unable to get any information as to when the estate will be resolved. The customer service is awful. Erica John-Marie does not respond to emails or provide any information. There is no sense of urgency and further, no explanation or provision of a time frame of when the estate may be resolved. Information is incorrectly and falsely reported and there is no contact by anyone at Russell Cooke to explain why or when the false information would be rectified. There is absolutely no discussion as to what the issues are - not even in a general sense. Just awful! I am wowed by this awful treatment!
