Thank you

I'd like to say how grateful I am to Emma Burkinshaw and Nick Ward for their calm manner and professionalism throughout my case. From the first moment when I spoke to Nick, and the countless number of times I contacted Emma, they were available, they listened and provided the best counsel. It was a very difficult case, very stressful and at times confusing. Having Emma and Nick kept my light going. I cannot thank them enough. Very kind and most importantly, really good at what they do. Once again, I am grateful for your time and counsel throughout the legal process. I can't think of any point when they didn't respond to my queries/requests. Thank you from us, and well done :) You're Class.

These guys are professional, kind and understanding.

They dealt with a very rude team at the sellers end and handled this amazingly.

Exceptional Representation and Highly Recommended Solicitor - Marzenna

I am delighted to write this review to express our utmost satisfaction and gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Marzenna, our solicitor at Chris Stevenson Solicitors, during the purchase of our home. It is with great pleasure that we highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a skilled and dedicated solicitor.

From the very first interaction, Marzenna displayed a remarkable level of professionalism, knowledge, and commitment. Her expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process, ensuring that every aspect of the transaction was thoroughly reviewed and handled with the utmost care.

Marzenna's communication skills were exceptional, keeping us informed and updated at every step of the journey. She promptly responded to our queries, patiently explained complex legal matters, and provided us with clear and concise guidance, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Thank you, Marzenna, for your outstanding work and for going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. We are truly grateful for your assistance and will gladly recommend your services to all those in need of a reliable and dedicated solicitor.

Appalling lack of interest in my case, don't respond

Having been dealing with them now over a house purchase after setting the expectation that we're looking to move and get my tenant the information on the move date as soon as possible. I have not once got an answer to an email without chasing, and they have only replied that they are too busy. Even after chasing, they haven't provided the information I require, and I'm considering looking elsewhere. Dreadful service.

About this branch

Description

Chris Stevenson Solicitors is a legal practice that was founded by Chris Stevenson in 1994. Initially starting as a sole practitioner, Chris grew and developed the practice employing solicitors, paralegals and other support staff to ensure that clients were receiving a proper service. The firm became a partnership in 2010 when Nick Ward was appointed as a partner. During this time, the practice has gone from strength to strength, and in 2018 Hannah Eddison joined the partnership team as a salaried partner. The ethos at Chris Stevenson Solicitors has remained the same throughout. We aim to provide clear and informed legal advice in relation to any matter in which we are instructed. Whether the advice provided is on a private client or Legal Aid basis we are confident that at the conclusion of your matter, you will be satisfied with the service you have been provided.
