What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Property transactions form the backbone of the feedback for this Southsea practice, where clients return again and again over many years. Stephen Ward stands out in the accounts, handling matters for registered charities alongside a development company, and is praised for his diligence, integrity and sense of humour. Several reviewers name Joanne Dennett in connection with residential sales, highlighting her efficiency, straightforward manner and dependable advice, as well as how easy she is to reach directly.

Simon Harris features regularly as an experienced conveyancer who has guided buyers and sellers through multiple moves, including the sale of a late parent's property, earning descriptions of being polite, understanding and professional. Maria is mentioned for her work on both domestic and business purchases and sales over a long period. Chris Powell draws similar remarks for sales, purchases and an executor transaction, with prompt responses to questions and a sharp eye for detail. What recurs throughout is the confidence clients felt at every stage and the genuine care extended by support staff, with repeat instructions, charity work and executor sales forming a consistent thread.

We cannot recommend this solicitor highly enough. Simon Harris has helped us with several moves and his expertise, professionalism, and exceptional customer service were apparent each time, making us feel completely at ease and well-informed every step of the way.Our heartfelt thanks go out to him again for making our latest move not just successful, but remarkably stress-free. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sounds legal advise on both the purchase and 3 years later sale of my property. Stokes communicated well and chased the critical blocks to my sale effectively. With a lesser firm my sale would have gone on my longer costing me lots more in time and money. Would not use another solicitor.

For over 15 years- community members including registered charities and my family have engaged Stephen Ward who has been brilliant and helpful with matters of property transactions. I have always enjoyed working with Stephen as he has a great sense of humour and responsibility with integrity and diligence. We are fortunate to have him. All the Best.

Stokes solicitors were instructed to assist with resolving a dispute with a shortfall in build quality project that could not be signed off by building control, therefore with the credit consumer act on our side it was a pretty simple case. Stokes conducted some research and sent out some some letters at great cost with absolutely no benefit what so ever and we are now left in a worse situation than before. Upon raising a complaint to the solicitor concerned, he aimed to praise and justify his fee/works which didn't bare scrutiny and then bickered with me on the telephone causing me to cut the call short. Perhaps this wasn't a suitable case for the firm, however as the customer of a paid service, ultimately in my opinion, the solicitor concerned was completely inept. Very disappointed and expected better, both in results and communication following my complaint.

Jo Dennett recently dealt with the sale of our property. She was very efficient and straightforward to deal with. We would have no hesitation recommending her.

Simon Harris is a professional and experienced conveyancer. He made the whole process so simple for us and we had the confidence that he was experienced in his field and efficient. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for conveyancing purposes. Absolutely brilliant!
