Wills and Probate, helpful and professional

Sarah Soo at the Beeston office took over my late aunt's case after my solicitor at the Derby office retired. She was like a 'whirlwind', so knowledgeable, kind, caring and yet professional. As I was the named executor she kept me informed by email or phone all the way through, explaining and advising as we went along.

My experience with Simran was nothing short of professional and would highly recommended Simran for all matters relating to wills. My solicitor was patient and supportive and assisted me perfectly in relation to all matters concerning my will. I went in feeling apprehensive and not knowing what to expect to having left feeling supported and well informed.

Handling Estate for Inheritance Tax and Probate application

I have Beeston office over many years usually for purchase or sale of property. I recently had to ask for their assistance in dealing with my late wife’s estate with regard to inheritance tax and probate.
The lady I dealt with was thoughtful, professional and efficient.
From my experience I would have no hesitation in recommending Rotheras for this service.

Personalized and excellent service

Safina Metcalfe and Jonna Merriman at the Nottingham branch are invaluable representatives at Rotheras. Their professional and personalized approach to both my house sale and new house purchase made the experiences less stressful. Great communication, speedy responses and thorough address of even the smallest details. They made my journey secure and well informed. I recommend Rotheras to both my family and friends, including my business partners. Outstanding service and they really do go the extra mile!

Very professional ..

This review is for a different branch.

I was very pleased to see Jasmin again when I needed to make some changes to my will. She is a very friendly lady who immediately puts you at ease which in turn makes it easier to discuss personal things. Jasmin is knowledgeable and made suggestions and pointed things out that I may not have considered otherwise. I’m extremely pleased with the service I received from Rothera Bray and Jasmin Marshall and would have no hesitation in recommending both the company and Jasmin to others.

This review is for a different branch.

Really impressed with the way Chelsey and her colleagues handled my case. Straight-talking, on it from the start, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. Made the whole process less stressful and got a result I didn’t think was possible. If you’re in a tough spot, especially with driving matters, they’re definitely who you want in your corner.

I have received excellent service from Rothera Bray solicitors. They have helped me with probate on my parent’s estate including the selling of their property. The property had equity release and they have handled all aspects of this process very well. They kept me updated And were always on hand for any questions.

We have used Rothera in the past, called for a quote for a house sell & was told for Legal fee it was £1200 + VAT, yet when the estate agent requested a quote from Rothera they were told for Legal fee it's £1000 + VAT. That's a £240 difference in price, which is very disappointing.

With a bit of a rocky start at the Mapperley branch, I was transferred to the Beeston branch with Sandy overseeing my house purchase and the service improved dramatically and was fantastic.

I cannot thank Sandy and the Beeston branch enough, they were very helpful guiding me through the process and were available for questions over the phone when needed. Very professional group of people and made my property purchase as stress free as possible.

Highly recommend this branch.
