I am absolutely delighted with the service I received from Hannah Richards at Porter Dodson regarding with the sale of my property. Extremely informative from the very start. Providing updates along the way and responding to enquiries very quickly and efficiently. As with all sales it can be quite stressful especially at the last hurdle, but Hannah's reassurance and friendly and professional manner kept me calm throughout the process. I would highly recommend Hannah and will certainly be in touch with my next purchase. Well done Hannah!

Reena Raval is well known as the most knowledgeable and experienced conveyancing solicitor in the South West. That reputation, in our experience, is fully justified. Reena grasped all the issues and negotiated, on our behalf, with ‘the other side’. Reena is kind, efficient and experienced. My wife and I are very, very grateful and recommend her without hesitation.
