Testimonials

We had a fantastic experience with Lester Aldridge in buying our property, which turned out to be a very awkward buy. Shelley Cole and her team were incredible throughout, offering great advice and support. I couldn't recommend their services more highly and we will definitely be looking to use them again in the future.
Thank you Shelley and Joel especially.Close quote

I later had the pleasure of having Shelley Cole who in a stressful time of stamp duty deadline, went beyond what anyone would expect and managed to complete my purchase before the stamp duty deadline. She was sending me emails after 9pm at night which no one should be expected to do but she wanted to get my case completed for me and it was very much appreciated. Her advice was incredibly clear and easy to understand. I was just completely amazed with the level of service she provided. She deserves a huge reward from Lester Aldridge for providing beyond good service and being such an important asset to the Lester Aldridge brand. Thank you Shelley!Close quote

I cannot recommend Shelley Cole enough, Conveyancer! As if buying a property was not stressful enough then add Covid challenges, working from home and chasing a stamp duty deadline along with numerous other purchasers. I was told, given the hour that this would be impossible by associated parties I was dealing with- well despite some last-minute issues (my end) and a protracted scenario with banks and funds, Shelley got my purchase over the line with a cool, calm and collected approach - I felt every bit of advice Shelley gave me could be relied upon, my Mortgage Adviser agreed she was standalone with the service offered at this stressful time. Thank you Shelley Cole.Close quote

All questions were answered and explained in detail so that we understood each step of the process. We would highly recommend Shelley and will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you so much!Close quote

Can’t rate or recommend LA Law highly enough. We started working with them on a buy/sell of our home and they’ve been excellent throughout and post-completion. Special shout outs and thanks you to Shelley, Lauren and Olivia who have been responsive, clear and gone well beyond what was required. Look forward to working together again in future! Thank you.Close quote

As a first time buyer, I couldn't have hoped for a more proactive, attentive and diligent service from LA. Both Shelley and Oliver have worked tirelessly to ensure the transaction completed without issue and I couldn't be more grateful. It is evident they have held my best interests throughout the process and were always extremely responsive, often going above and beyond to ensure all issues were resolved promptly through to completion. Thank you Shelley & Oliver, a real credit to LA and I look forward to working with you again in the future.Close quote

We have used Lester Aldridge before with the purchase of our first flat. This time we used them again for the sale and the purchase of our new home. Both times Shelley has been a great help every step of the way. Her advice has been invaluable as has her calm nature when things were getting stressful. It is clear she takes great pride in her work and getting her clients over the finish line with the best possible outcome. You are a credit to Lester Aldridge and we will always look to use you and your firm in the future.Close quote

On behalf of Jessica and myself, we would like to thank you for your assistance in buying our first property. From day one you have been at the end of an email or a phone call constantly updating us and where we were in the process. You made things clear and offered advice along the way whilst dealing with other solicitors. Whilst that wasn't always easy, you remained professional and guided us down the right route. This was all unknown territory for Jess and I but it as been a very easy process due to your communication, understanding of our situation and the tenacity to get what we wanted. Having a local company take care of this matter was of great importance to us and we are pleased that we went through LA. We have recommended you to a colleague of mine from work as we have been so impressed. You are a credit to LA and we will be using your firm and yourself when we move again.Close quote

I couldn't have wished for a better support behind me to reassure and push this sale through. You have gone above and beyond to think outside the box and create solutions to continuous problems and requests from the other side. I have found this last 4 months the most stressful time and I never thought we were going to get there but we did it and I have you to thank for that.Close quote

Shelley Cole at Lester Aldridge has helped us over the last 8 months with the conveyancing process. We could not have asked for a better solicitor. She is meticulous and her attention to detail is exactly what you want when trying to buy a property. Her wider team, including Joel Smallman, have also been incredibly helpful throughout this process. This is the second time we have used Lester Aldridge’s services for conveyancing and we will continue to go back to them. I would highly recommend Shelley and the firm. Close quote
