Finally, a solicitor that worked for us!

A massive thanks to Emma and all at Risdons Solicitors. Several house moves using estate agents as recommended by estate agents or new build companies to find they were more working for these companies, not representing us. We finally put our foot down, took a recommendation to use Risdons for the sale of our home/purchase of our new build. Definitely not disappointed! A company that represented us well, great communication and always happy to take a call and settle our nerves throughout the moving process. Without a doubt we would use there services again when the time comes. You should use Risdons too… Especially Emma 😉

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.
