Risdons assisted my family with the sale and purchase of our old & new house. Both Nicole and Liz were amazing with their correspondence and keeping us up to date as well as ensuring all matters were dealt with in a timely and professional manner. I would highly recommend them. Thank you 🙏🏻

Moving House

We have used Risdons solicitors for a number of house moves. Their service has always been prompt, courteous and professional. We recently received an unexpected overpayment from our recent house move which was a welcome surprise!
Mercedes at the Williton branch was excellent and guided us through the process with ease.

Went with Risdon Minehead branch to buy my first home. The whole process was much faster than expected and within eight weeks I had the keys to the house!

Caz and Kate were very helpful and always able to answer any questions throughout the process. They went the extra mile to make sure I had everything I required legally which included creating extra documents at my request which wouldn't usually be required for buying a property, just purely for my benefit and personal circumstances.

Overall I can't fault them. Really helpful and would definitely go with Risdon Minehead branch again.

We are very happy with our experience of using Risdon Hosegood. They dealt with everything that was required in a highly efficient manner. We found the person dealing with our conveyancing, Megan, to be very helpful and friendly. She was quick to answer all of our questions and dealt with matters in a timely and professional way. Very grateful, she made what could have been a very stressful time much easier.
