Fantastic service
Zoe and the team at Chris Stevenson were absolutely the best choice for my conveyancing needs. They were incredibly patient with our delays and once the mortgage offer was accepted they jumped straight on it, keeping us updated with every step along the way. Fantastic service all round.

I have used Chris Stevenson solicitors twice now in the last nine months, the first time was to sell my house, and recently the purchase of a new property.
On both occasions I was dealt with by a lady called Marzenna, an absolute star and her employers should be proud of her. Every step of the way, she explained things in terms that I could understand, and reassured me, particularly with the most recent purchase which to say the least, was challenging. I won't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone all the interactions I had with all the staff fantastic! Thanks for everything Marzenna, and everyone else.

I recently used Chris Stevenson Solicitors for the sale of my property. Zoe was brilliant and made the process extremely straight forward. She was very easy to get in touch with if I had any questions and also very quick to come back to me and/or update me when necessary. Even when there was no update Zoe would reach out to check in, which really filled me with confidence that she was on top of the sale and everything was in order. I would absolutely recommend using Chris Stevenson Solicitors. 11/10 service and support.

I want to say a big thank you to Chris, Oliva, and Shona for the completion of my two properties today. I know you don't ask me to write a review, but I would be ungrateful if I didn't write a review. I just want people to know that we still have reliable Solicitors who are willing to support your business. Thank you, Chris for going out of your way to help our Company meet the Auction deadline today. Thank you for making the completion possible within a week. This was awesome. I will use you again. Thank you so much. Abi

The service we received from Chris Stevenson Solicitors was amazing. We needed some independant advice at short notice and they went above and beyond to make sure we were given an appointment the same week. When we attended everyone was extremely friendly and professional. The advice we were given was very clear and left us with no questions to ask. We found this solicitors by chance but will definitely be using them again and would not hesitate to recommend them,
