Betrayed

DO NOT use these solicitors, I've been a client since 2005, when I was younger I was in and out of courts making this firm alot of money, recently I took my child's mother to court and sills and betteridge represented my child's mother supporting false allegations against me, so I conacted sills and betteridge saying hey, I'm a very good client and you've turned against me they responded if you don't like it find someone else to represent you in the future, and at the end of this I won and defeated them with NO solicitors, sills and betterideg abbe no loyalty because my child's mum had nevwr used them before and they are so deluded it's un real couldn't argue there way out of a empty a room, I can see ym child and have parental rights the judge absolutely anilated this team, bring back the original sills and betteridge solicitors

Wills and LPAs

We contacted Sills and Betteridge after finding them on Google. The reviews were good so we decided to instruct them with updating our wills and also LPAs. They contacted us promptly and kept us informed with progress. They are very professional but also friendly and informative. These matters can be stressful to deal with so it makes the process easy when things are explained in a clear understandable manner.

Mimi Hancott - Family law

I am incredibly grateful for the support and expertise provided by Mimi Hancott during a challenging time in my life. She was always prompt in responding to my questions and went above and beyond to ensure the best outcome for my family. She handled my custody case with sensitivity and professionalism, ensuring my child's best interests were always the priority.
I cannot thank Mimi enough for her incredible support during and after proceedings. She is not only highly knowledgeable but also compassionate, making a difficult time much easier to navigate. Her clear communication and attention to detail ensured I always felt informed and confident in the decisions being made. Thanks to her hard work, I get my daughter custody that has allowed me to move forward with peace of mind. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mimi to anyone seeking a family solicitor.
I am also, very grateful to Hannah, (Mimi's assistance) for her help throughout the process.
They both are a great team and are blessings in people's life. Their expertise, kindness, and commitment make them an exceptional choice, that cannot be describe in words.

Fantastic service

After breaking up from my ex 15 months ago suffering domestic abuse from him in the relationship and post separation. He was using out 6 year old son as a tool to control. Things got out of hand and too much and I resulted into taking legal against my ex. Never having to do anything like this before I rung round some solicitors. I spoke to Dominic at the head office and he put me in touch with Mimi. What an absolute gem she is, helped me no end with all my quieiries as well as Hannah - when Mimi wasn't available Hannah was on hand to assist. Thank you so much to the both of you for everything you have done and are still doing for me being there

Legal advice

My experience was with Harry in the personal Injury department. He was friendly and professional. He assisted me with my enquiry and helped me to get it resolved without having to get any legal action involved. Would 100% recommend as from contacting other solicitors and them not knowing how to direct me.

Dominic Lee

I came to use Dominic after a reccomendation from a barrister friend following separation from my then wife. Not being in the best of form Dominic's approach, friendliness and professionalism was incredibly reassuring.
I cannot thank Dominic enough for the outstanding support and legal guidance he provided throughout this incredibly stressful and upsetting process. From the very first consultation, I felt at ease and confident that I was in truly expert hands. His communication both written and in person was superb: clear, timely, transparent and comprehensible - not easy for a solicitor!

What truly stood out to me was his obvious deep understanding of family law and his ability to break down complex legal jargon into understandable terms. He was always available to answer any questions and took the time to ensure I was fully informed every step of the way. His approach was both professional and compassionate, striking the perfect balance between providing solid legal advice and offering emotional support when needed.

His negotiation skills proved to be exceptional. He handled delicate matters with tact and precision, always keeping my best interests in mind. Thanks to his efforts, the entire process was smoother and quicker than I expected. I also appreciated his transparency with fees and his ability to keep things cost-effective without sacrificing the quality of service.

I highly recommend Domininc, throughout this time Dominic's professionalism, integrity, dedication, intelligence and genuine care shone through like a beacon, this made all the difference in a very challenging time for me. I will forever be grateful for his expertise.
