Exceptional Service

5

Sills And Betteridge offer an outstanding level of service and customer care.

I instructed them to act on the sale of my house at the beginning of 2025 as well as the purchase of another property, simultaneously. It is safe to say that they worked at lightening speed, which rendered me speechless because I wasn't expecting such proficiency. They really are a well-oiled machine!

I have never experienced such an efficient standard of service from a solicitors before. The whole team are a force to be reckoned with, so much so that I had to pace myself to keep up with them because they are so well organised.

A huge shout out to Amy Priest who offers a personal touch to her skillset. When contracts on my house sale had exchanged she rang me personally to let me know which I found quite moving, especially in a world where digital communcation seems to dominate and everything is done via email.

I'd also like to thank Janine for all of her kindness, empathy and reassurance.

Moving house is extremely stressful and she was a very calming influence from start to finish.

I'd highly recommend Sills And Betteridge to anyone who expects high standards. You won't be disappointed.

What an incredible bunch of people.

Happy with service received for residential property purchasing

5

Amy and her team were really helpful with answering our queries and dealing with our case. I think our case wasn't straight-forward, and took extra time and work that wouldn't normally be required. Eve who works under Amy deserves a specific shout-out! We're really appreciative of the patience and support through the process. We only have heard good things about Sills & Betteridge, and we would too recommend them and will likely use them again in the future should we have need of legal services, as it the conveyancing has reflected well on the firm as a whole.

Property Sale

5

As a landlord I needed to move quickly to sell my property before the purchaser was due to be hit by the Stamp Duty increase in Apr. The overall process took 6 weeks. During which Team Amy (Eve Durrant) at Sills and Betteridge moved very quickly to meet our desired goal. Throughout all of which I was kept informed of progress and/or any hold ups by 2 way communications, both telephone and email, and led through the whole legal process with ease and professionalism. I would certainly recommend Team Amy at Sills and Betteridge to anyone for their prompt, efficient and friendly approach to selling.

Professional and Efficient Service

5

As a first time buyer without any previous experience in the conveyancing process, Amy and her team were always clear and concise with their communication, supporting me with anything I didn't understand.

Despite the additional complexities associated with purchasing leasehold, they were able to push the case through to completion quickly, despite the Christmas period.

The very best lawyer!

5

I had the privilege of instructing Amy to work on the sale of my shared ownership property and purchase of a freehold. The sale transaction was not straight forward and took us 10 months to get it over the line due to the housing associations lack of input and the vendor's solicitors, who at one point, reached a conclusion that my shared ownership property was unmortgageable - Amy was able to point them to the facts and explain how this was untrue - wow, what a life saver!

Amy persevered throughout and stayed positive, when at times we were finding it hard to stay positive about the sale ourselves. Our emails were responded to efficiently, with care and expertise. The communication was flawless and we truly felt looked after. Amy went above and beyond for us, often having to hand hold the other side on multiple occasions and we cannot thank her enough.

Beside that, Amy is an extremely knowledgable, reliable and diligent lawyer. You would be lucky to have Amy on your side!

I have already recommended Amy to a friend and will continue to do so if anybody asked for recommendations.

Extremely Hardworking an Excellent experience

5

I can't express how extremely grateful and appreciated I am with Sills and betteridge, they've been fantastic from the very beginning and right the way through. They've worked very hard and supported me throughout of which was an extremely long case. Not only my solicitors Louise Lawson and Luke Prichette worked my case but the whole team was there to support myself, answering any questions I needed, helping the case and supporting me throughout my situation. They a great team, very family oriented, making me feel very welcome and at ease. I recommend this company 100% I honestly can't thank you all enough and I truly thank you all for putting a full 100% in on my case. To Luke and Louise again same as above and I truly thank you both for everything you've helped myself and my children through

I cannot recommend Sills & Betteridge more.

I used this team as conveyancers for buying a house, and they were fantastic. As a first time buyer, the whole process was new to me, and definitely could have been overwhelming without the support of the S&B team, and Amy in particular, who was there every step of the way to explain every little detail.

For every communication sent to me there was a broken down and well explained letter explaining what was happening, and what I needed to do. Any questions I had were answered well, and all calls or emails were answered within 24 hours - Amy even answered on weekends and during evenings.

When I finally signed my contracts, the team were so helpful and enthusiastic, and were also quick to let me know that they would still be there to help me after I had moved in. Thank you everyone at Sills and Betteridge.

Given the horror stories I've heard about other conveyancing groups, I couldn't believe how amazing this team were - if you're looking for a conveyancing team to help you and make your move painless; this is the place to go.

We have just completed on our house sale and purchase. Our transaction was very long and complicated but it was handled very well by Jade, Amy and Phoebe. We were kept informed at every stage and they were very fast in liasing with all parties to make sure that there are no delays. We will definitely be using Campions again in the future.
