   When the senior solicitor/owner is incredibly unprofessional, that really is all you need to know about this company. They will happily send invoices for payment incredibly quickly but will not forward any information, sort out issues, or respond to emails / phone calls unless continuously chased.. and even then the responses are lackluster to say the least. The conveyancing department are just as bad and are not interested in anything you have to say. Please for your own sanity, do not use this company. We will be seeking advice from the legal ombudsman regarding this company and their incompetence which has now forced us to pay thousands more than quoted by other companies.

   We are so grateful that we have chosen the right solicitor, Veronica Du'Quesnay-Brown and her team of Beeston and Shenton Solicitors, for purchasing a property. They are all so friendly and helpful in all ways. We cannot ask for more with their excellent service and their helping hands all the way through the completion of the purchase. As a very happy and satisfied client, we can highly recommend them. Thank you very much.

   I had a very stressful and frustrating experience with Beeston Shenton Solicitors while purchasing my first home. From the beginning, the process was plagued with delays and poor communication. It took over a month for them to even begin progressing with my case due to system compatibility issues with the seller’s solicitors—something I was never informed about until the sellers themselves asked if the purchase was still going ahead. My case was then passed to another solicitor, who began asking for documents that had already been provided. On one day, I received emails from four different people, each claiming they were now handling my case. I was asked to email documents back, only to be told months later that they needed to be posted—without even being given an address until I followed up myself. I had to chase Beeston Shenton repeatedly, not only for my own updates but also on behalf of the seller’s solicitors, who were not receiving responses for weeks. My own emails were often ignored or met with one-line replies that offered no real help. Not once did any solicitor call me to explain the process or offer reassurance. Everything was handled via email, which made the experience feel cold and impersonal. Toward the end, I was told I needed to deposit £6,500 more than expected—an incredibly stressful surprise. After completion, I was then asked to pay an additional £130 for the Land Registry fee, even though I had already received a completion certificate. I followed up, but weeks later, I still haven’t received a response and am now worried about the status of my Land Registry. What should have been an exciting milestone turned into a five-month ordeal (with no chain on either side) due to their inefficiency and lack of professionalism. I would not recommend Beeston Shenton Solicitors to anyone looking for reliable, communicative, or supportive legal services.

   I recently had the pleasure of working with Veronica Duquesnay-Brown and the wonderful team at Beeston Shenton Solicitors Ltd during the purchase of our home, and I cannot express how grateful we are for their exceptional service.From the very beginning, Veronica was incredibly professional, attentive, and responsive. She guided us through each step of the process with clarity and patience, making what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and manageable. Her expertise and knowledge of the legalities involved were evident, and she always took the time to address any questions or concerns we had, no matter how small. The entire team at Beeston Shenton Solicitors Ltd was equally impressive. Every interaction we had with them was marked by their friendly demeanour and willingness to help. They worked diligently to ensure that all aspects of our house purchase were handled smoothly and efficiently. It was clear that they genuinely cared. I highly recommend.

   Mike Anson has been an exceptional individual to deal with, originally recommended through my house builder I was a little skeptical but as Mike had dealt with this particular site before, he already knew any standard pitfalls and what to look for. He was also the best quote I could find, and has had a lot of experience when dealing with new builds and the help to buy process. I've never known anyone so diligent and hardworking, he would send me emails at silly times, even on weekends due to his immense workload, but then was always on hand if I had questions via phonecall or email, no matter how silly due to being a first time buyer, he was incredibly patient and made the very stressful process of buying a new build property a complete breeze. I would not hesitate to hire him again in the coming years if I move house again. I don't usually leave reviews on things, but wanted to on this occassion due to the excellent service provided.

   Mike Anson & Katie were great throughout in the matter of my house purchase. Handled all of my questions and queries promptly, easily contactable on phone and email and all communication was clear. Completion happened on my property before 10am, which was a nice bonus. Online platform also useful to track progress. Great service and value for money throughout, would happily use Beeston Shenton again!

   What can I say about this association. Helped me massive amounts and helped me progress my game, Russell Dutton in particular. Got my name out there and pushed me into the semi pro game, helping me step up a league twice in the last two seasons, my confidence is growing thanks to this and I am improving playing with top players, I am confident I will have a good career with the help of Russ and co.
