Roy, Joe and the team were brilliant in handling our case. Having seen how other in the industry can be, I would only go to Stephen Rimmer from now on. They did everything they could to make sure our sale/purchase progressed as quickly as possible.

Very good meeting with Patricia and clearly written correspondence afterwards. Would certainly use firm again. The only reason not giving five stars was the admin beforehand, which was chaotic. In particular there is an error in the letter explaining which documents can be used for the on-line ID service. It should include driving license in the list, but did not. It could be easily corrected so other clients get a much better initial impression.

Stephen Rimmer was very useful, quick and efficient.
I used their services to buy and sell my first property and will be proud to continue working alongside such a professional team. I would always speak highly of Leta Kerin the individual that would work endlessly for my individual needs.

My experience with Stephen Rimmer was truly outstanding. A massive thank you to Roy, Hannah and Teresa, you were all really professional, efficient and honestly made my house buying process as smooth as it could possibly be. I had experienced many hurdles in the process due to the nature of the purchase however Stephen Rimmer were the constant, ensuring things get done as quickly as possible and reassured me when needed.
I highly recommend and I couldn’t thank them enough. Means a lot to me!

Would never use again .
Originally went with this firm to buy my flat and all went fine .
When it came to sell my flat I went with another solicitor as they were cheaper and I was recommended them by family.
Then the trouble started . I found out that stephen rimmer solicitors hadn't signed the freehold over into my name when I purchased the flat which held up the sale by about 3 months ( nearly loosing my buyer ) After contacting stephen rimmer solicitors to sort this out , it seemed liked I was being fobbed off and 2 months after initially contacting them I phoned them to see what was going on only to be told it wasn't down to them to sort out. One poor excuse was that they had just gone from a paper file system to computer file system 🤦 well that's not good enough, as I said , it held up the sale of my flat and cost me quite a bit of money in the process and I didn't even get a sorry 😐 not even a refund for the signing of the freehold to my name back , which was about £100 ish I think

Avoid as they cannot be trusted. They lie and are incompetent in conveyancing.

AWFUL AND APPALING. I simply came here to enquire on behalf of myself and in support of brave ex-RAF Fraud Investigator John Alexander Paterson and I was greeted by the rudest Receptionists on two occasions. Apart from the fact that I want to take legal action against Police Brutality after my face was in the paper as a missing person and I had been assaulted right there outside the Tourist Information Desk near the steps of Stephen Rimmer in Hyde Gardens and dragged in handcuffs and reported as "safe" in the local paper, I met John Alexander Paterson the following year and this brave man has put Stephen Rimmer Corrupt Solicitors on notice. I have been a victim of corruption and this brave man's life is in danger for exposing corruption from within. He has a lot of supporters.

Noel Martin is a brilliant conveyancer, I have recommended him to a few of my clients and they have all been really impressed at the service he offers. He always answers the phone, his costs are reasonable and he simplifies the legal jargon. I will be happy to recommend my clients to him long term. Thank you Noel.
