Having found myself in a messy situation that required possible Court action, I cannot speak highly enough of the advice and support that I received from Bassets.
They guided me through the process and offered me the best possible advice.
Gratefully the case did not require the intervention of the Court and the situation has thankfully been resolved.

If Carlsberg did solicitors it would be Stephanie Charlesworth at Bassets. We had two properties to sell and one to buy in addition to relocating from the South East to North Yorkshire. Stephanie was professional, swift and provided excellent value for money, making a very stress free process.
Special mentions to Pauline and Tracy who assisted us also. I highly recommend Bassets and Stephanie we have been very happy with the Service provided. Paul & Christine Jackson

It took 6 months for the completion to take place. This was for a first-time buyer, and the vendor had no forwarding address to move to. Correspondence was slow, and telephone calls were not taken by conveyancer or secretary on certain days as "too busy." I found the whole process frustrating and would certainly not recommend Bassets solicitors Gillingham Kent

My wife Amanda and I instructed Bassets for a house purchase in Cornwall. Stephanie Charlesworth was appointed as our conveyancer. The whole process from start to completion has been exemplary. Every staff member at Bassets has been extremely friendly and helpful . They are so thorough and professional. I would definitely recommend these solicitors to anyone and would use again if we ever move. 5 stars 10/10 100% great service.
Merry Christmas to all at Bassets and many thanks again.
Amanda and Colin

Myself and my husband recently bought our first house. We were recommended Stephanie from our Mortgage Advisor and I just had to leave a review. From instructing Stephanie to completion on the property was 9 and a half weeks! Pauline, Stephanie's PA was brillaint too. I honestly can't fault them both. We are so grateful for the fast turn around time, meaning we were able to get the keys and moved in just in time for christmas! 🎄
5 ⭐️ from us!
Thanks again, Stephanie & Pauline.
Charlotte & Daniel Jones.

Updated: After an initial, difficult experience with a time delay, I do feel that following a conversation with Rob Weston that this was understood and my concerns resolved. Thank you Rob for taking the time to look into my issue, and providing reassurance on the matter. I now have comfort and confidence in using Bassets again.
