Porter Dodson Solicitors have been a great help to us for the past 12 years. We have recently been very lucky to have Reena Raval from the Sherborne branch helping us with a property. Reena kept us updated at every step, explained everything very clearly with great communication and made the whole process feel completely manageable for us to understand. Reena dealt with our paperwork very swiftly and kept us updated with clear costings. Highly recommended!
