In my opinion Devonalds Solicitors offer a first class service. I have found the staff friendly and efficient. They are legally knowledgeable and gave clear and practical advice. I have dealt with this company for many years and I would recommend this firm to somebody else.

We engaged Devonalds to act on our behalf in obtaining a Grant of Probate. The whole experience went smoothly from start to finish and concluded a lot quicker than what we had expected and to our total satisfaction.
Well done to Joel and the team for being so proactive and professional in his/their approach. We really did appreciate his/their support and guidance.
We would definitely use Devonalds again. Highly recommended!

Devonalds have exceeded expectation on every transaction to date. I recently used Devonalds on a few purchases and sales as my previous solicitor was under performing and I wont be going anywhere else from now on. Responsive, professional, knowledgeable, understanding and friendly at all times.

Devonalds did the conveyancing for the sale of my house recently and exceeded my expectations with their professionalism. They were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and one of the best things (I found) was that I had an open line of communication with Tania Mitchell who was in charge of my sale. She was approachable and helpful and always responded quickly to any queries I had. She kept me informed every step of the way. The Devonalds app was an excellent way to communicate and easy to use.

A client

We met in the Pontypridd office with a solicitor based in the Treorchy office. Prior to the appointment, I took some paperwork to the Talbot green office to be photocopied and sent to the Treorchy office. The secretary only copied one side of the sheets so when we arrived for our appointment, the solicitor did not have all the info required.
It took them 2½ months to complete a draft of the required task and they got some names wrong on it. When these were corrected, and everyone was happy, they advised us to print the document ourselves for signing!! Really??? The document had a big watermark saying ‘draft’ across it so I sincerely doubt that this was the norm.
They had not sent us a bill almost 5 months after our initial appointment and it’s only because we need some original paperwork returned that we have made contact to pay them.
I am not impressed with Devonalds at all. When you consider the industry they are in, I would expect a better, more efficient service. I will not use them again for any service whatsoever as the service we received leaves a lot to be desired.
