What I thought would be a complicated process was made very straightforward by Phil and his team. Dealing with the buyer's legal team who were based in Canada was a challenge due to time difference at critical parts of the process; Phil was always available even after his office had closed. Thank you very much Phil and all at Richard Reed.

We have just sold our property and purchased our new home with Richard Reed Solicitors. Nicola and Joanne were fantastic throughout the entire process! The communication and efficiency were second-to-none. Nicola and Joanne answered our questions, dealt with matters extremely promptly and made the matter of selling and buying less stressful. Could not recommend Nicola & her team at Richard Reed Solicitors enough!
