Rutherfords LLP

We used Rutherford’s services recently when arranging and signing a commercial lease on a new property we were relocating to. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Everything was dealt with promptly and efficiently. We were kept updated throughout the whole process and we were provided clear information and advice. Nothing was too much trouble, emails and phone calls were dealt with very quickly and we are extremely happy with our experience and would highly recommend Rutherford’s.

My parents have contacted Rutherfords for a quote for a service provided by their conveyancing department on 7 separate occasions. They have called that many times over a 7 day period that the receptionist knew my mothers first name. The solicitor concerned has still failed to return their calls giving various excuses for why she has not yet returned their calls even though the receptionist has emailed her several times. She has either left early or they were told she is working from home! They have now taken their business to a company that did return their call. I would not recommend Rutherfords to anybody.

Avoid the firm if you can. This might be a strong word, but one of their solicitors can be described as unethical. Blackmailing is the main method of communication as opposed to solving client's problems. The longer the process is, the more hours they can charge from their clients.They also provide confirmation not based on the factual evidence but untruthful comments. Those evidence shall be provided to the regulators to demonstrate they are not complaint with some basic standards. I would not be surprised to see the firm out of business one day.

Rutherfords looked after both our house purchase and sale. All staff involved were professional and kept us informed constantly throughout the process. Always happy to answer any questions i had in a friendly manor nothing was ever too much trouble.
Very highly recommended :-)

We recenctly had our Wills drawn up, during the pandemic. I was very impressed with the courteous service we received from Sarah Hassall. As i have hearing problems, even with hearing aids, Sarah spoke very clearly and didn't rush through any conversations I had. She also returned my calls and email queries very promptly. It made the whole process easy to understand and complete.
I couldn't recommend this company too highly, and should the need arise. would have no problem in returning to them for their advice.

Dealt with the purchase of our 1st home and would 100% use again! Very professional and always kept up to date. Everything went through smoothly, couldn’t fault a thing. Very much recommended.

Rutherfords have dealt with both a sale and purchase of a new property.
Easy to deal with, quick to respond and always kept up to date with progress. Highly recommended.

Why only 3 stars?
The conveyancing of a property was very slow, clumsy, disjointed and information had to be constantly pushed for and so unfortunately dilutes the 5 stars achieved by the Will department specifically Rebecca Taylor who was superb. Prompt, informative and always prepared to advise with a complicated Will. Thanks Rebecca.
