I had a very stressful and frustrating experience with Beeston Shenton Solicitors while purchasing my first home. From the beginning, the process was plagued with delays and poor communication. It took over a month for them to even begin progressing with my case due to system compatibility issues with the seller’s solicitors—something I was never informed about until the sellers themselves asked if the purchase was still going ahead.
My case was then passed to another solicitor, who began asking for documents that had already been provided. On one day, I received emails from four different people, each claiming they were now handling my case. I was asked to email documents back, only to be told months later that they needed to be posted—without even being given an address until I followed up myself.
I had to chase Beeston Shenton repeatedly, not only for my own updates but also on behalf of the seller’s solicitors, who were not receiving responses for weeks. My own emails were often ignored or met with one-line replies that offered no real help. Not once did any solicitor call me to explain the process or offer reassurance. Everything was handled via email, which made the experience feel cold and impersonal.
Toward the end, I was told I needed to deposit £6,500 more than expected—an incredibly stressful surprise. After completion, I was then asked to pay an additional £130 for the Land Registry fee, even though I had already received a completion certificate. I followed up, but weeks later, I still haven’t received a response and am now worried about the status of my Land Registry.
What should have been an exciting milestone turned into a five-month ordeal (with no chain on either side) due to their inefficiency and lack of professionalism. I would not recommend Beeston Shenton Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable, communicative, or supportive legal services.

It was a rush to complete on a property purchase from auction and they really went above and beyond to make it happen within the timeframe. It’s not very often I feel that solicitors really earn their money but this was an exception. The sheer amount of work to get the purchase completed in such a short time frame makes me wonder if they ever slept - exemplary service! Well done and thank you!

All of the qualities I have selected accurately describe the excellent service received from our solicitor Juliette Carter.
Also, as I was disabled due to a recent hip replacement and was unable to attend at the office for witness signatures of our Wills, Juliette and her Trainee, Saskia, visited us at our home to witness them. This was very much appreciated.

For years I have been putting off making a Will, but having decided to approach Beeston Shenton I wish I had done it earlier. I received a warm welcome at every stage, from making the initial phone call, to meeting with my solicitor Juliette Carter, through to the final Will signing. Juliette was excellent in understanding what I wanted to include in the Will and answered all my questions. Communication and responses were swift and efficient and my Will was completed within days. I feel confident to return to Beeston Shenton for legal work in the future and highly recommend this excellent firm.

I telephoned regarding the free will service. Arranged an appointment. Juliette discussed what I wanted and the draft of my Will was received the next day. A further appointment to sign the draft Will and it was all completed very easily. Everything was explained fully. Overall an excellent solicitor all dealt with very professionally. I am extremely pleased with the service I received. I now have piece of mind.

Beeston Shenton came highly recommended from friends who work for other Solicitors within Stoke on Trent and have lived up to all expectations.
Very Professional, advice second to none, always approachable and have always been able to speak to Paul, Natalie or Olivia.
Natalie and Olivia work alongside Paul and are aware of your case and the ladies were spot on, so I knew when I spoke to either on the phone I would get the answers I needed or my message would be passed on and dealt with accordingly.
I started my process not in the best place. I am about to leave it feeling a whole different person. I have been completely looked after every step of the way and although you have your own journey it helps when you feel confident about your Solicitors.
Paul Shenton
From the day I walked into his meeting room I felt at ease. So Professional, kind and very helpful, he spoke to me on my level but it was obvious the work being carried out behind the scenes.
My experience was outstanding, we got our outcome and I am leaving Beeston Shenton very happy.
Paul Shenton is the best at what he does, his team work tirelessly and I would 1000% recommend Beeston Shenton
Thank you Mr Paul Shenton

I was going through my first house purchase recently, and used Veronica at Beeston Shenton having known one of her colleagues for a number of years.
What a decision it was. As someone who can't do admin to save my life, the calm and detailed approach from Veronica was just what I needed to guide me through the early stages.
Then as d day was approaching we got a last minute call to say further up the chain were delaying. Panic stations set in as I could not afford to go over the deadline for increased stamp duty. But as she was through the whole process, Veronica was calm, composed and incredibly supportive, ensuring she would be fighting tooth and nail to get it done the following week. She did, and now I'm in my first home and my 2 year old daughter has her first play room.
People dread the word solicitor quite often, but I would whole heartedly recommend Veronica to anyone who is moving house. She probably got quite frustrated with how much of a beginner I was, but it never showed, she held my hand when needed, gave me a kick up the backside when needed, and fought tooth and nail to secure me and my daughter our home!
Thank you Veronica, you didn't just complete a transaction that day, you set me and my daughter up for our future!

We are so grateful that we have chosen the right solicitor, Veronica Du'Quesnay-Brown and her team of Beeston and Shenton Solicitors, for purchasing a property. They are all so friendly and helpful in all ways. We cannot ask for more with their excellent service and their helping hands all the way through the completion of the purchase.
As a very happy and satisfied client, we can highly recommend them. Thank you very much.
