Brilliant service

Really good solicitors to work with, everything was explained clearly and concisely. I was kept in the loop at all times and when I needed to contact them, all of the staff were very helpful. There was a slight hiccup, but as soon as it was caught it was resolved within 12 hours!

Excellent service and great communication.

I used the services of Risdon's Solicitors recently in connection with the sale of my property and was delighted with the service they provided.

Michelle was both professional and helpful. Communication was excellent and I was kept updated of every development. All of my questions and queries were answered quickly and comprehensively. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Fantastic service.

Without a doubt the best Conveyancing. solicitors I have dealt with in 34 years. Having been involved in the moving industry and as a client, they have been the most efficient, communicative and attentive people I’ve ever dealt with. I would highly recommend them.

Excellent service.

I was recommended Risdons to use for a house sale that I was POA for. All went smoothly until a serious glitch occurred that was not our fault. However, a solution was found using common sense and all was completed satisfactorily.
All the Staff I dealt with were very friendly and approachable, especially Charlie Pole.

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.
