Brilliant service with us, always on hand via telephone or email. Took us through the purchase of our house and explained anything we were unsure of.

Excellent service from start to finish. I expected it to be a long drawn out process but so easy to do with professional, expert guidance. Very quickly completed. It’s ease of mind and I’m now recommending to as many people as possible.

Top quality service - Thank you!

Having previously instructed Campions Solicitors, we were keen to work with Sills. The service we received on both occasions was top class. Zen and Josie are professional, personable and very proactive. We were always fully informed; speaking several times a day for a number of weeks. Their determination and work ethic enabled a successful conclusion to a sale/purchase that was made very challenging by the buyer and their unfortunate choice of Solicitors. We have previously recommended Campions and will continue to recommend Sills. Thank you.

Fantastic Conveyancing

I would highly recommend for conveyancing. Very fast to respond to emails and made the whole process easy to understand every step of the way. I was never waiting for anything to be actioned and third parties were being regularly chased proactively without my input being needed.

Really happy with the service, excellent response times

I was recommended this firm by a few colleagues that had used the Nottingham branch of Campions (now S&B) previously for FTB home purchases and was extremely satisfied with the service provided.

My solicitor, Zen Thomas, had great communication throughout the entire process, always responding to emails promptly and being proactive to move the process along as quickly as possible.

The property I was buying wasn't actually even in Nottingham, but that wasn't an issue, and I'd happily choose this firm again for future purchases.

The very best lawyer!

I had the privilege of instructing Amy to work on the sale of my shared ownership property and purchase of a freehold. The sale transaction was not straight forward and took us 10 months to get it over the line due to the housing associations lack of input and the vendor's solicitors, who at one point, reached a conclusion that my shared ownership property was unmortgageable - Amy was able to point them to the facts and explain how this was untrue - wow, what a life saver!

Amy persevered throughout and stayed positive, when at times we were finding it hard to stay positive about the sale ourselves. Our emails were responded to efficiently, with care and expertise. The communication was flawless and we truly felt looked after. Amy went above and beyond for us, often having to hand hold the other side on multiple occasions and we cannot thank her enough.

Beside that, Amy is an extremely knowledgable, reliable and diligent lawyer. You would be lucky to have Amy on your side!

I have already recommended Amy to a friend and will continue to do so if anybody asked for recommendations.

We used Sills & Betteridge (Zenani Thomas and team) for the sale of a leasehold flat, and the purchase of a freehold house. The price was very competitive, speedy and efficient communication. They did a great job, thank you so much!

First transaction using Sills & Betteridge since the firm incorporated Campions Solicitors, of whom I have been a client for a number of years.
Trainee Legal Executive Faye Wilson (formerly of Campions), whom I had not had the pleasure of dealing with previously, was nothing short of excellent throughout. Fee quote, onboarding and day to day email communication were utterly efficient. Most importantly Faye ensured we were always ready for the other side with regards to agreeing exchange and completion - no mean feat just days before the Xmas shutdown. Completion funds were received same day and a telephone call with Faye closed down the file.
Highly recommended and will be instructing Faye for future conveyancing matters.
