What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

A personable and reassuring manner runs through the accounts left for this York firm, with the named principal, Rachel Roche, frequently described as kind, trustworthy and calm when guiding clients through sensitive matters. Instructions covering wills, lasting powers of attorney, estate planning and probate, including work with an international element, are recounted across relationships lasting many years, and the depth of knowledge brought to those matters is a theme that recurs. Clarity is another: several reviewers note that technical arrangements are explained in plain language, appointments proceed at a comfortable pace, and clients who were apprehensive about consulting a solicitor felt put at ease.

Efficiency is widely remarked upon, with documents prepared and concluded promptly while attention to detail is maintained, even where timescales were tight. Staff including Alex receive credit for courtesy and friendliness, and for raising practical points clients had not anticipated, such as appointing a guardian. Problems and follow-up queries are said to be dealt with quickly, and communication remains steady before and after a matter closes. Much of the feedback concerns will writing and estate administration for families locally, alongside referrals from professional contacts needing specialist support.

We had a fantastic experience with Roche Legal while arranging our wills and lasting powers of attorney. We were under significant time pressure, and they handled everything in an extremely speedy and professional manner without compromising on quality or attention to detail. The team was clear, efficient, and very reassuring throughout the whole process, explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand and keeping things moving when we really needed it. Their responsiveness and organisation made what could have been a stressful situation feel straightforward and well managed. We’re very grateful for their help and would highly recommend Roche Legal to anyone looking for reliable and efficient legal services! Thanks guys

We had a great experience with this law firm. They handled our Wills seamlessly and even reminded us to appoint a guardian for our child—something we had never even thought about! Everything was explained clearly, completed efficiently, and the service was excellent.

I've not worked with Rachel, but I have spoken with her several times. She is caring and and genuine and kind. When we have clients with needs in the UK, I refer them to her with confidence.
