Excellent Service from Sills & Betteridge

I recently bought a home from Barratt Homes in Melton Mowbray, and I used Sills & Betteridge for the conveyancing. Sanjeve Kumar and Lucy Dixon were both highly professional—efficient, responsive, and always clear in their communication. They ensured everything was completed on time and handled the legal process smoothly, which meant I didn’t have to worry about chasing things or managing delays.

Their fees were reasonable, and overall they made the experience much easier than I’d anticipated. I’d be very happy to recommend Sills & Betteridge to anyone looking for a reliable solicitor when buying or selling a home.

Jade Lawson has been dealing with my case from the start of the court process. (K.W). Throughout. She has shown full support aswell as empathy where at times felt difficult to pull through. Jade explained the process and each step of the court process. Jade was able to phone and ask questions and throughout very quick at responding to each enquiry. Jade was professional and honest throughout the service she provided. From start to finish she was incredible. Emphatic also confident with the court processes and expectations.

Biased Legal Advice.

Subject - Official Complaint Regarding Services Provided by Sandra Russell at Acclaimed Family Law in Sheffield.

In 2023, I sought assistance from Acclaimed Family Law and the services I received from Sandra Russell prior to it’s incorporation into Sills and Betteridge Solicitors.

During this particularly challenging separation from my ex-partner, who was withholding access to my son. During my consultation with Sandra Russell, I clearly articulated my desire for a 50:50 custody arrangement. To my dismay, Sandra Russell abruptly stated that "I would never get 50:50 custody" without providing any rationale for her assertion. This response left me with the impression that her judgment may have been influenced by gender bias, as I am a man seeking equal rights to parenthood.

Feeling dissatisfied with the guidance I received, I decided to terminate my engagement with Acclaimed Family Law and sought representation from Irwin Mitchell Solicitors in Sheffield. Despite the negative impact of Sandra Russell's advice on my case, which incurred further complications and resulted in further additional costs on my case down the line. I presented the same custody request to Irwin Mitchell, and after considerable effort and perserverance over a two year period, I am pleased to report that I have successfully obtained a 50:50 custody arrangement. I am now a proud father actively involved in my son's life.

I believe it is essential for your firm to be aware of the experiences of clients like myself, as they reflect on the quality of legal counsel provided. I hope this complaint will lead to a review of practices to ensure that all clients receive fair and unbiased advice.

Naturalisation to a British national.

Mrs. D. Linford has an extensive knowledge to represent me on how to achieve my BRP/ IMMIGRATION VISA. The service offered was complete and very professional. She was extremely thorough and explained everything to me at every step of the process. I would thoroughly recommend her services to anyone that needs help with immigration issues.

A superb company to trust in

A fantastic team that dealt with everything I needed in a children’s matters case. The result went in our favour and without sills & betteridge I think we would have struggled. Brilliant company

Excellent Solicitor Firm…

My experience with this Solicitor Firm was very good. My situation was handled with care and dignity.
Each step was explained in very plain and easy to understand language.
Deborah Linford handled my case and I can highly recommend her.

Absolute Disgrace

Absolute Disgrace! Just because someone gets legal aid they should represent that person the same as if paying, they still get paid. Telling someone “ if you were paying me more I would do more for you”!!!! Really!! Also assisting the respondent!!! You should be struck off!!
In answer to your response. It was my partner who this happened to & she did put in a complaint only to be told to go get another solicitor!!! She did!!!
